Just another example of today's generations demanding instant gratification. I can understand being frustrated but come on, not everything comes with a "I win" button.

I come with an "I win" button. Really, it's right on my desktop right now. 
To the OP, I enjoy playing on low SP accounts for the lol factor of wtfpwning people with 10x my SP. With this account I fly mainly frigs and cruisers even though I am over 30mil SP now. Seriously... learn to play the game before suggesting changes.

Veterans are more versatile, but not better at a given task.
If you reach all skills that affects piloting an interceptor, you can't get better at it. You just can train other skills that affects other parts of the game.

Yes. You can buy SP with ISK. Make a lot of ISK and go to the character bazar. I can't see the problem.

Until CCP allows me to buy skill points, there is no way I will ever compete with someone who has 50 million or more skill points. That is the problem with being new to a game that has been out this long. You will never be competitive against such a large SP gap. But I'm sure CCP has no problem taking my money. 
Okay go play another game. We will stay here in this unfair game where we can not possibly compete with 5 year old players.

Experience suggests you're not a person thats going to stay with EVE save yourself the time and money and leave.
If you're still here after the standard sunscribers 7 month period I'll be very surprised.

I think it's quite cheap the way it is. For some billions you can save yourself years of skill training. ISK in this game is not hard to do.
I did the calculation once some time ago and if you make 1 bi a month you're basically making 4 times as much skillpoints as if you played normally. 1 bi a month is not hard to make for someone who should be playing enough to worry about equality. So you can just pretend every 250 million ISK you're leveling up and each million SP is a level  and add a 25% bonus to this XP if you sell your character before cashing the XP points. Numbers have changed/inflated but you got the idea.

You can actually buy skillspoints - by buying a character you effectively by-pass the "wait", and get ahead of the line.
If anyone from CCP reads this, I think allowing players to buy anything but a subscription was a mistake. Granted you DO make more money, but the game suffered and continues to suffer.

Sorry if this has been said but OP do you even realise what the hell EVE is?
This isn't WoW, this isn't an instant gratification game, this is a community, to make progress in this world you need two things: Time and Patience, if you don't have them then stop playing EVE it's not for you, people have worked YEARS to get to that 50 mil SP and you want to get there overnight, no, travel their path, experience EVE and maybe then you'll see why there's no SP buying.
That is my two cents and I hope it stops this senseless flaming of people.

You want to buy SP? Give me 50B and I'll sell you my main, 65M SP, or go buy another character. There's a sub-section in this forum for that.

Guys, that is rediculous!
Why do you think that if you have less skill points (so less age) that you have more money? According to my experience the average amount of money is also increasing with age. A million ISK is much for a beginner, but not worth leaving the station for a player who plays EVE for 2 years!
Therefore selling SP for ISK would actually increase the gap between newbees and veterans!
I would be glad to have this, but I am a rich bastard so I would get a titan pilot in comparatively short time...
So just forget this bullshit!
Anyway, getting SP as payment from CCP for voluntarty work or for exceptional occasions would be a nice thing 
I submitted so many defects to their database and got nothing for that (well they fixed a few of them - thats at least some payment). And if a winner of a tournament get 1m SP - fine - he deserved it.
... but not for money!
Regards,
Eve G.

Besides this obvious scam parody, this shows exactly my point from above: He believes that 100m ISK for 1m SP is a good/high price. If this would be the prise I would fly a titan in less then a month! And I doubt that any noob could affort even 1m SP to buy....
So this would really increase the gap between new players and old players!
Besides that there is the possibility to by ISK for real money and with your proposed extension you could buy indirectly SP for real money... so the rich players get better characters? Not really fair, aint it?
