How long will it take to earn enough Monero to pay for the computer and the electricity to run it?
You would have more Monero if you just bought it rather than a computer. You'd never mine more Monero with that computer than you'd have by just buying Monero rather than a computer.
Unless you're paying less than seven cents a kilowatt for your electricity, you'll always be better off buying any crypto, not just Monero, than mining it, even if you already own mining equipment.
I know there are people that are mining at a loss to 'help the network', which is nothing more than giving their money to a multi-national energy corporation rather than just buying crypto for themselves. Idiots.
