75b going begging

Well since everyone's chipping in with their idea I'll chip in with mine -

If you gave me 75b ISK, I will take a small cut (maybe 5b) and use the rest to sponsor hulkageddon style terror attacks in HS, paying the players for successful gank based on the kill value and such.

5b cut that I take would be more or less fee for adminstrative work I'd have to get someone to do, like tracking the kill mails and such.

Traditionally it had been miners and haulers who were targeted, but I have some ideas where there could be bigger scope for destructive impact.

Anyway - that's my idea. ;)

You obviously didn't do much research about me before posting your idea Smile

I'm currently reinstalling Eve so that I can access my isk and I will then carefully consider the replies already received and those replies I might receive in the future. I have already hallmarked one person to receive a 5b donation.
I research all the replies in this thread very thoroughly.

Zaha Koto,

If you want to give away your Isk's then maybe you could spend it for something usefull like this:

in the off chance you're not trolling, i just started playing eve a little over a month ago. Figured I would try station trading, been doing well so far, id welcome any donation I could get to add a little more liquid isk in my acct.... I could even give you updates on the progress I have made along the way, that's if you care..... take care ;)

heh, to be honest it didn't really matter what you are like or what you wanted as a person - I'm not looking to come up with an idea that will suit your taste, just an idea that I think is worth spending 75b on, which may be against how you think about EVE. Cool

I did actually set aside considerable amount of ISk before to go on 'crusade' against Azbels, but then I started using them and ended up liking them quite much and thought they balanced out ok with existing Fortizars, so I dropped that idea. I just think if ISK is going to be 'spent' it's better to spend it on destruction. :)

EDIT: Just to add - ISK backed ganking in HS doesn't necessarily have to be vs. miners & haulers etc. It could be ganks vs. particular faction toons (for RP reasons) or vs. mission runners or HS war deccers etc. I just used hulgageddon as an example, but didn't really mean that I would go on crusade vs. miners/haulers.

Is it possible to still buy shares?

I am not sellling shares atm, maybe some time later this year there will be a new share sale. You can try buying shares from players in this thread.

You could also offer the museum an interest-free loan, i.e. you let the museum use a portion of your money with no charge - when you want the money back, you get it back.

Zaha,

As I hate seeing people "leave" the game, give away most of their assets/isk, then only to return and have nothing, I'd like to propose the following.

You provide a loan to myself with no collateral, from 15-20B ISK. The rest you do with as you wish, possibly other ideas in this thread.
The loan would then generate interest at 1.5% per month for the life of the loan. The life of the loan being dictated by when you return. The principal of the loan can be paid out in full after 6 months, however the interest can either be paid out monthly or when you withdraw the full amount.

You would then keep a hand in the game seeing what your loan is creating, with the understanding you can step back in with some ISK in your wallet.

Would you like to know?

If you just want to watch the world burn, here's an idea.

First deposit some of the money in escrow with Chribba.

Then offer a 40 billion ISK prize for the person that carries out the most significant corp defection in nullsec sovereignty warfare.

I could really use some hookers, drugs, slaves, a little ice (my meth), maybe a **** star setup, an exploration stratios, annddddd maybe an azebel. These are all alternative FACTS! I need them, totally need them. Could really use your kind assistance, financially of course, to acquire said things. I'd be happier than Donald Trump in the whit...wait does that work here? Ehh probably not.

Speaking for myself no thanks , no need allready have more then i can ever need.

That said , as others stated there are a good amount of 'orginisations' you can give it to.I've done that for numerous things in the past like player events , bombers bar , RvB , HORDe cap programm and other stuff.However if you still have friends ingame i'd assume you would give them a cut first.

You could also create some event in wich the 75B is used as a 'destroy this ship' or as a price bonus , content creation alllways is the best way to throw isk out the door.

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

You should give it to me, I don't need it, but I want it so I can either get things blown up or get blown up.

I just want more isk, it is how I define my worth.

Hey Zaha,

My advice for what it's worth: keep your stuff Smile.

I just came back after a 3 years break. I personally gave most of my assets and isks before quitting back then...

Don't regret it per se because other people enjoyed it... but I would've kept a bit for a potential return!

Cheers.

If I was given a small loan of 5B-10B here's what I would do. I would use market manipulation and general "lazy style" station flipping to make a 5-10% profit per day. all the station trading I conduct is at a single market: Jita because even though people consider cross-station trading more profitable, single station treading is much safer, easier, and most importantly, more enjoyable for me.Mosy of the ISK I make is through market manipulation. Every item I want to manipulate is researched by myself and I have very stringent requirements for what I manipulate. I can only recall 2 or 3 times where my market manipulation made failed out of a hundred or so attempts.

Just to tell you a little bit about myself, I started playing Eve in 2016, and started with nothing. I run multiple accounts for PI in profitable Nullsec areas to automatically PLEX myself each month. Additionally, I have excursion, PVP, and Mining characters but the character I spend the most time on is my Station Trader.. He makes me most of my actual ISK at this point, although I am hoping to get into excursions more. I play very ISK-centric and making ISK matters the most to my enjoyment in this game.

Anyway, if I got a loan from you, I would pay 5% interest each month. I would definitely be able to repay the line in three months or whenever you come back. I won't act like an angel so I will say... The more ISK I get the more ISK I would make you. :)
I
Side note: This account is actually not my main one, although he is the new one I am planning to use for exclusive station trading. My first character is skilled as a station trader as well, but he had other duties in other areas of the galaxy and it was getting tiresome moving him around. I only recently started getting this guy's skills up and now he is sitting at a 100 orders or so with margin trading 4/5.

Not that I need it, but if you absolutely don't find any use of the ISK, I'm always happy about donations. Big smile

I would put 5bil to good use.
I would make the largest party ship in New Eden - a freighter filled to the brim with exotic dancers and crash. You'd be welcome aboard anytime, if that is your thing! Hell, you all would be welcome aboard! 5bil would allow me to buy the freighter, mods, girls and blow for us all to have a good time. With all the death and destruction in New Eden, I think a place for us all to sit back, chill, chat **** and enjoy ourselves would be a fantastic addition.
If the women and blow is not your thing - I could still use the freighter (without disrupting the flow of my current trading operations - in fact I could diversify further!)
However, I will make the party boat a reality if you so wish! Just let me know what you would prefer Cool

Hello, you don't know me and unfortunately I can't share my identity. Why will be obvious in a few seconds.

I represent an organisation which successfully infiltrated CODE. and we are in a position to make the final strike. The tricky part is that we still have a lot of assets missing in the order of 10bil ISK to make it really hurt them. Obviously the plan also involves to cease the existing assets in their various freighter ganking locations. The amount of ISK in those caches are more than enough to pay you and our already involved investors back with interest should you one day decide to return to the game.

You can also chose to let them know your name if we strike. It will not be the only name on the list, since some of our other investors have already chosen to make their involvement known. But it is at least a short list Big smile

I know we may have a serious trust issue here and I can't give you details about how the funds are used as this would tip them off. So I understand if you invest in a more secure venture. Just wanted to mention it anyway since it may be mutually beneficial for both parties.

good luck with your out of game adventures.

If you gave me 600 million isk i would use it for a skill injector so my combat character can start blitzing level 4 burners. If you gave me another billion isk i would use it to keep my omega status so i don't loose 2 months worth of skill training. I don't have much else to say.

As much as I hate to add to the "random new player #43" pile, it never hurts to try!

I have not been playing long and, unfortunately, my play time can be sporadic at best. That said, the folks in Rookie Help and other channels have been great in helping try to navigate the steep learning curve in this game. I had created an alt just to mine Veldespar and my heart was broken when I realized that I could not train two characters at once (as an example).

I would be thrilled to receive any of that 75B as a donation so that I can save up for a PLEX. I have been fortunate enough to receive a few million in donations already so that I could buy an Algos (recommended) and start doing level 1 missions in it. I am hoping to save up for a Vexor at some point as well.

I have no fancy investments or station trading empires to invest in, but I can promise any donation would be replied to with several rather funny jokes in EVEmail!
