Can you really make money with Prosper?

I've been hearing a lot about Prosper lately and I'm curious - can you really make money with it? I mean, I understand it's a peer-to-peer lending platform where people can borrow and lend money, but is it actually profitable for investors? Are there any risks involved? How does the process work, and how can I get started if I'm interested? I'd love to hear your thoughts on the matter and any advice you might have for someone considering investing in Prosper.
