Poorly Rubber Plan
 
'Ronald',

You don't show the uppermost part of the plant or describe its general
condition and height so that a proper assessment can be made of its
chances.

A new leaf keeps trying to grow on top then dies then tries to regrow.

Looks like quite a nice specimen. Has it grown out of its pot? Has it been
fed recently? What kind of room is it kept in?

Poorly Rubber Plan
 
'Ronald',

It appears that your plant is placed near a radiator (now summer, of
course) and rubber plants are very adverse to dry hot conditions, hence
the scorching of the leaves's edges.

I cannot see whether or not the pot is resting in a bowl or similar to
facilitate good drainage and that is a very important point.

Otherwise you have a healthy, compact plant.
