GPU Mining
Okay gpu mining is old trend which not profitable anymore

for example if you buy solar panels for electricity

and electricity is provided by solar panels, can a reasonable income be achieved with 7-8 GPU cards such as the RX 580?

God knows, I wonder if you would make more money selling the electricity back to the grid.

nope
https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-calculator/amd-rx-580-8gb

rx580 = $0.12/day or 3.57/month
will take years to pay off the gpu alone

and it takes more than just solar panels
you need the inverters to turn it into 110/220v

Sadly, gpu mining from a fresh start is pretty dead.

You can tell this easily by the fact we aren't all doing it and you can actually buy gpu's.

Sorry, but I think you missed the boat on that one.
why not ? if i can access free electricity i can profit. no matter what with solar panels

nobody wants to work so gpus work for me.

if you can get free everything, you would be better off doing almost anything else

Well, how much electricity do your, I hope, existing panels produce and do you already have all the gpu's?

Because until you cover the cost, you aren't making a penny.

Personally I stopped mining years ago so not sure what options there are right now, but I know it pulls a load of power.

if he has everything, and can make enough power to run 8x rx 580 24/7, it would only be $28.56 a month profit

Yeah if they have everything already it's an extra few bucks, if it's worth the noise and gest build up is another question entirely.

1000W is going to be 350-500, 3000W inverter will be 350-500. Then there's wires, accessories, batteries, tools, etc.

"Free" in terms of not using grid power only. For beginners its every expensive. Gpu mining is likely dead anyway.
i need to built passive income. just machines working for me would be good idea.


I can't find a job in the university department I graduated from because nepotism is rampant here. 😭

But if I work for 7 years as a cashier, maybe I can buy a house or something.
Working is very bad, they literally exploit you like slaves jobs like that. 🤮

I think the only way is to buy a house and rent it out. for a decent passive income

This stock market business is gambling Even if it doesn't tire you physically, it tires you mentally. too much plans and thoughts can be painful.

Sounds like you wasted your money on a useless degree, fear not, there are lots of well paying jobs you could apply for, though most will be blue collar with a side of danger or require you to begin as an apprentice.

But yeah, work sucks, but passive incomes are for those who can afford to set it up sadly so buckle down work 3 jobs of you have to to build up the capital.

Good luck.
We were promised jobs when graduated forced to study at uni but it turns out they were keeping us asleep

Anyway, this is getting way off topic

I will either rent a house or examine a passive income model that allows you to earn money without having to deal with people. GPU mining seems not in the case

instead of use muscle power. There will definitely be a method that can be done using machines.

Not one that doesn't cost money.

Maybe, stop being lazy and just go work until you have said money?

Out of curiosity, what was your degree in?
i will eventually, im just not lazy i need a plan how to spend earned money for more money

otherwise my 7-8 years of hardworking rendered useless. thats why i need to be %100 sure about my income model

it gives me the motivation for the work i have no motivation for work if i am slave forever in my life. living alone etc.

IF i found something i go for. im super motivated for it and spend rest of my live on that work just almost none guarantees it.

There is no such thing as merit here Nepotism is at unreal level. i have 4 years uni degree ''Bachelor's degree '' i think not sure about the term we use 4 years on here.


You get a job, they exploit you like a slave, they even fire you because they just dont like you or you not curry favour them.

The dictator in power made universities useless in order to gain votes. got 200+ It's like it doesn't really mean anything

Since I'm not planning on getting married anyway If you show any weakness at all, she will leave you and pay you alimony, no need., a white-collar job where I handle everything myself would be pure hell. i mean you do all the jobs %100 not %50 %50 is another level of hardness ngl. not mention when you got sick nobody going to help you. nobody going to show affection even its selfish nature. and fake, These are things that may not sound important, but they are very important. for mental health.


It's really bad to work under people who don't even have a primary school degree.
you heard that right


The interest rate is very high here right now. But there is so much inflation that it doesn't make sense anymore.
