Money Baby show me what you got!

I wish I could ask more questions about how long it took to acquire that amount.

Well, Vlko said part of it here, that a lot of people just don't frigging learn...

i wouldnt say it is hard. people are just lazy to trade. when you need to make a hundred million, you go and fly around for 3 hours and dont meet pirates at all. unless of course you use all the spammed lanes. people seem to fail to see, that the promise of quick profit (lanes) is the ultimate downfall of their income. slowly, but surely applies here. i barely meet a pirate when i trade.

As far as real world time is concerned... you just have to simply have the patience to sit down and trade for a day. The old trade route from 4.84 that I used to use was engine components from The Ring to New London, then bring something or other back, took about 30 minutes round trip, and with a 5K ship made about 60 million per hour. Once 4.85 came out, I switched my route just a little - so hitting The Ring, Kennsington, up to Leeds via Sheffield JH, back down to Hamburg, and then to The Ring. Total trip time now is about 45-50 minutes for a circle, depending upon how many times NPC's disrupt me, and I make about 60 mil with a Shire.

The key thing is that none of us are casual players. We're the players that, when we get on and there's nothing else to do, can whip out our trader and let him go - and if we start a new ship, we don't really need the map, because we already have most of the systems memorized such that we can click on a spot to get to the jump hole - and when we get there, we're within 200 meters....

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.
