how do you have those trillions investet? 50% isk 50% assets? whats the ratio?


Right now I have perhaps a billion isk in liquid cash, as I'm flipping assets and immediately plowing the cash into other investments.

In six months that number will probably be quite a lot larger though...



That little ISK?

I'm worth maybe one-half of one percent of what you are (10b at absolute most), but I tend to keep at least 10% of it in liquid ISK and 20-30% of the rest in bulk traded commodities so that I can respond quickly to any opportunity I see. For instance I buy tech 2 ammo and tech 2 combat drones at low points in their price fluctuations and flip them when they recover, which requires capital - and if I had 30-40b, I'd be doing that with ship hulls too.

The rest of my wealth is mostly working capital, combat ships and scamming materials (970000m^3 of junk for courier contracts that are harder to complete than they first look, etc). T1 BPOs and invented T2 BPCs make up a good deal of it and they are obviously not easily sold but pay for themselves in time; the rest is materials for production/invention jobs.


By virtue of not having enough liquid ISK, I missed an opportunity recently to buy a bunch of Enyo hulls for 2000m and resell them for 2600m - obviously you deal with much larger numbers but the principle is the same.
