An interesting thought experiment from r/Eve:

You wake up in 2006 with all your memories. What do you do in new Eden?

Take that T2 BPO as a loyalty reward from an agent instead of the faction ship.

No love for them Geckos? Though legend has it that they are sold for only one mil ISK in Jita local.
Im not sure when geckos came about I want to say they were after 2006 though, but technically thered be a lot of things you could make a bundle off of when it first came out in game knowing what I know now.
Honestly in some ways I wouldnt want to now either, as much fun as it is being rich, I dont think being insanely rich would mean much more and might make the game entirely unfun for me. I know that over the years playing I have purposefully not engaged in some things knowing theyd be extreme isk makers simply for that reason. It would spoil the joy of the game for me being too rich.
All my memories? Like, everything? ok forget EvE I’m going to go make millions upon millions irl, stock market, lottery, bit coin etc. here I come. 
ah but there could be a part 2 of the plan… make enough $$$ to buy CCP and then I own Eve! dun dun dunnnnnnn

Take a note to quit by 2008.
Not intending this as an attack or anything but it’s not like anyone points a gun to your head to force you to stay.
What I mean is if you don’t enjoy playing EVE and don’t see any improvement after trying other playstyles, why not consider trying other games or hobbies instead at least just to see if you can have (more) fun doing something else.
Free time is one of the most valuable resources a person has, it is an utter waste spending it on something that doesn’t bring you joy / fun (and not talking instant gratification here instead an overall value in general).
Well I would probably make it 2013 to see the height, the 2008 was based on a specific change I stumbled over recently.
I am keeping a gun to my head, there are a few things left undone.
I would not stop at the BP gas station to buy the cappuccino on May 27th, 2007. Other than that, not much at all.

Got hit by a car when 13 in 71. Would have bought Apple stock with the money in hindsight. Hindsight. Something we never have.
