Risk up to about 3bn (dread), normally much much less, mainline ship of 300m (BS or logi) most common loss 100m (BC / navy cruiser) . For specialist ships like triage I risk about 1bn, fairly rare.

Total liquid ISK of around 10bn so I risk:

Max - 30%
Special role - 10%
Mainline ship - 3%
Most common - 1%
Pod: 5-10%

I am not proud of it, but I have 178.673 ISK and I just spent last million on an X5 web for my Solo Sabre. I go to the belts as soon as I lose my PVP ships, so I can make enough money to replace it. I don't waste time hunting unless it is 100% necessary.

I spend enough. I try to avoid faction/deadspacee and stick to t2 and meta 4 depending on the fit. Don't see the point in faction when your just probably going to end up getting jumped in a 10 v 2 or something :p

I lied :o

I tend to have about 2b isk liquid in wallet and about 8b tied up in pvp ships.

I have enough cash from past carebearing endeavours when wormholes were new. This said, I don't play much, so I don't kill much...but I don't lose much either.

I usually fly cheap stuff in PvP. Battlecruisers, Assault ships, Bombers, a Domi every now and then. All affordable and effective.

I do have some pimped out toys. Faction battleships and stuff, and soon my first T3. And while it's true that I would fly less head-on with those things, eventually I will lose every single one of them and I can replace them anyways.

If I happened to lose everything, I'd be just as happy tagging along my buddies in a Rifter or something.

in wh environment, where quality beats quantity, just a little better gear would decide the result of the battle

I tend to pimp all my wh ships 2b fitting for my archon1.5b for the bhaal and other T3s

There is no other purpose in this game for ISK other then to PVP so I spend all of it. Can make about 1b a week when I need more ships. Just spent 5b on ships the other day.

"Don't fly what you can't afford to lose."

I fly mostly T1/T2 frigate hulls, which are very easy to replace, but now and then I risk T2 cruisers worth 100-200 mil ISK. My total wealth has grown over time, but that just means I can have a larger variety of ships available, not necessarily more expensive ships.
