I beg but doesn't work very well for me, thus my characters are space poor Oops

Quoting my self because it's true, so if any of you can send me some isk to buy ships and go for a ride I'll take it.

I don't scam, don't mine, don't kill rats and exploration is getting me "MadBro", I just pvp that's why I'm space poor and flooded with ridiculous 50K isk bounties by Condord...

Edit: If you have ships you don't use at Jita and want to contract them to me, I take them too.

1: if you are part of some null sec alliance, there may be a network of jump beacons and jump bridges set up. You can jump too to beacon in the systems you rat in (Think of them as a permanent cyno you can have lit on your corps pos that only people in your corp or alliance can jump too)

beacons are especially great if you jump to them without eyes in the system

it's like playing russian roulette with all but one chamber loaded

So guys, As many of you fellow vets have seen. so many isk making Fads have come and gone.
My self being in pvp for the last few years, Ive being doing the whole Buy a plex here and there sorta thing.
I did make a few bil doing incursions when they first came out, and ofcourse did missions in my noob years.

9 years into my life in eve CCP has both created new was to make ISK and nerfed ways to make ISK
They nerfed 0.0 couple years ago. Then they came out with incursions which was the huge isk maker until they nerfed the vanguard sites. There has always been the Mission runners, inventors, the plexers, the industrialist, the char traders, and lets not forget the w-spacers and Carrier 0.0 ratters. **EDIT** forgo Scammers, explorerst FW ofcourse but sadly it needs work CCP need to make it better for PvP it faction warfare not Faction Carebearing....

So my question how are you making you isk?
and what is the easy Isk/hour way.
Is exploration the next thing? are incursions still on top? mission worth doing still? lets us know
what is your bread winner.
Lets see what seems to be what most are doing.

****I UNDERSTAND SO PEOPLE WONT WANT TO SHARE WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO MAKE ISK, IF YOU DONT WISH TO SHARE THEN THE ANSWER IS SIMPLE, DONT POST******

Please post Ticks in the form of ISK/HR....
if you have some sorta of got to ship or fit you mind has made you rich.
Feel free to go into dealing on how you make yourself rich.

WHAT I DO TO MAKE ISK:
I AM A NULL SEC RATTER, i JUMP INTO A GOOD SYSTEM FULL OF SANCTUMS AND FORSAKEN HUBS WITH A CARRIER OR NIGHTMARE AND MAKE ABOUT 10MIL/SITE EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE THERE IS A OFFICER SPAWN WITH NICE LOOT
I like to have fun so mining for 8 hours a day just isnt for me, FEELS TOO MUCH LIKE WORK. I love PvP so if I can make isk shooting stuff i`m all for it.

I ratt sanctums in 0.0 space in my thanny I can make around 100mil/hour on a good day.
Allows me to shoot stuff in my carrier. also allows me to jump back to HQ if some defence fleet is needed.

0.0 Carrier ratting
Steps are as follows:
-I just jump into a good system.
-scan
- warp to the first sanctum or forsaken hub I find
- let isk poor in, just make sure im align to warp out at the first sign or trouble.
Some times you`ll get a officer spawn. nice faction mods inside too

Hope we can get a good list going Here. Help the noobs out and eachother.

I work , then use the excess money To buy plexes with my credit card. Simple, effective...

I provide some one free game time, he provides me ISK. Win Win... But lately I have also been buying characters off the Bazaar, train, sell for profit. It works...

exploration
t2 armor plates.
i tend to find 10 in a can usually at 20m ea 200m in 2 mins of work.
i find around 300 of these a week

That sounds interesting, this is all 0.0 exploration I am assuming? I wonder how much training I would need to get into exploration.

Currently I'm just running belt rats solo, last night I was averaging anywhere from 7 million to close to 9 million per tick....I am wondering if that is considreed good, fair, poor, lol crap....someone tell me?

I definitely need a better way to start making isk soon, it won't be long before i can fly fleet doctrine t2 ships, those aren't easy to replace on my meager salary.

You make a valid point, good Sir or Madam.

Selling common goods for high prices in low sec (t2 ammo, frigs, the occasional battle cruiser, and some t2 mods). Buying ores at low prices and selling high. PI with max planets (if your planets are in high sec you're doing it wrong), and up until recently exploration (which I'll still do but far less often).

I'm not online everyday so this style of game play works great for me. Generally whenever I log on there's some isk waiting for me. I take a break and roam, PvE, PvP, once I've stocked all the stations I sell out of and have my planets on max length extraction cycles. I could probably triple what I bring in with PI alts, but I'm not that hardcore yet.
