Where i live I dont have to pay for electric its wrapped up in the rent, I know everything in life cost something. My position is that i didnt have to shell out my pay from my job to get started mining. I used what I have to start with and will hopefully be able to use my earnings to make a earn a gpu. It will take me a long time but am willing to do so, to keep my cost low. Between rent, bills and kids I cant afford to shell out $300 Card to mine faster. It would be nice but for me its not possible. Im in the poor house and found Ltc Mining and Trading on Btc-e to be a good hobby, I dont look at it a a source of income. It will probably take me a year to make anything off it
What is your config? and what do you use to mine (cgminer, guiminer..)? am a bit curious
I have 1- Athlon 64 X2 2.3ghz- ScryptMiner ~4.4 Kh/s and 1- Pentium Duo Core 2.7ghz -ScryptMiner ~14.8kh/s and sometimes i get to use a laptop 1.6 Ghz Cpu- ScryptMiner ~1.3-2 Kh/s
