Most of the poco are run by large groups who pay mercs to keep them safe, someone last year had a go at taking down the Empire, we had battles the likes of which hadnā€™t been seen before. Itā€™s a hard but to crack.

If you didnā€™t get in on the ground floor when POCOs were introduced years ago, youā€™re out of luckā€¦

Yes, POCOs are worth it, if you can keep them. I did some quick numbers, just for you my friend:

Cost to buy and upgrade a customā€™s office gantry (Jita Sellers): 164,746,000

I am doing a P1 to P2 conversion on one planet with 20 processors. If I was running this 24/7, with a 7.5% tax rate, I would spend approximately 2.4 million a day in taxes.

If I was the only person using your POCO, you would get your money back in ~69 days.

High sec POCOs have an additional 5% tax from CONCORD, which would mean I would actually pay 12.5% in tax. Looking around my current neighborhood in Amarr space, I donā€™t see anything lower than 15%.

My advice: If you can keep them, get six POCOs in one system with an NPC station. Advertise on the forums that youā€™re offering low taxes to PI industrialists who move to your system, and work out some deals.
