There's the one guy earlier in this thread from Rionning Alba who has seemingly 6 accounts.
There's no discount. As your character grows up, it becomes relatively easy to make isk, and you can use the isk to buy time cards from other places in this forum. So technically you can play for free (or more accurately, someone else buys the time card, and then trades it to you for isk - CCP still gets paid). I'm sure a lot of people with isk do that.
But, having an alt makes the game an order of magnitude easier. Maybe easier isn't the word I'm going for, but more like, you can do more things, specialize in more stuff, have more alts in more places in empire for moving stuff or price checking, that kind of thing.
I've just got the standard "one combat char plus one industry / capital ships alt". A lot of people have a main for PVP and an alt that they use to grind isk. Or a specialist PVP char, a capital ships char, and an empire alt. Or an alt who's sole function is to sit in their mothership logged off while they pvp in their mothership char. I've been thinking about getting a mission running alt for a while now, but $45/mo is a lot to ask of the wife, so I'm guessing that won't happen until that alt can pay for themselves, and still turn a profit.

Right there with you. For some reason I can't remember, I stopped training BC V yesterday and thought, "I'll just go ahead and knock out cruise missiles III real quick". 4h left.
It's the telepathic forum PVP ...
How to PVP: 1. buy ISK with GTCs, 2. fit cloak, learn aggro mechanics, 3. buy second account for metagaming

Cap Pilot/PvP Pilot/Indy Pilot for my set up... $45/m is a hit to the wallet but within reason since this is the only MMO iam playing atm.. Considering before EvE i was playing 2-3 other monthly MMOs.
