A space-Scrooge would write scripts to compile their wealth data, or worse _manually_ count their isk among alts… 😬

I collect enough isk to play with toys. Right now my ‘break point’ is when I have less than 1 billion isk (no, it isn’t hard to get there). Above a billion I ask myself, what do I do with it? So I drink a few drinks, put a couple blue things on the ship, and go die…er fight… somewhere.
