I'm not trying to troll.

If I see there is reason, and truth in what people say, I happily shut my mouth. Like how I haven't responded to what Bad Bobby said to me.

it doesn't matter if you currently have 1 contract or 16 public contracts - OK I was wrong, you have 16 public contract.

Even that is a small amount for how much you claim you have.

Analyze that, with your completed contracts history which only started being active in May, and your claim that you've made enough ISK through Bonds to buy LOTS of cap / supercap / titan bpo's.

I looked at the current BPO's you have on auction after you told me I got it wrong.

They're worth 20 - 25 Bil max. How much have you got in the oven?

First of all, I am not butt hurt. I know what I've done, because I played actively from 2009 - 2011, and then I took a 2 year break from 2011 - 2012 after I got a full time job. Earning 240 Bil is not bad for 2 years of work, and I am proud of it.

Second, if you are willing to go to this extreme, then I admit, I was wrong to doubt you. Since both VV and Grendell are prominent figures.

The reason why I attacked you, is because I dis-like Social Engineers, and your story, about earning all this money through bonds, without spending RL money to get your initial investment amount - which you've made enough to buy Supercap BPO's, is still very sketchy to me.

I already admitted I was wrong to doubt that you have 500 bil.....OMG did I just admit I was wrong in public.

HOWEVER, If you sold PLEX to get your initial Bond nvestment years ago, there is nothing that VV, or Grendell can do to prove otherwise, the wallet history don't even go back that far.

This is why we can't have nice things.

He allmost begged for it , i confess i am weak and for a 37 year old childish enough to let myself get trolled out

Nah bro, you got this, he's bluffing. Go for it.

I can safely say that Flakeys deals with expensive BPOs because in the past I have asked him to go fetch them for me and then I bought off him.

Also, to stay in topic, I feel very rich for the very fact I can play EvE and other MMOs I love.

Right yesterday I played Istaria after 2 years (I keep it perma-subbed on 3 accounts, because I love to support their developers who really REALLY did an heroic feat). I met a dearest, DEAREST, D E A R E S T pre 2003 friend of mine in there. She decided to play yesterday after 5 years of absence. It's incredible how these coincidences can happen.
Since I am absurdly rich in there, I will gift her a buildable large plot of land near my "lizard" alt's (those cost a lot).
But to show that "rich" is relative, I linked a character unbound Boar Mask. I immediately got swamped by people willing to offer me *9 years worth of gold grinding* just to have it.
I said no. Nothing can buy it, they can only rosick forever

Eve? It's the same. I am rich not because I can buy a Titan but because there is MD and SCC where there are some awesome people like Flakeys, Samroski, RAW23 and a bunch of others.
I don't have incredible "one piece in game" items in EvE since I am a 2009 newb, but incredible "one person like that in game" guys no ISK could buy. Just knowing they are here makes me rich and happy.

Anyway , on topic.

The question is asked wrong it should be what is rich in eve not what is wealthy.

Wealth is something that combines feelings and isk/cash/income. If i surround myself with poor people i will feel wealthy a lot of the time while if i surround myself with people who have more i won't see myself as being wealthy.

Wich only indicates wealth indeed is based on feelings :P

And merry christmas right back at ya ...

I started amassing my wealth in 2010. Essentially starting from about 8B (burnout quit with 2 gel chains in space wiped out my old wealth). Multi trillionare now, so yes, it can be done. I also do it with very little effort. If I was willing to be a sperg and do tons of EFFORT in EVE, it would be far higher. None of it came from the perks for being a director either. Not sure if you believe directors just skim moogoo or something. Any good alliance is auditing that.

Though to your point, my initial leftover few billion did come from farming Khuumak before CCP nerfed it. However, I could have easily gotten the same bankroll doing the cosmos set on a few chars, or ratting or whatever.

We have many newbie goons who go from brand new to the game, to 100B+ wealth inside 2 years with pretty little effort. Wealth generation is not something lacking in the EVE of today.
