I have spent the last two days ratting in 0.0..
A lot of people say missions are boring. Try doing the same type of rat all day long.

If you are ratting in good space you get way more isk ratting, and you have a chance to get officer spawns, which give out a few hundred mill, to a few bill in loot. Sure it can be boring, but meh, its all for the pvp in the end.

Ratting in 0.0 is more interesting than missions for me cause you always have the threat of a red or a neut popping in system. In missions (especially in hi-sec), the game could not be any more boring.
I also do sweeps for Cosmic Anomalies, which produce better rats and faster than belt ratting as well as having more interesting set pieces to look at.

id say L4's > 0.0 ratting. with salvage, bounties, loot, time bonus and mission payout you can get > 10mill in 30 mins. 0.0 ratting is about the same, except you need access to a station and a way to sell your loot/minerals from reprocessing. ratting can pay off if you run into rare spawns. you may get 2 in a day, or zero in a week. L4's is a nice steady income. ratting is fun for a few days, then it gets extremely boring (for me at least). in missions, youre at least multitasking when salvaging/looting stuff.

Lolwut. 10m is possible in 15 minutes in 0.0 ratting in bounties ALONE. As for loot, I tend to leave 90%+ of mine to perish in the void of space. I'll keep meta 4 modules and any ammo I can use but that's about it. This is because I operate ridiculously far away from the nearest station however; those with ready access to outposts or stations get to keep all their loot.
As for missions being less boring than 0.0 ratting... maybe. After you've done them for months though and you know the triggers by memory, things change. L4 salvage and bounties are pathetic compared to 0.0 salvage and bounties for the exact same rats. IIRC an Angel Malakim is around 800k bounty in a L4 or plex (deadspace rat) and 1.4m in a belt (asteroid rat). Ratting is EXTREMELY steady income, aside from reds coming into your system or someone breaking the chain. Contrast this with getting multiple 'bleh' missions in highsec, i.e. Buzz Kill and its ilk.

If you have safe 0.0 with a low sec rating then 0.0 will be more profitable. I think the best money is to salavge and just grab modules that are valuable.
If you think corp is different than a guild or clan you have some insecurity issues.

My Opinion:
0.0 sec status:
> -0,5 Mission is FAR better
< -0,5 nearly equal
< -0,5 + Officer possibilaty 0.0 slightly better
With LP/Loot/Salvage I get around 40 to 80 Mio/h with Missionrunning. Kronos T2/Faction fitted.
in 0.0 you need empty systems with good Spawns to be effective.

Ratting is horrifyingly boring, missions aren't a whole lot better.

This!
I'll admit, I like missioning slightly better, because atleast it's differetn rats. But catching a Faction/officer spawn in a belt is cool to.
exploration blows ratting and missions completely out of the water though.
