I was browsing through old bitcointalk posts and there was a similar post like this one.
There a fellow was asking pretty much the same thing albeit about bitcoin mining and questioning if it was worth it as he wwwas only getting half a bitcoin a day with a few gpus.
If a question is strictly about mining ( It´s better to buy coins straight from an exchange but if this option is not available for any reason) the answer until now has always been YES , mining is good. That the answer has been positive until of now of course can not be taken as an indication that the answer is positive now or at anytime in the future.
My advice is to take mining as a fun hobby that´ll most probably have financial benefits aswell.
This.
If you dont need to sell your mined coins to pay for your hardware, have knowledge to fix things when something goes wrong, just go for it.
