AI runs on somebody's hardware. Make it yours — start with one GPU in a leased room and grow into the infrastructure the world quietly depends on. Everyone's building the future. Someone has to power it. You have a day job, ten thousand dollars, and a hunch. The world is about to run on compute — and it's going to need somewhere to run. Start with one machine in a leased room. Buy the parts, bring the rig online, and learn the unglamorous truth of the business: the money isn't in the boom, it's in the uptime. Fill your floor with nodes and every one of them earns — but every one also draws power, throws heat, and eventually breaks at 3am. Balance capacity against the electric bill. Cool the room or watch your margins melt. Update your drivers — carefully. And when the market turns, as it always does, decide whether you're the operator who adapts or the one who liquidates. Climb a tech tree drawn from the real history of the last decade: the crypto mining rush, the crash, the pivot to AI compute, and whatever's coming next. Go from a spare rig in a rented room to infrastructure the world quietly depends on. Rose will guide you. She's seen a lot of hosts come and go....more
