2 months = +3 mill SP

Buddy invite + 2 plex (900 mill) = 4 months' playtime for 12 mill SP

Sale of e.g. focused tengu pilot with 12 mill SP is around 4-5 bill

Profit 4 bill minus skillbooks?

Yes you can.
Sold my Tengu alt with 11 mil sp for around 6 bil few months ago.
Freighter pilots and cap/supercap holders also popular iirc.

But 11 mil sp will train around 175 days (with +4 implants and 2 remaps) so you will spend 5 plexes + 2 on transfer.

Is this GD, have I just seen a short, concise and informative post with no flaming? There is hope yet for this forum Lol

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...

Edit: Inappropriate part removed, CCP Phantom.

You can but its a long term thing. Also your isk profit is all based on the fluctuation of PLEX

Definitely a long term investment, with a bit of initial investment thrown in that may make you wince or not, depending on your current in game finances. But if you like that kind of thing, can be pretty profitable. And after that first sale, no more wincing.

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!
