I have recently and stupidly bought the Eve Billionaire guide for an excessive price of 38$ just to find out it's all a scam.
First of all, the guide doesn't tell you anything specific and just throws things to the air without even elaborating on them. It's like "figure it out on your own, and if you can't it's your problem". Anyone who manage to understand the guide does not need it as it means that he already knows everything there is to know, for those who feel they don't DO NOT BUY THE GUIDE as you will not understand anything from a very general and un-detailed guide. All it told me is that Trading is the best way to make ISK. Trust me it's a waste of money, as free guides helped me much more than this useless guide. The guide hasn't been updated since 2007 so most things are irrelevant and the author of the guide WILL NOT respond to your questions or requests of help in understanding his out-dated, over-priced and useless guide.
Here are some links to the guides and it's really all you need to know about trading, the guide won't tell you anything new, if anything it will tell you a lot less than you need to know to really become an eve online billionaire. The links also includes the basics stuff which the Eve Billionaire author was too lazy to include.
Guide 1
Guide 2
Guide 3
All of those guides are free, updated and gives you much more than the guide. There is nothing new the guide will be able to tell you that those links haven't.
Hope I helped and kept people from making the stupid mistake I did in buying this guide.

I think Even I could have told you that, It's the same with all the guides you can buy in game stores for other games, you pay a lot, they are incomplete and if you look around a bit on the internet you can find many detailed guides for free.
It's a shame you wasted your money on this... book, cause a guide it is not.

All guides for all games that are sold for money are basically scams. All the information is freely available on the internet by usually more than one source.
Never buy guides unless you're a collector and can't be helped anyway. -------- All I want is a better mankind.

I don't call that a Review, more of a "give a vague impression of what it is to lure in more people" video.
our maybe I'm just looking at it wrong.

Or... You can ask your rich buddies what they do?
I've been getting market trading pointers from a corp mate for awhile now. 1000 times better than a guide. And its free. |

I could write my own guide, so I think I will.
"Buy low and sell high"
That will be $20.00 please  Seriously it doesn't take a genius to work that out, I'm no expert on trading but last night I found some stuff worth trading and I was getting 11m isk for every 9 jumps I made, what could be easier than that?

Edited by: Eternum Praetorian on 29/06/2010 12:32:51 Here is free info on how to actually become a multibillionaire quickly in EVE:
Learn to play the .01 game and never undock. Then you will be trading your real life money, and your real life time, for a boring as dirt numbers game while you station spin. If you can sit at your computer for enough hours and play said .01 game for long enough, you will indeed get rich quickly. Of course you won't actually be playing the game.
Sound like fun?

For $38 you could have bought a 60 day GTC from Shattered Crystal and then sold it for 600m+ ISK.

I am monkies total lack of surprise...
You'd have more luck going to the md forum and getting someone to mentor you.
99% of pay guides out there will be little more than a pdf of stuff you can find on the web.
This isn't wow, people play their cards close to their chests for a reason.

The eve billionaire pretty much ticks all the boxes of a stereotype website offering promises and dreams for $19.99.
Avoid these at all costs.
