When to go solo?

[MiningBuddy]

When would you say is a good time to go solo.
Interested in hearing your stories of luck and misfortune, especially when compared to your estimates.
How do you feel given the current difficulty level and are you considering joining a pool in the future if difficulty levels continue to rise at a large %?

 I would say go solo when you think you can find a block or two in a week.  You'd need like 4-5G hashes to get a block a week on average with the current difficulty level...

When you get your money back from buying the hardware.

if you wait it will only get harder. That is all.
