first, stay away from Ponzi & HYIP program who offer "double your bitcoin", 140% in a week", 1-2% a day" and etc
that programs will take your bitcoin and run when they think they already make profit
since mining (and cloud mining) is hard to get profit anymore, i wouldn't recommend it too
if you want make profit, maybe you can lend some of your bitcoin to user who need a loan here :
