The real money's in powertrading.
My advice to you is to invest in a Samura ID and run Niobium Ore to New Berlin. I'll warm up an IMG Annapurna and fill you.
(and if JM comes a-knocking... I'll have a little fun. Heh heh heh.)
I'll front you 170 million to do it.
If you take me up on it, you'll want to make a new character and
Code:
/restart kucorpsamura
and head to either Yukawa or Junyo.
PM me for details.
Feel free to check out the Beginner's Guide, it has some general tips on how to get started back up. Might also want to look into using Freelancer Companion to find some good trade routes on your own. Also, don't listen to Scourge... Cardi/Beaumont smuggling is not the best way to start out even if it can be fun once you got started out.
