ISK is meaningless. The real currencies are effort, and risk.

go long. There are several massive opportunities for the long term investor at the minute. You will need patience to do this but returns over 12 - 24 months will be better than burning out in 1 month trying to turn it over.

well im a total amateur in terms of my market play tbh but my strongest hint would be:

find items that are at a........ ...... items.

See I always figure those Jita orders for ...........people with spare ISK sitting around who ...........in the future ..... .........some other aspect of the game that ..... Then consider you have bought....a pop that is ...is the potential ....and you have ...measurement is a....for a potential ..... the future?

The .......little to do with.....but its the kind of mind .......for going long.



we are experiencing technical difficulties.

Thanks for the replies. Is trading only thing that scales with the capital one has? If you factor the work needed ofc.

If that money is really just sitting into your wallet and you never go deep into it and you lack the imagination to do something with it, then I would suggest to find others that could put this money into good use. In other words: Become an investor/the partner of someone and put it to work like that.


Btw, in a sidenotice, I can always use more, I'm far from my limits... ;)

I'm too ADD to put away a serious percentage of my NAV on long-ball gambles, even if they look air-tight. Most of the time though I can bring myself to squirrel away 15-20% on such things and I will admit that there are a few I have invested in at the moment and plan to sit on for around a year, looking for about 4x return.

Turning through two Tycoon alts every day has presented me with a bit of a limit (don't want another trade alt to manage either) so I can see myself going heavier into the long investments sooner or later if my success with daily and weekly ventures keeps going. I estimate my NAV between the two trade characters to be about 40bil atm.

The best part about investing with so much capital is the ability to really diversify in a wide range of markets. Once you get the hang of spotting good trades at a glance you should be able to manage churning a few billion a day with ease. My two tycoons cost me about 45mins a piece which I perform once a day to once a week depending on how busy I am, what I am invested in, and how the market is acting at that time of year (ie. summer is usually slower).

Ultimately your best bet is to start investing small in a lot of places and see where you can get some depth. Patch-day billions only come along every so often and they do make traders rich, but having solid principles and an ability to make isk off everyday trading is something that will keep you rich and won't force you to be reliant on the long-game and having large parts of your NAV tied up all the time.

production scales. but i don't think 10B is enough to get started with the bigger items in eve.
