Who am I?
Red Teufel, 25 years old, university (college) student. Got into eve second half of last year and was into running NPC goods pretty early on. Realised that it was going to take a lot of hauling to get a decent size capital, I bought a GTC and sold one of the Plex's. A fair bit was wasted on stupid mistakes (including losing various sets of learning skill implants) but it definately helped my trading. Got into station trading, and also started crunching numbers on manufacturing. Fast forward a bit and I've setup my own POS for T2 manufacturing (also sold another plex in here I believe, memory fails me). However shortly after starting on my T2, I had to take a unintended break from EVE and was unable to log on for a number of months. Upon my recent return, to my dismay, although quite predictable, all my modules were gone, with only the tower remaining. From 1.5-2bil to 300~ mil.

What I'm going to do
I kept all my BPOs (they were locked down in a station), and thus I have everything I need to make the same profit levels again, except for the capital (Had around 300 mil after I got rid of the tower and other minor items). The money will be used to help get everything producing again, with the profit margins essentially the same as they were before.

The actual bond:

Total: 750 mil
Interest: 12% per month, to be paid exactly 30 days after the money is received.
Duration: One month.
Early withdrawal: 1 week notice required, and under the condition of receiving no interest payment.

I would prefer a single investor, however will negotiate if that cannot happen.

Obvious Question:

Audit? - From what I've read there is very little in the way of an Audit service these days, however I will give anyone who I deem likely to invest my full API key to both accounts to verify my history/current assets/characters. Also to save you time, after someone has actually invested I will reveal everything about what I plan to do to them, when where and how (although you could probably figure most of that out without me).

Why don't you just fund yourself with a GTC again? - A change in financial situation means this isn't as easy, however I also felt like using the GTCs was cheating, and it also meant I skipped a lot of the learning phase. I feel that this bond will be a good experience and a new challenge.

What happens if you have to take an 'unintended break' from EVE again? - The chances of this happening (within the bounds of the universe as we know it) for the same reason as before are 0. I am not going to reveal what it was. I obviously cannot provide insurance against being hit by a meteor etc however burnout chance is next to zero.

Do I have collateral? - The NPC value of the BPOs probably wouldn't come close (can't check atm, only just occurred to me), however if they do then I will be happy to offer them (as long as I can still access them close to home).

You said you got into EVE the "second half of last year" but it looks like Red was created in Dec 2007, which would make him nearly 4 years old now. Explain more clearly?

getting into eve more seriously, not just playing for a couple months then leaving. I actually enjoy the game and even pvp. check my KB stats on battleclinic if you are not convinced.

lol! I knew I had read that GTC = cheating part somewhere.
