Hey. I'm kinda having a huge problem atm - I'm sitting on 90b+ and I have no idea what to do with it. I've been playing eve actively for about 9 months, mostly pve combat and pvp stuff, so I'm not that experienced in investing isk, industry, all that stuff. Are there any good industry guides around? If anyone feels like giving me some useful tips or helping me with industry I guarantee I'd share some of that newly gained isk with you. That's all I guess...Thanks for reading.

Buy 90b of PLEX slowly. Wait. Cash in 120b of plex next year. (or whenever you need it). Consider PLEX to be your inflation hedge...

Hi sister! :D


The most obvious thing that comes to my mind is to pay people to do things.


Just think about it for a minute. If you invest into the human factor, there almost endless combinations of things that can happen if you just pull the right triggers ... or just keep pulling it over and over again. If this sounds interesting for you, then feel free to mail me, so we can discuss how your name will never be forgotten. :)

With 90b you can probably invest in a T2 BPO for your industry endeavor.

Alternatively, you can invest it into carrier/dreadnaught production, for the benefit of your corp or for profit.

Alternatively alternatively, you can play the market game, buying low in one trade hub, investing in freight, and selling high in another.

If Chribba told you not to trust him, would you?

Buy a Vangel and undock at Jita 4-4 while screaming "Come at me bro!!!" in Local... call it an investment in fun and a place in the EVE history books that folks will remember long after DT. Blink

Why not donate your fortune to The Troll Bridge for our Catalyst Hero Scholarship Fund? All proceeds go to help aspiring alts become the best Catalyst Hero they can be. Without you investment in their future, the best these alts could ever hope to accomplish is being a dead end PI bunny or worse, a regular poster in GD.




Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Yes, this. With 90+billion, I'm sure you can buy your way into the bonus room and double, if not triple that isk!

Head on to the Market subforum, look at some offers. The (seemingly) legit investments i've seen revolve around contracting bulk items/ships for Chribba to hold, you loaning your ISK. You'll have to gauge the items/ships value if its equal (or bigger) to your investment, while also being aware of the market/future buffs or nerfs due to upcoming patches/expansions. You agree on a date when everything has to be settled etc etc.

The seemingly big investments, due for loooong periods and over a paltry percentages, is better than the ISK sitting around doing nothing.

edit: it is also noteworthy to look at the posting history of the people asking for loans, and the ones giving them out.

90b in nine months doing pve combat (isk in) and pvp (mostly isk out).

Sell your secret isk making methods to folk and you will not need anyone to double your isk.

If you want to get into indy stuff I would say join a good indy corporate. I'd tell you to come join mine but it's pretty new with only 20 more. Or if I had that to spend on indy I'd use it to start my corporate into bed capital ships. You can start up a great indy could. Just don't give anyway to many roles.

Besides the obvious "you can give the isk to me" You should just blow it all on expensive stuff and get it all blown up in glorious fire (or if your good it will be doing the blowing up of others)
