A fair offer at 50mil, but I think 'help' was the word cause the player currently dosen't make millions to pay you.

Here is some free advice.
1)It takes money to make money. There is no ôfast trackö. The first million is the hardest. From there it gets easier.
2)Upgrade. Reinvest your earnings back into skills, ships, and equipment that improve your efficiency at revenue generating tasks. Time is money.
3) If you cannot buy, shop. Knowing the market values of items at various locations is key to making money trading. Just because you canÆt buy it, does not mean you should not note it.
4)Learn how to fly industrials. These are the primary revenue machines of Eve.

In all seriousness: Do not expect too much in the way of direct help. Those who make good money invariably do so by having found out something "that works"; keeping those who know about it to the minimum is the key in maintaining its worth.
In EVE the more who know about something the less it is worth. Given that the best general advice you are likely to get is:
Buy Low, sell High.
The only real path to making that generate good money is by grinding away at "The Game" (and i mean trading not EVE) until you find you personal little patch of gold.
Nobody is going to give you the address of one for free... if it ooks like they are then I can pretty much guarentee you its a scam, trap or plain bad info.

Jupp, he is right, it takes ISK to make ISK. And you cant be afraid to spend ISK to play the market, and you need patience.
Mineral prices in different regions tend to vary some. You can try buy minerals and resell them again other places for a handy profit, but there is really no such thing as fast ISK unless you are lucky.
I have made a nice mint several times by picking up a cheap ship on the market in one region, and moved it to another region and sold it again.
If you got high refining skills it can pay out to make huge buy orders of ORE, refine it and resell the minerals. atm this is a bit fubar with the asteroid belts in empire space look as they do.
Or you can go into production of items that is in demand, get your production effiency skill up to level 5 and you save tons of minerals in production, and can offer products at reasonable prices and still make a mint.
EVE is what you make it out to be, good luck out there.

I have noticed the fact many mention trading as source of isk here. I concur that for those good at it, it might well be the best way to make isk in the game.
There are however more sources that can make you alot of isk at low risk, that do not require alot of isk to invest.
Mining and missions are the prime two for people starting out. It will take some patience, but once you have been upgrading your ships and skill youll notice it gets easier fast.
It is hard to make that isk alone tho. Maybe you should team up with some people.

consider joining a corp - thats one way to get "free information", many corps help/train/teach there new members in the ways the corp work - if you do some corp jumping you can proberbly pickup some different ways of makeing good isks.
If you want to stay independent you will proberbly have to work/pay for info.

Diversification and product placement, those are keys.
Chances are, the more products you make, the larger a market you can serve. Place products in different regions. Decide what profit margins you will accept, and stick to them.
Start off with one or two products, try out to see how they sell. You don't have to have a large capital investment. Buy a couple of BPc's, mine the minerals yourself, make the products that you want to try selling, and ACTUALLY try selling them. Place them in multiple regions and be patient.
If you find something that works, stick to it. Maybe buy the original blueprint.Try not to overbuild tho, that is bad for prices and profit margins.

Making money takes a lot of time. For newer players, mining or agent running is probably your best bet. Eve is just like rea life when it comes to making the big bucks. You have to have money to make money. Battleship Original BP's are a good way to make money becuase you can sell one run copies all day. But its a huge initial investment and it will take you a while to start making a profit.
The best way to make money is to just keep your eyes open for anything that looks profitable. You have to be at the right place at the right time. Always check the market for freakishly profitable trades. And always look for new tech1 bp's that have just appeared on the market. Find something that people want to buy that isn't being supplied and make it. Also, selling offices is a good way to make lots of money if you get lucky enough to rent an office in a popular system.
It's also possible to manipulate the market by finding some item that is in very small supply, buying all of that item in the major regions, and then jacking up the price and reselling it. If you are the only person supplying something then you can make lots of money, but you have to make sure that there is a real demand for soemthing before you do this, or you'll get burned.
And of course, blowing up indies full of zydrine/mega is nice, if you ever to happen across one of those...but general its a lot of work to make lots of money, unless of course you get a good scam going...

If you join a corp, you can all pitch in to buy an orginal BP, then share the money you make copying it.
