I spend all my isk on blueprints, hookers and blow. But after spending on blueprints, there is no money left for hookers and/or blow.

How much growth are you looking for in what time frame? The higher the growth/shorter the time frame the higher the risk.

Long term investments with little risk are things like BPO's. Put them in for research and watch their value increase. Short term high risk things you might want to look in to the FW market.

The same places I've invested the rest of my isk, which are (in rough order of quantity of isk invested):

Blueprints, characters, minerals, PLEXes and collateralized loans.

Yup, yup. It's the "new" Tech, dontcha know... Roll

Although, if you're aggressive you might still find margin in Isogen.

Given that I assume (as has been drummed into me from day one) that every person playing Eve is out to kill - scam - rob every other player, I would like to invest 1bill, even at a low but safe rate of return.

But how to tell the good person from all the bad ones?

Boy, Eve is hard.

If you have the right blueprints, the hookers and blow come to you:) I can't say whether the hookers still have their teeth or are under 50 but hey....

The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse [lady of commercial virtue]. We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.- James Nicoll

Gum jobs like this are very common in eve, specially when some one new comes around flaunting the elusive 1B isk

Don't buy blueprints unless you know how to use them to make money. 1b is too little to invest in characters and PLEXes.

Best is to buy stuff cheap and sell at a profit. There are about a million ways to do this.

Any colour you like.

1 bil is not even remotely investment worthy.
