My wallet holds 532M, couple of BS, couple of inty's/AF's, loads modules in my hangar and that's after losing 750M isk to a silly mistake.
However, I'm pretty sure I'm nowhere near being even in the top 5k richest players.

It's pretty easy to make a consistent 20mil an hour in Empire, it's just boring. I found a 27m/hour money maker last week so a few tedious hours of that got me a new equipped BS which I took straight into 0.0 for some fun
Making money in 0.0 space can be much faster though, with a bit of luck.

100,xxx,xxx ISK Apoc Arma Raven Scorpion Cyclone 200,000,000 in named gear
That's pretty poor really. I'd say I'm in the top 85% but the people in the top 99% are so far above me it's sickening.
Getting a job and a girlfriend really hurt my isk making ability. I can't hunt NPCs for 12 hours a day anymore

Last night heard that an old friend had 25 bil in his wallet, which seems reasonable to me. If you don't actively PvP, and you've been carebearing it up for a year you should easily have 10-20 bil.
I've got about 200 mil in cash, and about 1.5 bil in assets, and I'm just a small time Pirate

Yeah.
Anyway, making 100 mil a day isn't really that hard, if you have the skills and initial funds to do lvl 4 missions. And the mental stamina.

You need to get a level 4 agent first, mind you.. And you have to solo them for that kind of cash, don't you?
I'm relatively poor and would like to make a billion isk, so I'm open to suggestions. otehrwise, I'll just be mining hemorphite and jaspet for weeks :/.

Well, one contender would be the individual winner of the colossus race.
1x rattlesnake gurista faction BS, which is and will stay one of the rarest ships in eve for a loong time due to the difficulty of doing the right missions in 0.0 space. It came equipped with all dread gurista mods in all its slots btw, at least thats what i hear.
Next ot that he also got one of the caldari navy ravens with all caldari navy modules fitted in its slots.
Rattlesnake: 5-7 billion, caldari raven: 3-5...? total: a shetload of isk.

hard to say how much exactly i have since i have quite a few ships as well,but probably not far off 2.5 billion between isk,ships.named/tech 2 modules and minerals...Strange thing is that i made more in empire than i did in 0.0 space if you figure in the NPC farming/combat related losses while in 0.0 space.

Well, one year or more ago, a certain someone put every bs they had, no isk, other assets, though i dont think there were large named guns then, anyway, he put them all in a trade window, there were 63 battleships. one year ago...
dont even know if they play eve now.
Anyway i make anywhere from 0isk - about 350m a day. Living in 4gq is quite profitable.. but i havent sold most, isk wise i only have around 800, 2 bs :(.

Well, then...since the post underneath... I've gotten two T2 bpo that I have sold along with mining mad and doing missions like crazy. I was also one of the largest sellers in Nonni at one time however I have moved on to other things lately...
So, I have done it all I guess.

Maybe a grand total of 1 Bill for me, in ISK and assets. Perhaps a bit more.
Heres my version of the question: what the heck drives people to acquire much more than a billion? With what I've got now I simply have no desire to continue accumulating wealth. It would take a MASSIVE stroke of bad luck to put any kind of dent in my personal wealth, so why bother? I can spend a few hours here and there NPC'ng to replace any losses. ISK bounties and named loot sales, plus crap loot recycling means theres almost no reason to spend ISK, least for me

I had 7 isk 4 weeks ago. Count em 1 2 3 4 5 6 7.
Luckily I have played eve a year and have never recycled anything or sold anything - was probably why I have always been skint. My hangers were bursting at the seams. So it has been sell sell sell for a month. I almost have enough to buy some torps now ..

You reach a point in this game when you can't help but make money.
I took a break from printing ISK, to go kill something.
4 hours later. 15 mill in bounties and rewards. 10 mill in loot. 25 mill in in zydrine, megacyte and nocxium.
Thats 50 mill having fun, not trying to make a profit.

Mine goes up and down depending on what nice things appear on the market and escrow, but never goes below 500m. Total assets probably 4bn if I counted them up.

Originally by: hired goon Yeah but what, was that pvp? pvp is the REAL fun / isk sink.
Nope, but we do PvP. Have to be in the mood for it though, for quick hits of PvP the corp hits our COD UO server. PvP is not as big a money sink as it used to be with the insurance changes. I can remember BS loss being a game stopper for some people. Now you can recoup insurance loss in no time at all. You don't have to be in 0.0 to do it either. Once you're at a certain level, if you played for 8hrs in a day you can lose 4 BS in that period without any worry. You can end up sat in the same BS at the end of the 8hrs. Standard equipment and a few tech2 items only mind you. You don't have to be in 0.0 either.

Originally by: Rodge It's pretty easy to make a consistent 20mil an hour in Empire, it's just boring. I found a 27m/hour money maker last week so a few tedious hours of that got me a new equipped BS which I took straight into 0.0 for some fun
Making money in 0.0 space can be much faster though, with a bit of luck.
Originally by: Susie Homemaker Well, I personnally make over 100 million a day so that's 3 billion a month.
You do the math.
I would LOVE to know how the heck you make that sort of cash so fast!!??

I have only 500m at the moment, plus 5 battleships (scorp, raven, geddon, apoc, megathron) and about 400m in mods (named and tech II). I think I'm pretty average in terms of wallet size.
Those with many billions probably either got a nice tech II blueprint or don't mind mining every day for their whole lives. Personally, everything I do in Eve I get sick of after a while and have to go do something else. Mining last month. Agent missions this month. Next month, who knows.....

I keep swinging between 1 mill and 100 mill in ISK, not more then 1 BS a few cruisers and frigates. Rest get's invested in corp and corpmates. I have a few very good friends in my corp so I reckon I rather have 2 or 3 people I can trust 200% then a few bill.

247mil isk, 30k Megacyte and two interceptors
Havent really made much isk from Carebearing in the past, mined for about 10 hours in cache and did some npcing for about a week somewhere in curse.
I just seem to generate isk in strange ways, maybe one day someone will eject from his battleship, thats enough isk to allow me to lose another 2. Another some items i have had might rise in value and i am able to sell them for a lot more than i bought them for.

I dunno, but I guess there are ppl with alot more than 20 billions.
I consider myself to be very poor. And that means ~1.5B isk + X isk assets.
Given that last time I did PvE, which now is like 10 months ago, I made approx 1B isk in one week from bountys on NPCs + loot value (though most loot was donated to corp('no ³berloot back then' - modulated tachyon was best find)).
I sure played alot during that week, but I only have 1 account, and someone doing PvE all the time has some blueprints just popping out copies all the time. So, I'd guess there are ppl with about 70B isk...

Agree. Even tho technically 10 equals to 2, it shows lack of understanding of binary and only shows that person has heard of binary and thinks he's "c00l".
With 10 setup, you are comparing a two digit binary to decimal number and also stating two possibilities. And everyone knows that you get 4 possibilities with two bit binary.
Better way to put it then:
"There are people who understand binary, and people who do not"
then allocate one bit for the data and state it as either
user.understand_binary=%0
or
user.understand_binary=%1
after this, I'll go home.

What are you talking about? I think you're on *****. :) Where is this stuff about assigning variables and stuff coming from?
It's a tagline in-joke, since only people who know binary will get it.
Using it doesn't show that he falls into the category of people that don't understand binary.
"With 10 setup" doesn't even make any sense. With a number set up? How do you set a number up? Eh.

Well, I was gonna leave it, but you are both on smack.
The initial sig statement is incorrect... it doesnt matter how many variables you assign it to, or which way the moon is facing when you say it... binary "10" never equals 2... Ever..
The joke is that the joke is incorrect... So the person making a statement that there are 10 types of people in the world are saying in normal speech:
"There are 1 types of people in this world, those who understand binary, and those who dont"...

My binary must be rusty then...
Dec = Bin 0 = 0 1 = 1 2 = 10 3 = 11
So in the context of the joke, they are correct no?

and tech 2 lottery is a joke, you can start the research, not even play for a month and make billions at random
I know of one person who got three crow bpos in one week, from the same agent with less than 2k RP :|
starbases were supposed to be the biggest isk sink next to pvp but ccp didn't know how to make them interesting, so they made them "profitable" just so people would use them.. and even then, there is no risk.
more isk is going into eve than out and it frankly makes everything really really "easy" as pvp has no risk in the long run, and even without 0.0 access you can get stupidly rich _____________________________________ Perpetually driven, your end is our beginning.
