And you need to share this so called “fact” on an internet forum where most people lie through their teeth to gain adorations or applause?
Then you say this? You make so much and then youre undecided whether Eve, an online game, is a good “investment” of your riches? Smacks of desperation and the need to validate yourself.
But hey do whatever floats your boat.
As Mr Epeen and others have stated industry is a good route but its, like most things in Eve, quite cutthroat. Good margins though when I did it years ago… well decade now or more.
I just keep a float of a couple of B to make purchases and to pay for manufacturing jobs, but anything beyond that is usually spent on ships.
I like to keep at least 2 of any ship (more if I like em) fitted and ready so that if one gets blow’d up I can immediately use the second without an unscheduled schlep to Market.
I have a number of bases around New Eden and like to have a lot of the same stuff at each so that I can just jump into a clone and do stuff without wondering if I have what I need.
Am I missing out by not sitting on a high ISK balance?
Buying ingame currency is more efficient than grinding, but it can ruin the game for you as why spend time trying to get something when you can just buy it. What have you accomoplished when everythign you have was acquired with your credit card?
What risk do you take when you can replace all your losses easily with your credit card? Instead of using cheap frigates for pvp , you just buy another strategic cruiser or navy ship ( winks at @DrysonBennington)?
I am unsure why everyone assumes a Credit card is used for this. I imagine most people are using Debit cards. Paying 24% interest on PLEX is probably not the most astute financial transaction to be fair.
In any case, there are things money can’t buy, like manufacturing jobs and the completion thereof. Also rare BPs, which can only be found or stolen (if they’re on contracts, they’re not rare!)
