EVE General Discussion

since it would take all of somers money to buy all of entities (or chribbas) assets, sure entity is the richest man alive?

just to add, if somebody would finally start telling us his ISK value of assets and deposits we might get the others to tell us the amount as well, so I start with mine, and as long as nobody else tells something higher, I'm the richsest one for the paper :)

700 million :)

Entity is the most asset-rich technically, since he has ships that he would never sell and that are unique.

Somer has pulled in at least 50T from blink, probably more.

I've also heard some stories about T2 BPO cartels back in the day pulling in excess of 200T between their members, but I have no idea if that is true.

that happens to be the exact amount, please send to me.

I'm rich enough to buy anything I want to fly faction fitted and lose it and only care about having to refit (except supers)
Is that enough?

PS: Don't forget sirmolle, that guy has quite a bit

And most of those people on there aren't even in the top ISK list since there's alot of people that don't have eveboard

I'd be surprised if >25% of it would be ISK.

My assets (roughly):
10% in ISK
20% in PLEX
10% in ship T1 hulls (essentially minerals)

10% in T2 BPOs (mostly bad investment nowadays, but those memories...)

20% in items I expect to appreciate in value over a long period of time (currently some in tier 1/2 battleships, some good moon goo, no longer seeded items)
10% in items that I think will appreciate in the short run (recently ice); when i expect deflation, it'll be another stack of ISK

10% in oustanding credit (varies)

10% in assorted other stuff (T2 modules/ships; deadspace, officer, ice, etc.)

So roughly 40%-50% is invested, 40% are reasonably safe and liquid assets (PLEX, T1 ships, ISK) with a small rest being difficult to liquidize assets.

When I was poor, I didn't have much of my assets as PLEX, only ever enough to cover my accounts for the foreseeable future (2 years or so). When I got richer I actually increased the relative amount I was holding in PLEX, figuring it to be future-proof and giving me enough to draw on for the rest of my eve life (both for PLEXING as well as for liquidation). Now that I am richer still, the percentage of my assets in PLEX has decreased (I am no longer adding too it in absolute terms), as it seems pointless and kinda mean to tie it up.

In the past there was some working capital (POSes in space, BPCs that are running), but I mostly left that behind. Back thenr that stuff wouldn't have been on my balance sheet as listed above (I'd usually "write it off" once put into action, obvs. still factoring it in as cost for any profit calculations).

I've seen individuals trade in multiple trillions.

Obviously, none are as wealthy as I, but the runner ups are pretty well loaded.

Priceless means it's worth nothing.

yea i would put 30% at least in plex, the rest maybe in limited ships as much as i can get, not sure yet if the market has tendency to inflate or deflate, thats what I want to find out, it depends a lot what the wealthiest will do or how they allocated their ISK

Right now I have perhaps a billion isk in liquid cash, as I'm flipping assets and immediately plowing the cash into other investments.

In six months that number will probably be quite a lot larger though...
