A) Have a sizeable amount of expendable/surplus money you and any significant other are willing to risk.
B) Look at it like going to a Casino: If the stars and everything else is right you may come out ahead. Or not. If you cannot afford to lose the investment DON'T DO IT!
C) Be aware that said money *might* not generate a profit.
D) If happy with risking said monies, look at where the miners are to be located. Local to you? Hosted?
E) If local to you, find a building with very good ventilation, stable internet, and at least 100-200KW of power to start with.
F) Crunch the numbers: Cost of electricity, building rent/hosting fees, cost of miners.
G) RUN IT AS A LICENSED BUSINESS! Yes, you will pay taxes however you in turn get to write-off expenses such as rent, cost of power, cost of the miners themselves (IRS views them the same as lowly office PC's).
H) If you think the risk is worth it, take a deep breath and jump in!

how many money you have to invest? look no further than a antminer s9, tell us more about your electriciyt, but with current profit you should be safe evene at 20 cent

you probably need an air cooling system that is efficient, to remove the heat, you probably need a correct place for your miner, and you need to by PSU unit to power all these stuff

if you want to mine altcoin see the altcoinsection, which is more remunerative now than mining bitcoin directly

Unless you have exceptionally low prices for a KwHr or an ASIC that no-one else has  Tongue, you should probably be looking for a "young" altcoin that is still in the CPU/GPU stage.

signature campaigns annoy me.

Your first post is this ? Can't you help yourself ? Did you even try use Google. ? I'm sorry but I don't take you seriously at all. If you really had the kind of money you need to make a farm you wouldn't be asking here like that. Do you have at least $1500 ? That's going mining entry level. $2500 mid level or perhaps high. Asic is $1000+ minimum.

You telling about a farm so multiple the above numbers by 10 for a farm size. Also if you go asic you up against actual farms with dedicated buildings. Just going mine altcoins. Stay away from Bitcoin.

I think it is not profitable with the ASICS anymore. You need to invest in a mining rig, they sell for about 2200 dollars on ebay , search there ethereum mining rig and you will have it ready for you to ship. I suggest you only invest money you can afford to lose in this business as it is a very risky one. So for me the entry point for a mining rig is about 2000-2500 dollars.

Do not understand what to buy
Video cards usually use the normal serial (for both games and regular work), but in July of 2017 began to appear in the special line of graphics cards for mining with NVIDIA P106-100 and P104-100 (similar to serial GTX GTX 1060 and 1080). They are adapted for hashing and different from the serial great hasraton issued by the (speed of production), but at a guarantee — 3 months. Graphics P106-100 and P104-100 is already in the open market. But because of the very small warranty period data the model line has not gained much popularity and miners.

If you really are willing and persistent about building a farm, then you should take into consideration that you are going to risk everything; your money, your time, and efforts. Before you think of building such a thing, take a moment and sit with yourself and come up with a wise decision.

Building a farm is not easy at all. You need to do a study about how much money you will be needing, which hardware to use, which place you are going to mine in, and the cost of the electricity, and so on.
