I just want to get some things cleared, just so i know that i dont miss anything.
I sems to have problems making isk, or canŠt i make more consider my char age.
I am flying missions (lvl 2) I am mining in 0.2 space I am trying to do some trading (biggest profit 200k)
Is there anything els that i can do. I allready know about production and that is nothing fore me yet.
I have the skills fore a lot of things but i never get the isk fore it.
Any tips? Thanks

Missions CAN make you more then enough. BUT you need a few things.
train up empathy to 4. it'll help.
In the Social skill set get these skills Social Diplomacy negotiations criminal connections connections
and so on. You don't need all of these, but just some of them. Each of these help your faction standing with someone. lvl 2 missions are easily netting me 200K per mission(combat missions) most times, plus 2-8 times that in dropped loot/bounties and so on. this will vary from mission to mission, but it makes me more then a million an hour.
now.. If you are trying to make money for anything up to a battlecruiser, these should do you. But if you are trying to make your way to Battleships, you'll need to start doing lvl 3 missions. the difficulty jump from lvl 2 - lvl 3 quite a bit. You'll need a battlecruiser and skills, both charactor releated and real life.
keep trying. - -

What Fury said.
And level 3 missions were pretty easy for me when I was using a Prophecy with less than 100k gunnery skills, armor tanking good enough to only use active hardeners and T1 repairers, and no drone skills whatsoever.
Be sure to buy insurance and bring a friend the first few times until you have the confidence to solo. :p --------

Have you tried killing the NPCs in low sec and selling the loot? It can be done with a two frigs or a cruiser. Every once in awhile you get some really high ISK items.

If you need money now and are not just working your way up the mission levels, in my experience ratting in the belts is more lucrative than running missions.
I've spent some time running around 0.5 belts in a missile Kestrel. Zero danger, quick to pick up loot. You get some money in bounties, but the main source of income is named gear that drops with regularity. Hypnos ECM, Prototype Gauss Gun, and such -- they sell for millions. Your income stream will be a bit spiky since there's no guarantee that any fat loot will drop, but over time it works ou t very well.

1) One man corp - create it 2) Learn, master, and become a pvp "yoda"....or somethin like that..... 3) War dec rich mission running corp 4) Find out where they run missions with their expensive kitted Ravens 5) Kill said ravens. 6) Sell their gisti XL shieldboosters for teh phat lootz.

I made 100m in the first month by trading alone; I haven't done a single mission or mined since tutorial. Go to the trade forums, there's quite a few good guides (I recommend the one titled "Trading advice from a 3-week old player" or something like that). The first few million are difficult, but when you get in an indie the money just keeps pouring in.

or you could just get lucky... I made 55 million my 5th day playing by finding a tech 2 charisma implant on a lvl 1 pirate lol
most of my money I make mining large loads of ore into a jetcan then picking it up in my new badgermk2 then selling it. anywhere from 250-680isk a run in 0.6 space

Actually, Hamatitio's reply makes perfect sense. T2 Ship BPO is an excellent goal to work towards.
However, yours add little value to this thread except to insult and degrade good ideas.
If I can add a little suggestion to the OP, I would suggest a few neat ideas
1. Sell Isogen - this a hot seller - Mine Omber or Kernite 2. Check escrow - yes, it is hard to find values, but you would be surprised what someone will post late night /early morning 3. Rat in 0.5 systems and ask some of the miners if the want company. You could help clear the belts for them.
4. Jump into a low sec system with a friend and try your hand at PVP. People drop some nice things these days.
If you find someone who has good reprocess skills, you can recycle the loot for a little Zyd and Iso. Again, this will accumulate over time into a nice nest egg.
If you convo me in game, I can give you some more ideas.
But honestly, T2 BPO is a license to print money. So I would get yourself a Research Agent ASAP and start accruing your RP sooner than later.
Regards,

Behedwin,
It is true that trading is really hard. For one part, the learning curve in learning the market is really steep. When you get past that hurdle, you really are making money quite easily. Also trading require money lot of isks. So you have to save isks to make more isks. NPC hunting and the like can be profitable too but the real nice thing about trading is that you make money while u are not playing.
As regards for some tips, think about what people buy in your region (ships, fitting, ammo) and see how can u find or make the said good at a profit. Check the market tab for item of interest and see how price and volume fluctuate over time. If you are in need of more help on this matter, you can always convo me in game or join a thriving trading community at the "trader's lounge" in game.
Cheers and have a profitable time. ---------
Sadly I just make ISK, I don't print it. :(
