2. WH Capital escalations are awesome, but not really viable for the 3-6 month old player.
3. Scamming isn't really an option here.
4. I'm aware trading is the ultimate income generator if you can manage it, bit more intensive of a task, and not quite as obviously exciting as other activities.
5. What do you think IS reasonable for a 3-6 month old char? 20m/hr? 50m/hr?
Been a long time since I was a 3-6mo. If you want some excitement, try ninja salvaging. It'll teach you a little of the skills you'll need for PVP. At the time I was doing it I was, like you a noob, making about 30 - 60mil an hr. Those days are gone now with the loot nerfs and noctis. But it may still provide a decent income for little investment. I dunno. Give it a try.
My next suggestion would be mission or incursions.
Next would be wh splunking though you're going to spend a lot of time finding a hole from hs that isn't occupied/active. It'll be very dangerous for you.
Ultimately, unless you want to focus all of your time into one activity to achieve more income, it would be better to diversify into passive income streams like PI. But you might want to get into a corporation with their own POCO's to do it to avoid the astronomical taxes in HS. Or don't and just produce P2 products for simplification. The great thing about PI is you can pretty much set your own hassle levels. Do I want to hassle with it every day or once a month?
Then there's production. Takes more effort and you have to produce/sell in timely fashions to take advantage of markets but, it can be hands off for a few days.
And you can trade relatively hassle free though it may be months before you realize any profit. Look for a product that has cyclical up's and down's. Buy when it's down....wait....sell when it's up.
