I am mainly a combat guy. Started life in EvE as a miner - left that - now I am doing missions and stuff and want to get into doing something that can make good cash.
I have 100mil and this hauler that I am devoting to this adventure.
Where do I start? Just bounce from region to region buying low selling high?
Would I be better spent in investing into a company? If so what would be a good one to invest in?
Where can basically a total noob start in on this?
My goal? Basically try to come up with a way to have a good way to make isk in empire while financing low sec - 00 hunting and not worry about replacing ships. Try to maybe find a good way of making money with out being online - Let my isk work for me.
In a pinch I could even get about 400mil if I moved some stuff around. I just want to maximize profit obviously while at the same time don't let myself loose my shirt. I understand no risk no gain - but I am looking for something mid risk mid gain to start.
Where do I begin?

Just to add I am going through the noob guides in the stickies. Just looking for more view points on it.
If it matters I mainly hang out in Domain space.

My isk definitely comes from the time I spend online, not off. "Buy low, sell high" sounds simple, but it's not as much so as it seems.
Keep your eyes open and try trading in things that are familiar to you. You might be more suited as an industrialist than as a purchaser/reseller, depending on your personal preference, so keep that in mind also. If you want to have a lot more fun doing this, try to get your Procurement skill up to 3 or 4 - that really helps me feel like I'm the 'lord of my domain', and my back yard is everyplace within 20 jumps. |

Trading is always buying low and selling high(er).
If you are out in 0.0 then you would know what is needed most out there and how high the prices are compaired to high sec space. You could then move those items needed from high sec to 0.0 and make lots of isk that way.
If you only want to stay in high sec space you need to look at a market and see what sell for less in one area and more in another and see if you can make enough isk hauling from one place to another.

If you just want to finance your pew pew then you will never enjoy hauling for a lengthy period of time just like mining.
Look at all the IPOs in here and consider them instead of doing something you won't enjoy.

To make money without being online you can invest it, but 400 mil isn't enough to get any kind of decent return. You can also do trade, research, or invention. For all of these you'll need to spend some time online setting up orders or invention or research jobs, but otherwise these activities are quite passive and quite safe if you stay in high security space.

Edited by: Redbad on 18/10/2007 20:22:47 Buy some POS fuels in low sec and move them to the high-sec entrances near 0.0 space. This has funded my endeavours for quite a long time until I found something more lucrative.
In good weeks I could make 150 million, bad weeks about 50 million. Averaged out to about 100 mio week. Not much, but as I am a cautios PvP-er it worked for me.
Good luck with it!

Find war zone, but I mean it WAR ZONE where atleast 100 vs 100 ppl are hammering their heads. And look for oportunities (longer engagments are clearing out the market) - I'm doing atleast 100 mln's a day with that, maybe take some T2 ammo in Transport ship to 0.0

Don't put all 100mil isk in stuff in your hauler, as you will probably be suicide ganked.

100m * 5% = 5m/month *7% = 7m/month 400m * 5% = 20m/month *7% = 28m/month

I've flown around with way more than that and never got suicided.
a hauler with 100m worth of big stuff isn't worth it when there's covops flying around with multiple battleship bpos and other such idiocy.
