Serious answer
Started in 2008-ish, built up things nicely and had accrued about 40bn in cash and more in assets. Lost it all through Somerblink and the like in about three days. A bit abysmal, but that's me for you :)
Came back to the game after a three year hiatus. Saw how things had changed, and also saw how I could make an income for myself. I borrowed some money from some nice people, and now I'm slowly getting to where I want to be, and having fun too.
Short answer: find something that interests you and make it profitable.

As someone I respect so eloquently put it recently, to grow your wallet you just need:
"More green numbers than red numbers"
So buying less an be just as useful as earning more.

Like charging your PVP expenses to your alliance to keep them low...

I made my first bill on a char with 0 skills in just longer than a day. I promised to double the amount of isk people sent me if they followed some simple rules. And so I was turned to the dark side, never again would I grind missions... |

Making isk in a sh*t game is a waste of time. Find something more productive to do.
Selling a Silver Magnate for 1 trillion isk. No less.

Well, you can always resort to buying a PLEX for cash and selling it.
For many people, the time and effort of grinding for ISK just isn't worth it.

If you train a trader you will find that no other pod-pilot will earn more.
Hope that simplifies the complexity of your problem scope? Or is it too accurate to be true? It has to sink in to work, not necessarily burn a laser hole in your brain.
But then again, light sabers are real, so I digress.
On the other hand I know people who want exotic dancers... The only trick is, where?

Hey Boss.
I've been playing since 2006 and only at roughly 1 year ago I broke 1 billion.
You want to play the game or you want to horde a statistic?

Answer technical questions, share game tips, enter forum contests for prizes, post in the right "I'm quitting" threads (not ragequitters) to offer to take care of their stuff. Between tips, winnings and item contracts, it can be pretty good at times quite a bit more last month than what you haven't broken yet. Sometimes..
Hmmm... in-game. Have you tried the career agent's yet? Really, it's like you are either self sufficient or you are not. All you really need is enough isk to keep your play-style funded. A lot of different ways to do that. I mostly just shoot stuff for isk, but there is trading too, though I don't do that as much anymore since I rather shoot stuff. It just depends what you do. You could buy a couple PLEX when it goes on sale, sell it when the time is right, spend less time trying to make isk in-game and more time for irl. irl is the ultimate mmo, imo.

Sell your arm, use proceeds to fund trading. Do you really need a lot of isk to have fun in this game, though?

Short of scamming, there's very few ways of making huge amounts of ISK quickly. Not being much of a scammer myself, I've found the trick is to make moderate ISK regularly, along with keeping expenses down as much as possible.
To this end, I run some Planetary Interaction and try to do an 'average' of ~2-4 anomalies a day, usually Hubs, as I currently lack the skills to fly big blingy ISK Printers.
While I could *probably* make more mining than ratting, I do a lot of LowSec flying and prefer to keep my security status positive via ratting than expensive tags. I also try to make use of ALL the resources that cross my path. So I'll deploy MTUs while ratting, sell the loot worth hauling to Jita and melt the rest down for minerals.
Keeping expenses down is pretty simple and 90% of it is basic stuff like watching local, not ratting AFK and not going bonkers putting unreasonably expensive mods on paper-thin frigates. A faction web on a Daredevil is one thing, an A-Type MWD on a Maulus is something completely different. The main method of keeping costs down is SRP, join an alliance or corp that has a good SRP program and you can PvP for cheap!
edit: FYI, you've been playing twice as long as me.......

While it takes some time, exploration for data and relic sites in null and WH space brings in the ISK. It's boring the majority of the time and you will lose ships. But get an escalated data site and you could be sitting on your first billion with one site. Word to the wise though, join a good alliance for support. If you go ninja, you'll lose ships but it's more fun than running around the same space all the time.

Blitz SoE L4 and burner missions (you can easily make $100-million+ ISK/hour; some players are pulling in over $300-million+ ISK/hour). Even if you can't run the burner missions you can still make out ok with the regular L4s. Apply the profits to improving your implants and ship for faster completion times. Wash, rinse - repeat.

You must be doing something terribly wrong.
My crappiest Toon flying a Vexor Navy Issue can make 1 billion isk in 18 hours of damn enar afk ratting. Another toon flying a stealth bomber (or a Drake) in faction warfare missions doesn't even take that long. (FW missions aren't as good as they were in 2013 because of market saturation, but I can still pull 200 mil per hour after converitng LP...with a frigate sized spaceship). And all of what I do pales in comparison to a market trader type.
