I made 1 trillion (and lost a Erebus) in the last 12 months AMA

Hi all...

I started playing EVE about 6 years ago. From day 1 the only thing i wanted was a shiny Leviathan.
After fooling around in highsec for a while i got the opportunity to join a big nullsec coalition (not so big anymore lately Shocked ).
In this coalition is started trading in modules throughout the regions that our coalition owned.
This went pretty well and i shifted to trading in ships and minerals.

I had a Rhea that i used to jump all stuff around with and took advantage of the big leverage between buy and sell orders in nullsec to make a nice profit.

Because i had all these minerals i started to build carriers in Sisters of Eve stations in Pure blind and sold all these on the markets in Deklein and Fade. This went pretty well for a while but consumed a lot of time flying things around.

Somewhere 2 years ago i found out that there actually was no need dragging all the ships and minerals to central locations because stuff sells well everywhere in nullsec. You just need some patience (and ISK) to wait for stuff to sell.

I started buying and selling and this worked pretty well. Big problem for me was that i could only trade in space that we owned because there was no way to escape warp bubbles and gate camps in the regions of our competitors.

Ten CCP changed the game mechanics and it was now possible to use interdiction nullified interceptors to go calmly through nullsec without being stopped by anyone.

So i trained 7 different characters into interceptors and trained all the necessary trading skills to trade remotely and blasted my way to 1 T profit in the last 12 months trading minerals and capital ships with playing on average 5 hours per week.

Now my combined characters have a net worth of 1.9T and i am looking for other enterprises to focus on...

Now under this post there will be a lot of Bittervets (people that type Eve is dying in 50% of their replies) showing how ignorant and dumb they are. If this stops you from asking me a question just drop me an ingame mail and i be glad to help you out where i can.

Edit: No i don't want to send you ISK

Never not pilot a titan through Brack Rise.

p.s. Leviathans are much safer.

I feel absolutely amazing. Thank you for asking.

So follow up, you never used this char to post before as it is not your main. Why do you need to hide your main?

ama from "not my main" in my opinion at the very least is a bit meh. I'm a true believer of history in EVE, but the history you're telling right now is not very much history-ish, as it's a random-not-main-no-reputation character.

Also, why did you not get a Levi since that was your dream?

Hi... I don't use my main because i already know what the majority of reactions gonna be. There are however lots of people out there that are struggeling to make ISK and i want to help them out to do so. Just like i had help when i started playing EVE 6 years ago.
I trained my main to fly a Levi, but since flying around in an interceptor through nullsec and holding a titan not go well together i bought an Erebus first. Actually had fun losing it, felt a bit like winning Eve.

You might not care. That's fine with me.

There are however a lot of people leaving this game because they can not generate a steady income to remain motivated.
EVE is a great game but very hard to "get yourself going". I like to help them out.

Now you might also think i am attention whoring, fine with me as well, but then why do you reply...?

Believe it or not, I have an actual question, how vital is it to join a nullsec alliance in order to sell **** in null? I only sell out of npc stations currently without being in an alliance so that I don't have to worry about price restrictions or pissing people off with high prices. Also, does (did) most of your income come from JFing in modules or building ships and then selling the ships to the alliance?

It has a 25m signature.

No it's not a cosmic signature.
