How do you make it (if from multiple sources, what are the proportions from each)? And what do you spend it on when you have it?

If you have problems multiplying your ISK, just send it all to me and I'll double it for you.

As a null sec cartel member I get given an allowance directly from CCP, as should you... Whoops! Oh no, the secret is out!

And I spend it on crack.

People offer it or give it when I ask,
because they know I'll put it to good use.


Or I buy 60 day GTCs, because they are worth it.

Or I steal loot from ganks that happen. Quite successfully, too.
Can be done with only the overview visible,
which lights flashy red as soon as I need to pay attention.

No way I'll waste my time WORKING for money...

My Fedo brings me ISK every morning. God knows where it's been or where it got the ISK from, i don't ask.
Then of course I spend it on Exotic Dancers (Female) and Amarrian ale.

I grave rob in my off hours from the Taco Stand on the Pator Tech School station in Aldrat.

I mostly spend it on Blink.

The ISK I make from that I use to buy spaceships which I then destroy in glorious orgies of self flagellation.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

All of my monies come from generous donations by people who are leaving Eve and have decided to do the right thing for their stuff, my POS dropping service, my legit ISK tripling services, being a male stripper at gallente parties, competitive sushi eating, ratting in highsec belts, whatever meager scrapings I get from ganking freighters, haulers and miners, ninjaing station gamer loots, Ninja salvaging, Chili cook-offs, underground rap battles, and people who pay me to go away.



Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

If you look for ISK, you will find it in whatever you do in EVE.

Just some pitfalls, (well MANY pitfalls), on your way to the Almighty Interstellar Kredits --

1. Scams - some common sense can help you avoid these. ISK multipliers, contract scams,
just to name a few. (recruitment scams from any Goon as well -- they only recruit whom they
wish, and not by application from a totally new player)

2. Location - be aware of security status of the system you are in. Low/Null security spaces
can be very dangerous to those unaware of their surroundings. Even for those with good
security channels can still be dangerous to the unaware!

3. Fun - make ISK in a way that you enjoy. If you don't, you may find yourself burning out
rather soon(ish) and I would hate to see that happen.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear.

But in all seriousness ISK is really really really easy to make, just look in to things like data/relic exploration sites, i know i can make a fair bit of ISK in the low sec ones, not sure what the value is of high sec ones but you can do them in a simple T1 frigate, just look for a hacking minigame guide on youtube and get farming ISK :)
