==== So getting resources yourself is not for you, but how about [[Hauling|hauling]] things for others and making ISK that way? ====

Initial investment: 10M for a decently fitted Tech 1 Industrial ship in addition to whatever amount of ISK you're willing to pay as collateral.

===== Pros: =====

Line 129:

* Public contracts will require high sums of collateral to be paid if you lose the cargo. You need to be able to have that amound liquid.

* Inexperienced haulers are very easy to [[Scams in EVE Online|scam]] - people will take advantage of that.

==== Doing things oneself may be fun, but you want to make ISK while sleeping? How about [[Planetary Industry]]? ====

Initial investment: About 5M for the skillbooks, about 5M per colony you set up.

===== Pros: =====

* Entirely passive income. You set it up once, you manage it and your planets generate resources over time.

* Scales with the amount of time and effort you put in.

* Materials can either be sold to E-UNI buyback, to other players or used in Industry for yourself.

* Each character on an account can be trained for Planetary Industry and generate passive income even when not actively in use.

===== Cons: =====

* To be really profitable it needs to be done in nullsec space, otherwise you will make - even for a player just starting out - negligible amounts of ISK/h.

* Alpha accounts are incapable of doing Planetary Industry in any profitable way.

* Even though the resources are generated passively, you still need to get them from the planet to a station and then sell it.

* Skills used in Planetary Industry are used '''only''' in Planetary Industry.

* The interface is not user-friendly which may be an issue for some.
