I no longer play this game and haven't done so for quite awhile.

I've discovered recently that I've got 65b in my wallet.

I'll give it away in 5b chunks to anybody who posts a half decent business plan.

In my opinion, the most helpful way to give this money away, is to go to the beginner's help channel in game. See which noob is asking questions and enjoying the game, and give it away in 1 bil chunks. This will do much more good than giving it away here. (I do this sometimes when I'm bored). Also occasionally when you come across a noob that's salvaging wrecks in low-sec in a Merlin, you can give them 1 bil, because they really need it. Because you also want to avoid giving any ISK to people who are ready, willing, and able to PLEX it.

Or you can save your ISK, and donate it in the next Plex4Good when disaster strikes.

After the holidays I plan to install one or two Raitarus in a system with decent index for myself and a small group, to start our own production endeavor ... totally excited about Big smile But some funds would help as the equipment is expensive and we also have to put aside some ISK to hire mercenaries, just in case. Straight 5B would be a really nice kickstart. Smile

Hello!

Well after a 1 year break from eve i recently returned with big plans. Started from my 1.5 bil and in trading grew up to be worth around 10 bil in a week (not the best but i cant update orders more than a couple of times a day).

I started doing all of this because i have long time plans to start trading 3 manufacturing alts + 1 hauler pilot (thus bringing my plex needs up to 6 each month) (since i need 1 for my main character and one to finish a market alt)

These builders will be used to exploit market instabilities and thus will build each weak or less specific items to maximize profit.
With this i hope to archive some business "verticalization" and increase my profits since i will be able to save a lot of taxes of selling component items and finished products (if so is more profitable of course)


The products will then be dispached to the hubs where my 4 market alts sit atm, possibily new ones depending on my research on profitability in low - sec and in null is concluded.


As ofc builders will take a long time to train (been checking sale orders of characters but i wouldn't want to drop my full net-worth onto one since i couldn't then market trade efficiently.


Thank you for your time and if you need any more details hit me up!

And in case you do actually leave the game add me to contacts. Never know when one might return and need a few plex!

If you don't play much, train a few research skills (laboratory operation, advanced laboratory operation), buy some capital component blueprints and research them. It takes something like 5 months to fully research one in a bonused engineering complex, and adds about a billion to its value (say 1b->2b).
If you have 3 characters, each researching 10 BPO's at a time, you can turn this into quite a business, an income estimated at 6b/month.
You only need to log in once per month to start the research jobs as well. A big initial investment is required though. 65b should be more than enough.

I think you might have missed the 1st 6 words of my post -

"I no longer play this this game"

After careful consideration I have awarded the 1st 5b to AcreatorPT and the 2nd 5b to Tipa Riot

Confirmation of receipt would be nice but ofc not obligatory Smile

I want to get into the mineral and high volume trading business. I will place buy orders for certain minerals near mining systems, and then re-sell those minerals. The funding would give me the initial capital I need to place the buy orders. With the ISK that I make from trading operations, hopefully I can eventually turn it into a ship manufacturing operation as well with a small engineering complex.

Hope I'm not too late. Came back to the game with Acsention, currently Alpha and reading every bit about trading here to make some funds. Also I see there is not much stuff to buy on the markets where I'm living but there is lowsec close by and my idea is to stock one of the border highsec systems with all the goods the PvP players need. Unfortunately this needs a lot of capital, because there will be slow sells in the beginning I assume, so would appreciate any help. Smile

In that case you may assume that what I posted is my plan.

Hello.

My plan is to invent and manufacture popular T2 modules. I'm still researching which ones are worth building (T2 fighters, warp disruptors, strip mining lasers seem profitable). Later on, I'm going to train into a freighter to help haul stuff around. The problem is that freighters are quite pricey (1 billion isk+), so I would have to do invention+manufacturing for a while to earn enough for one.

For the time being, I'm manufacturing T1 ammo (mostly missiles), that I seed around mission hubs. But the profits are slow and skill training for T2 manufacturing takes a while.

If you have any more questions, feel free to send me a mail in-game. An investment of 5 billion isk would go a long way at this time.

5B isk received and many thanks! Again hope you might one day return and if so contact me for some free plex!!


Also if ppl seem suspicious to you motives (or you are having trouble finding "investors" Lol i can take some more shares as an actual loan (at low or 0 interest) (yes if you one day return ill make my priority to pay back whattever you sent me - as such i cant promise id do it instantly)

I do have a lot more business ideas and things i wanna try and researched into (like try to run some reaction POSes and a few more (if you want again i could eve mail and discuss with you in game.


I could come here with some alts to propose more business ideas and try to get a couple more 5 bil but im an honest man (take it with whatever salt you need) and such would feel terrible doing it and cant bring myself to do it.


I understand you want to spread the joy and ofc im already more than thankfull for your help (yay xmas early present).



for the ones yelling greedy (i agree and in no way im not saying for him to not help other people) but as you understand things in eve take a long time, and i cant possibly try half the things i want in a year (because i need to keep some good liquid isk to run operations and as such doing a large investment into say 5 or so towers, training 6 characters, buying bpos keeping materials and stock, pay haulers and the most important 1st steps to actualy have the freighters, DSTs, BPOs, couple of towers etc etc


---

TL:DR: if you want / dont find good businesses i can take more isk as a loan in case you come back some day (actualy would be funny you come back one day so i could get my 1st good public MD rep from non friends in the game!

EVE-Mogul does a lot of service for the MD/Trade community. Any donations will be sacrificed to the Yeti to gain karma with him.

In all seriousness, any ISK will be used to help stock our Sotiyo for production and manufacturing. You'll know that your isk is being used to please the Yeti.

With the advent and proliferation of Citadels and Engineering Complexes as well as the burden that they may represent to their owners, We'd like to provide regular fueling and maintenance services in order to help simplify the day to day operation of these structures.

Using PI and Ice Mining (as well as subcontracting these to meet demand) we would make fuel block production as vertical and as efficient as possible at our own facilities, and use hauler alts to distribute them on schedule to the exact specifications of our clients. So not only do our clients get a fair price on their much needed fuel, they get the peace of mind of a galaxy-class service that would guarantee their energy needs are met on time and on their terms. The fuel is delivered on agreed upon intervals for the duration of the contract. Fueling becomes something they no longer have to worry about, and their own citadel/EC services would continue unimpeded.

For an extra premium we would also deliver janitorial staff for the discerning client who wishes for their installation to remain pristine.

if you have that isk i would train up some market trading skill and have at it there is alot of isk to be made in arket trading. Or you can get a rorqual and the excavator drones and go mine.. mining with them is really awesome you can make about 300 mil an hr with the drones
