kill stuff till you're nice and red and flashy everywhere then put it on your head as a bounty, hop in a dramiel and jump around between systems till someone catches you all the while auto spamming local with scam contracts for 1 carbon

Buy a very expensive ship that most people can fly ( Raven navy issue, or any other 300+ mil ship )

Perhaps even a marauder or something crazy.

Fit officer smartbombs.

Advertise that you're going to give it away at a specific location.

Wait for hordes of people to arrive.

When they are all in their pods and waiting to jump in you activate all smartbombs and watch the biggest concord of all time appear plus your sec status drop to about -10.0.

The rest of the money could come in handy, so send me some :)

you should do something noble for the eve economy and screw with the goons in the process. offer a 1B isk reward for every Goon POS taken down in a hi-sec gallente ice system. or contract some hisec corps to wage war on them.

just think of all the pretty explosions that would ensue.

Buy a bunch of Plex and keep your account running so you can train skills, because eventually, you may want to return.

Buy a Guardian Vexor and go spam the jita 4-4 undock with your 10 drones :P
Suicide ganking in a unique ship, that'll make the headlines for sure!

Last I heard they were around 40 bil, no?

:p

I agree - OP will buy a new face from the bazaar and carry on playing. Am going to bite anyways.

Speak to the CCP team that organises live events.

Spend your 40bn on putting together your perfect fleet.

Ask them to let you FC a Fleet composing all of your ships and a whole pile of Devs of your choice, attacking a random system that you choose. Incursion style effects would apply in full. Concord is nullified.

Give an event to the community - go out in style.

You do have to spend the full 40bn - your character is automatically biomassed when your ship is destroyed.

Byeeeeee......

Edit - this would be a nice way to weed out the "I quit" rage-posters. Make them commit.

Aaaaaaand relax.

Goto Jita & buy 40 billion's worth of shuttles & a Orca, undock with your hold filled with shuttles.
Eject the shuttles into space outside 4-4.

Now do this till the JITA node crashes & CCP ban you for 10,000 shuttles in jita space @ 4-4

1) Buy plex with all your isk.
2) Stuff all plex to well tanked battleship.
3) Write to forums that you have just undocked in some quiet hisec system called ****** and are going to drive around various hisec systems as long you are alive.
4) Wait for some of the gankers to arrive and start moving.
5) Don't forget to yell that you have 40b worth of plex in your hold in every system you go to..
6) Keep moving and have the most entertaining day of your eve career.

buy as many melted nanoribbons as you can, hop into a hulk and go ice mining, get ganked by the goons and have an alt pick up the nanoribbons before the goons can get to it making the goons cry like little babies from losing billions from a wreck!

or run around null buying random stuff and selling it back to them for extra isk. then claim to be with their blues and cause an eve version of a world war!Big smile

or even better, go into fw and join some fleets and get their standings into the negatives by shooting the station's guns or random wrecks!

or pay a whole bunch of mercs to war dec a bunch of nullsec alliances that are all red to each other. it'd be even better if you found a huge carebear corp and get them to war dec them instead.

Fund an alliance that is the enemy of an alliance you do like, and give the isk to the person in said alliance who you think will dish it out the fairest. Then demand videos and updates of what your isk is accomplishing. like one of those orphaned tigers you can adopt that sends you letters and dried up big cat crap.


But please, whatever you do with it, be sure to visit Jita for a bit and spam local that you're giving away all of your isk and you'll double whatever anyone gives you - But actually do it : ) oh and make sure its with an alt for the mystery factor. good luck!

You may not have seen the new blogs today... Eve's going back to focusing on spaceships. You may want to check those out and reconsider.

However, if you truly want to go out in a blaze of glory, leaving an indelible mark in the history of the game... take out the Veldnaught. It would make me horribly sad to see it happen, but you'd leave in infamy.


To take it one step further:

40 Billion ISK to the person who lands the killing blow on the Veldnaught...

edit: And use Chribba to hold the isk in escrow...


haha this^^ just because cunning troll is cunning

click the link in my signature, although I had a little under a trillion isk for all those events, you could do something similar with your budget if you want to have fun while you spend/ give away all your isk.

40bil budget you could do the following fun event:


  • Setup a deathstar in a dead end lowsec system
  • Get some pos gunners and set pos to shoot all on site
  • Put an unmanned rare ship (or two) in the middle of your pos (Guardian Vexor probably best for the low skill requirement)
  • Surround your pos with 300 cans
  • Put the pos password in ten (or less) of the cans
  • First person to get inside the pos gets the ship
  • First person to takeout the rare ship wins the rest of your isk
