Yes, if you believe in the project.  I mine Flux and also run several Flux
nodes (they are decentralized compute) - to get away from big tech monopolies
like Amazon.  I have been working with that project for a few years now and
have over $3k in gains and really have not invested a penny other than some
time and hardware cycles.

Yeah, I know some people like to downsize when they get older.  Not me. 
Having too much space isn't a problem that I acknowledge.  That is like
someone complaining about having too much money.  I can always find crap to
put in extra rooms, etc.  :)

What is really crazy is there are people around here that will spend hundreds
per month to rent storage space for their crap vs just getting a bigger place
to live.
