An EVE player who I did not know previously asked me to invest 3bn of his money for him. He said he would be gone for three months. It has now been six months and he still hasn't returned to the game. What should I do with the ISK? I'm tired of investing for him seeing as I'm getting no personal income from it.

I'd see about discussing a long term investment with either bank, or another player within the secondary market.
I'd be willing to give 4% over 3 months
I was thinking of depositing it, but if he is this long overdue I'm thinking that he has abandoned the game completely. Who knows.

Thanks guys for all your advice. I was considering just sending it to the character but I now see that is not a good idea. I've not made a final decision, but I'm thinking now of putting his profits in EBank and using the 3 bil (investing it) and considering the income my fee for the job. Seems like the best option.

This is not a friend, so the argument that he would be in throes about how his poor friends isk is sitting idle and suffering the inflation is not his motivator. So lets not debate as if it was.
John Holt, you cant keep the isk. It is not yours. You have no right to it. You made an agreement to keep possesion of it for 3 months and you have gone far longer without returning it.
Ive read this forum for more than 2 years, since I stopped playing in 2007. And Im really surprised that you would be stumbling over a curb this small, your other posts havent been reflective of that character flaw... and it is a flaw that you cannot grasp something that is really very simple... a small, tiny to be honest, temptation and youre falling flat on your face.
MD is not an authority to liberate you from your personal responsibility in taking this guys isk for your own. Dont go there. What a dissapointment.
Shar is spot on.
I have no intention of taking the isk for myself. I was asking for options on how I should handle the matter now that the individual is over due.
I've decided to just rid myself of the problem and I've sent the ISK to toon. Simple enough.
