Are Bitcoins Worthwhile?

[btcinstant]

You can't beat what bitcoins offers trust me this is amazing stuff. Get involved in some aspect of it you don't have to be in "all" aspects just some part.

Enjoy!

1.) Bitcoins are fun.
2.) They are revolutionary.
3.) Bitcoins are the future.

4.) Bitcoins are here to stay (hopefully).

At the very least, they cannot be un-invented.

Is it lucrative? Oh, just show your brand new and shiny GPU to your GF and tell her that it's exclusively for mining and she can't have fun rendering on it, because you don't want to go below xxx mega-hashes per second; suddenly she'll become nicer than ever before, haha.
I still have a lot of reading to do, but the most important thing: you can't go wrong with mathematics... plus I like the idea of nerds becoming economists. :-]

@jago25_98, wherever there's risk and some hope for gain (or at least a hope for a lack of loss), there's speculation; for example I'm speculating that I'll live another day, but I can't be 100% sure that I will.

lucrative...that's the problem...over here I pay about 20 (Euro-)cent per kWh, so I think building a dedicated mining rig is not reasonable. That's why I'm after those cycles, when average machines are idling. Maybe it makes more sense, when you don't have to buy an expensive graphics adapter...
