Don't bother building anything big until you have Production Efficiency 5. Small stuff you can get away with lower skills. The real trick is the markets - getting hold of your raw materials cheaply and selling for a good profit whilst maintaining a decent cashflow. Market research is what takes the time and effort, the rest is easy.
Most people are unlikely to tell you what to build and where to sell it though, as it's taken them all that time and effort to work out for themselves

Like trading it's more practicality than selfishness - if you tell everyone your best buying and selling places/items the prices quickly change and make them all unprofitable.friznit wrote:Most people are unlikely to tell you what to build and where to sell it though, as it's taken them all that time and effort to work out for themselves

oh yer friz I paid out of my own isk to pay for 5 shares then i transfer it to 5punkorp.
Trade I think there some tools that made it alot easier to cross reference the regions and now i doing ok. I thought there alot of compaction in empire trade but i found some holes in the market because some of the tools. Its taken me 2 weeks to find some nice trade but some times its lack of time to keep on it.
Production well its ok but very slow and i find empire hard to sell. 0.0 has helped to sale faster but some region i been in where no war been little hard.
I slowly investing in bpo in some cruisers and some other ship. As i am in the US and not working I going to take this time ti read though invention and T2 production.
IPO i am writing up a business plan and a starchigy (Firefox sucks on spelling i cant find the fucking word :/) to sell more share to public.
I been on market discussion alot to see how it works and asked alot of Questions. I also seem to earn some sort of respect by speaking in there and asking questions. not like some people where to trade and where. I thought about bonds but i dont want a loan i like ot provide a service and i think the share (IPO) is a challage to keep the profits up much as possible.
I hoping after xmas i have more time as i asked less work to have more my self time. I have some member in corp and move to providence/catch and hang out there. I know not a great place but i think its a good start to get use to pos and stuff. I hope to mine then do production and maybe research. thats my long term goals anyhow.
Oh yer 5punkorp got 5 shares. It wasn't free as i paid it with pete isk but thats me donating it. I am still 5punk after all

Has anyone got intel on 'The state of BOB'? Just wondering, as I've been on rather less than planned this week, with my trip getting canceled and all at work. Instead of a 4-day trip this week, it's a 2.5 day trip next week through the throngs of civilian travelers, (my term for those that don't travel often enough to know the ins and outs of getting through the airport efficiently and whine when things don't go their way).
