No clue of what I should do

Hello

(obvious alt is obvious)

I stopped playing EvE some years ago, even if I kept my main account subs to get those delicious SP, and back then converted all my assets and ISK into PLEX.

Now I'm sitting on more than 50b (still in PLEX) without any idea of what I could/should do with them.

I play around 2h/days top and I really don't like shooting at red cross, and even if 50b will take a long time to be wasted with my awfull PvP skills, I am looking for advices on how to make more ISK in order to pay for my subs and losses.

I have no ideas if this is the right place to talk about that, so if it isn't, my bad then.

Keep in mind that I don't aim to make the max amount of ISK/day possible but arround maybe 2b/month (if do-able).

Anyway, thanks for reading and for your time.

Easy way, look for safe places to invest in this forum (those with collateral are of course safest). Some pay higher interest than others. If you get high enough %, you should make 1-2B/month with your 50B without you doing anything.

thanks for the advice, but I was looking for making ISK myself, even if doing nothing by myself seems interesting.

Im kind of interested to start trading but I've no idea how I should start and if with only lets say half an hour per day to one hour per day trading will be a good option.

What do you want to do in game? What's fun for you? Once you've defined that, figure out how to make money out of it. I would'nt waste any second doing things just for ISK which are not fun.

Pay people to turn a small amount of money into a bigger amount of money.

If you're willing to do so ...
... and you're willing to listen ...
... we can make you space famous as well.

Mail me if interested, but don't assume I spill major beans.
Having good ideas stolen is not part of my plans this time. ;)

Here are some blogs that will give you a lot of information about trading - especially if you go back to the earliest entries and see how they got started.

If its market related gaming your want to get into, I suggest you drop by the scc-lounge ingame, and chat with a few of the local Grogg drinking isk-chasers.

I am sure there is a niche that can catch your interest-.

EVEmailed one suggestion.

In the interim there's always collateralized loans - they are a low risk, low effort way of making an OK ROI.

You can do better with effort.

This may looks like an unearth but, whatever.

I painfully (read: by doing only that, and that need shitload of alts) raised my 50b (well 52.3b) to 130b liquid and maybe 5~10b assets, but its not fun (at least not anymore).

I admit that I may have scam some capsulers/corps.

Should I keep doing that -income wise- or should I start to learn more "legit" way to make ISK? (note that I mostly only spend 1 or 2b /month in PvP plus my monthly PLEX).

This is a game. If something is not fun, or doing something to a certain extent becomes not fun, then don't do that. Just about any income stream can net you 1-2b a month assuming you are fully developed. Since you have 130b liquid, I'd just invest 100b, you should be able to make that 1-2b easy off low maintenance market orders. Just make orders at a likely locatation and walk away. Every week check on them, maybe for about an hour, then go back and pvp.

No need to "painfully" trade, especially when you have that much capital and only need less that 2% income.

My choice of pronouns is based on your avatar. Even if I know what is behind the avatar.

Scamming is fun. If scamming is making you ISK, then you are having fun making ISK.

This is *exactly* where you want to be in EVE.
