Introduction to Shares and Investments?

Dear Eve,

I am a casual solo player who plays Eve more like a strategy game than anything else. I am pretty satisfied with my success and am closing in on a billion ISK. Still, the game gets boring if you don't come up with more things to achieve. I have started doing exploration but would like to find something else as well. I noticed the shares section in my wallet and have heard about various ventures, so I am wondering about trying to get in on such a thing.

So let me get this out of the way, no, you can't have my ISK :) What I am looking for is a way to research these projects that people asking for ISK run so that I can decide for myself what if anything I would like to buy shares or another kind of interest in.

Thank you for your help and keep on r- carebears and casuals, a little excitement now and then is good for us.

You should definitely start by exploring each of the EVE forums and spending 20-30mins reading the stickies AND some of the content posted there. A lot of the time other people posting on the forums will be quick to point out bullshit/scams.

Put it this way - only get involved in ventures where the risk is shared with lots of other credible sources/players

1. Wrong forum. This should be in market place.

2. You have obvious no idea about how shares work in EVE and what they do. You dont make money of shares and any sane CEO keeps them in his own posession.

Tl:dr - Do your research on game mechanics before posting offers like this. This shows you didnt do any research and you will come out burned.
