The mining sub-forum is the place for mining advice.
Bear in mind that buying and holding is generally more profitable than mining.

Your question gets asked several times a week. Basically, my advice is that if you have to ask that question, then you should not spend any money on mining. Rather than repeating myself, I'll just point you to post by the last person that asked the same question: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=743149.0

Do math and ROI on machines. If you are lucky with decent electricity you can pull ROI on machines.
If you have that capital right now I would think about buying BTC .... wait a month or so and hopefully then buy even more mining gear. BTC right now is at a price great for buyers.

Even with wanting to mine which i do and love, i think you will be happy in 1-2 months when you trade coins for miners. If it goes how i think you will have a decent percent extra from bitcoin's going up in price once we are through what ever is going on. You might get one for fun and to play with get familiar with. It is addictive ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) but price of BTC is so attractive its hard to ignore for buyers right now.

Nice decision. If you are looking for fun, you can buy miners as many as you want. But you shouldn't expect to get profits.

None is the mining right now is profitable, buying BTC directly is a better investment.

yeah, buying and holding bitcoins is still better because on mining as the difficulty increases the lower the profit you'll get, and you'll probably wont earn anything.

Try to calculate the earnings before start mining. If your electricity cost if cheap, then you may get good profit. If you want to make some profit now, just invest some in Cex.io . Try to sell it when the price increases.

You have a good amount for mining. So you can start own mining. If you want to start mining with any other pools than i suggest to mine with Genesis-mining. I am miing with them for last two months and the profitability level is good. You can get more information from: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=602022.new#new

Buy and hold is safer, but mining can earn you more if you time things right. Not to mention mining makes bitcoin work, so your helping the network. It's a tough call, depends on your tolerance for risk. If you do mine, I would suggest you do not buy a pre-order miner, as they come late, under-spec, or never at all.

Buy mining gadget that mine at a higher rate like 30m/s scrypt or 400 gh/s, you will enjoy your mining and quick return on your investments.

So if you are expecting to get loss with buying 1 ASIC, you will get 10000 times more loss for buying 10000 ASICs.
