i was asking around in other threads about exactly this problem... that mining at an entry level is probably completely dead.
thanks for sharing your experiences 
what are you planning to do now?
will you try to stay in the "industry" somehow?
will you buy bitcoins or start mining somehow?
i have read about cloud mining, i am really interested in it now. is that something you would try? looks like you don't have the hassle of building, maintaining, updating a miner, but you can just rent it from those who have comparative advantage: the cloud miners.
look, for example here's a review. https://cloudmining.guru/wp/category/reviews/
the review is even comparing and ranking the existing services.
what do you think?
or is it a dead end? what's the general view on cloud mining services?
