So I'm looking for a way to make ISK and won't have to spend too much time playing. I also don't want a prof that seems grindy...(like mining... sorry miners).
So, what professions do you recommend?
Thanks |

Minimal grind?
Set aside one hours pay each day and buy GTCs. Split then into PLEXes and sell for 550k (or whatever the going rate is now) each.
Mr Epeen There are 86,400 seconds in a day. You just saved one of them by typing 'u' instead of 'you'.-á Congratulations, dumbass! |

A good way to reduce the grind factor is to only do stuff you enjoy, so definitely don't so mining cause that's not your thing and you'll end up quitting.
I put points into mining cause I wanted the isk but I only mined for a couple of weeks and then went and found something else. You can easily survive in new edan without visiting the fields.
So I only started a few months ago but I liked the look of the exploration mechanics and sure enough, ccp has a way I can gain isk without it feeling like a grind.
Wanna blow stuff up you can run missions/plexes, if you a number's person then try out the market/production side and if you just want to screw around with other people's head, I guess you can become a scammer. Don't just go for the one with the best isk/hr.
Low sp toons can make good isk thru the market, but I found there is a whole ton of competiton and you don't really sell that much while you are afk. Just too many folk will 0.01 isk you. But if you can find a few profitable items to manufacture then you'll get a good return on your time. |

Invention and research take up a lot of SP though, and similarly so does manufacturing at profit.
The rest are less SP and time intensive. Scams can be pulled with virtually little to no SP, just regular social engineering. Piracy requires knowledge of PVP and game mechanics which can also be time consuming but very rewarding in the end.
Trading/daytrading can be profitable, but you'll need capital to make any significant amounts of money. Start small and work your way up.
Gambling, also requires some capital, but again it's more down to luck than anything. Well you could also try hold em poker, if it's still running. |

Everything will become grind if you always do it solo. Everything is fun when you do it with nice people, even mining Find some friends to grind with them on a regular basis and you will make your money quickly while having fun. |

Exploration is good money for minimal time investment, as well as not requiring a huge amount of skills to train.
The only problem is that it isn't a consistent cash flow. There are days were a few hours will only get you 15m, and some where you make bank at a single site.
And don't do it in high sec, its almost pointless. My twitch stream to help new players: http://www.twitch.tv/biohazrd51
