Hey all,

Newish poster here,

I recently broke through the hundred Mil threshold.

Whats the most efficient way to turn my meager 200 mil into mas isk.

I know about station trading and hauling. Does anyone have a decent operation looking for some isk?

Collateralized of course ;)

Flame on!

Hmm,

Maybe I'll ask for a 1 isk gift.

x10 profits if my abbucus is calibrated correctly...

Might have to reboot it though.



That might be a good topic for the forum. 1000 100isk donations plz!

Scamming is probably the best way to get your first billion. Scamming from one to ten billion is possible too, but harder.

You say that often, but I think scamming from nothing to a bil is harder than one to ten bil, once you have enough ISK for PLEX, BPOs, faction ships, etc., you can use that for price swap trade scams that I feel would work a lot more often than begging, fake plex or putting 100x less than the asking price straight away.

best way to make your first billion is sitting in jita doing a firetail firesale 1mil 1mil 1bil scam. spam for a couple hours each day and you will get a hit within a few days to a week. only costs are the contract fees and the 3 firetails or whatever item you use and its no effort.

and scamming from one to five billion isn't harder just not as efficent but once you have 5bil you can margin scam and skys the limit.

Nah scamming where you are selling rubbish at 250m or so is quite doable. Just trick people into thinking your contract is a want to buy.

Elite Drone AI are an excellent item, just say you need it for a storyline mission and a ganker stole yours.

Doable sure, but your audience is tiny and you can probably make more ISK by mining. I've looked at a lot of people's contract histories and it doesn't look to me that it is worth doing that compared to margin trading scams, price swapping direct trades or manufacture Kashada's game.
