Rest of November
I set myself a 10M isk/week target for November. I made the new wallet target of 110M on November 15, only halfway through the month. So I’m spending the remainder of the month trialling some things and missioning (to get my standings up with Fed Intel etc).
The other night though, I ran missions for the evening. Roughly 2M profit for the night. Then last night, scordite and plagioclase mining for an evening. Return was 7M profit.
Will, my CEO, suggested that skewed result was because my skills had tilted toward mining. So I’d make more profit going the way my skills dictated. But if I wanted to get out of that path, I should work more on skills related to other paths.
So missioning and cooperative work with the corporation will be my focus for the remainder of the month. And I’m going to increase my isk goal for December. Not sure if it should be 15 or 20M a week in December, or even if I’ll have as much pod-time then. We’ll see.

what level missions are you running, and are you looting and salvaging everything as well?

I am on the threshold of Level 3 missions. So I haven’t done any 3’s yet, just the better quality 2’s. The problem is that they take an entire evening when I have to jump out to repair constantly. I’ve recently started to read Eve-Survival to find advice on how to get through the missions more effectively, and that’s helped a little.
Oh, and yes, I do the looting and salvaging thing as much as possible, having just fitted out a destroyer with tractor beams and salvagers to make that part of the job more efficient.

Ok, once you get to level 3s and later level 4s you will find your income from missions very lucrative.
