I know this sounds really noobish but I want to make some money and I'm really sick of missioning. Is there any other way of getting rich fast.

Short answer.... no. Work your azz off for several weeks and get a decent stake. Invest / use it wisely and you will never have to worry about losing a ship in battle ever again. Nor will you have to run missions, rat, etc ever again. Taikun |

yup its all about hard graft.
work hard and earn good isk for (insert time here) id recommend a year if your gonna stick at the game, but a few months at least, invest the money in things like moons, BPOS things where its easier to passivly make isk and you can do alot without having to worry about money. |

Or just move all isk you obtain for 3 months into various bonds and shares that look consistent and you feel comfortable in. Then, with every dividend for the first few months reinvest the stocks. Also put some personal funds in every few days. This was where I started about a year ago and now have a good 15b worth of shares. I net approximately 900m-1.2b per month in dividends. Very nice for a PvP'r but in my case I just keep reinvesting all recieved dividends. Sure, I could work my ass off and earn far more, but I don't want to feel the need to run a few missions to get myself some isk when times are quiet. Plus I would blow that 15b on a whole pile of crap (Gist fitted ships etc) that would never meet a 100% ROI. That, is far more guaranteed than almost all IPO's in existence right now. |

If you want to be rich, run a lot of missions and use a lot of different ships and weapons. Also, bring whatever you're selling to a trade hub and sell it to the buy orders there. And whenever you need to buy something, don't put up a buy order, just buy it directly off a sell order, you save lots of time that way. |

Make a mission running corp, set tax to 20% and start recruiting people. |

And this is the recipe for disaster but hey... me and Gal are opposites. He sounds nice and gives nasty advice while I... |

To get rich fast you can do the following in this game: sell game time codes, trade, scam. With trade you need some kind of starting capital and it takes time to learn the ins and outs and find a niche. With scamming no starting capital is needed but you must be good at social engineering and be creative at it. Also killing an officer spawn with some nice loot, but the time you'll spend searching for it won't make it quick.

Yeah, trading in and of it self is a profession unto itself that takes a lot of time to learn and I wouldn't expect anyone to help you as you're potential competition then. Took me a few months to figure out how everything works and I still don't really know crap.
The investment route can pay off big-time but you need money to make money. |

train/buy a character with PE5 and build stuff. much less work than mission running and much better profit than investing in someone else, assuming you're good enough to figure out what/where to build and sell. |

Investing always works. Nothing is more fun than investing leaving the game for a week and coming back to more ISK. I run great trade routes and I guarantee 50% return within 1 week. Read my bio for more info. |
