Is it possible to realistically break even mining anymore?

You could try building a rig like these brave souls!  Fairly easy to ROI when you make your own shiz =)

Good luck! Have fun! Learn a bunch!

Except that none of those designs work because Avalon is a scam and never sent their 1/2 million chips to the designers or end users.

I think that most of the people building mining hardware will likely use it for their own mining purposes as long as it makes a huge profit.

On top of that you have to keep in mind that mining profitability will drop first for the people having higher electricity cost. So if you are in Europe you will likely not be among the people that profit from buying mining equipment.

The weird thing is I know that man. That's Rich Paul from Keene, NH and he's a freestater originally from MI. I knew him fairly well when I lived in NH a few years back, he used to sell silver among other things. He's now in jail for a year for marijuana civil disobedience among other things.

I've pretty much given up on buying any new ASIC equipment and breaking even.   My existing 2 rigs just mine LTC and even thats barely worth diddly.   I've resorted to buying btc between the exchanges as my primary source of all, if any, profit in this game.

So they made the world a little bit safer again by putting him away. I mean he clearly looks like a hardened criminal who's just waiting to go on reefer madness killing and raping kids and women. Just see the violent look in his eyes, well done law enforcement
