As i mentioned before, the price / share is not the default of the share price any more. In my last statement i said i accept no more isk. Today i have decided that i'll open that oppertunity up again BUT at a 50% markup of the share price in the last financial report.
The last 3 weeks or so have been very confronting and stimulating (pick your synonym).
Basicly i have lost been very sloppy on my accounting for the entire run of the HillAnt corp up to 2-3 days ago. As a result i lost track of about 700m of isk in assets i can't find anywhere any more. in corp assets? no. in deliveries? nay. Where did it go? It seems that when i went on a cleaning spree (cleaning up a lot of little things across that add up to a lot in the eve universe). I have looked through my transaction / journal / contract logs and every financial move i made since the start of the month is accounted for. That left me with the assets i had listed in my last financial report. From the looks of it i mindlesly trashed too much of it. I can't find the logs for it.
(I had decided to clean up because there was a huge and incomprehensible asset list i had built up doing almost everything imagineable that a low sp character can do)
It has been nagging and bothering me for the greater part of the month to do my accounting / auditing and for the last 2 days it has been bothering me that i lost track of almost a billion. I knew i could just buy 2 plexes to fix it but it didnt feel right to do it yesterday morning because i didn't know what happened. I am still not exactly sure what exactly happened.
This morning i felt i knew and learned enough to quickfix the result of my mistakes by coming up with the difference with 2 plexes. I thought of doing so yesterday but it didnt feel right until i had digged through my logs.
Because of the above i had been offline more in hiding afraid to look at the mess i had made.
HillAnt corp's asset list and excel sheet is now much cleaner and comprehensible to me. I have also upgraded my system which allows me to much more efficiently interact in the eve universe and to make quality fraps movies / screenshots when i choose to with ease.
Now that i feel i have this over with i move on to more with a much greater sense of freedom and confidence.
Other things have been going on that altough have a great impact on me, i am not sure i can explain in such detail which will result a comprehensive let alone understandable or culturally palatable set of words that will help everyone immerse themselves deep enough into kiddy pool part of my thinking processes.
As you may have noticed i havent posted any financial reports... for a realtively long time.
There was an new investor on the block who came to me to invest another 800m.
henceforth i will not be accepting any more ISK type of investments. Based on my experience with the last two months now considder them an insult to my intelligence.
So please:
NO MORE ISK, I WILL ONLY ACCEPT OTHER KINDS OF TRADES
CORPORATE THEFT
A old member which i naively trusted to watch over the corporation while i was gone for half a week turned out to be an isk worshipper and he took the 375m ISK which i alotted to two members (by putting it into a seperate corporation wallet and giving two people acces)
When you want to add this thief to your hunted list to help teach him a lesson, eve mail me (HillAnt) with details
EDIT: I made a mistake and wrongly accused above (in grey) of stealing. He did not steal at all, he simply got bored and returned his own investment to himself and returned the corporation shares that he originally bought. Props to Shadow Snip for the professional attitude!
I have been gathering a lot of mass (STUDYING) the last couple of weeks, most of which i will not mention to you i will not give out for free, because it is PRICELESS. This also means i did NOT make very short term profits.
Nevertheless i do have a few (by my standards relatively) long going operations running that will make some profit. The product of said operations is presently being sold for ISK with which i can finally responsibly make the first dividend payment since weeks.
The sharp increase in darthfish share ownership and decrease of mine is because of the earlier way i changed my accounting methods. Because my change of accounting dropped share price for no in game reason i compensated the difference by giving a portion of my own shares.
The sharp increase in asset value compared to comparetively low profit is due to the value of stockpiled ores and minerals that haven't sold yet.
The previously non-disclosed shares are owned by the oppertunist. He had a spy in the corp earlier and bought a few shares. That old war is now already over by the way.
things started slow today, but by the end of the day i got a wormhole operation going using 25 million isk worth of collateral to collect atleast 101 million ISK worth of goodies in under 6 hours.
sleep first,
My personal base of operations has moved over to a low/high sec region with a couple of highsec islands. Buying the minerals and ores below trade hub value. Its a slow process, but it is very reliable. I am experimenting with other things, but those things are experiments which can go any way, altough they are based on a very good first attempt.
14 days okay i took on a 500m investment (that i signified as a 500m liability in the balance sheet) with the promise to pay back 750m today plus 25% of the profit i make on top (14 days later, today).
I did not make enough profit on the investment and but i did pay back the 500m and the additional 250m.
In addition i will revamp the way in which i valuable the corporate assets. They will be valued at the price which it cost me to obtain the items. In the past i put them at the value at which i think i would sell them and while that was somewhat accurate, no longers seems appropiate considdering markets can change as quick as they can. Shares will be available again after i post a financial update (probably in the next 18 hours).
I expected to get profits from one person i invested in previously, that is now largely inactive in addition to one product which was profitable because of the patch (which is now down to production cost). I got stuck in my old ways and i hate it. I flinched and panicked a little and today was a confrontation for me because i did not make the profit i promised or expected because of my mistakes.
And now i need my sleep
goodnight
looking at it, it takes me about 1.5 hour to do a proper financial report for a 3 day period
i can do it faster, i do better every day.
The drop in asset value is because i changed the value listings of the products. Im pondering about setting every asset that i manufacture to the value of the things that it took me to obtain those items instead of setting them at the price i think ill sell them at at least. Even if i dont, the prices of all the products are presently very low.
set up my manufacturing lines again and put up sale orders, though the 0.01ISK warriors are up so sales are a little slower and so im not making up a complete report yet as i dont feel there have been significant changes
For the last 4 days i have been easing or slacking as it is called in honesty. I will continue to I have focussed intensely on missioning for the purpose of obtaining perfect refining in the region i focus on and on the side reading up on PvP related information, fittings and many things that dont have either the market window, the transaction log or the eve online market discussion OR the sale order discussion boards as their primary interface. I have underestimated the time it takes to get refining character skills up alongside standings and have been moving back to market PvP and what not today and reaximing my aproach to an experiment i have been working on which in the least caused me to curtail my time on the market and shrink profits.
Nevertheless i did learn a whole lot more about the eve universe and also many things that will allow me to interact and investigate its regions with greater efficiency. Getting more used to the hotkeys i set up and several map related functions as well as the ombey maps i referred to earlier. I am growing accustomed to some things that used to be overwhelming to me a week ago.
Sleep sound and well
started exploring the buying and selling high market today. Putting up relatively low buy orders across the market and and re selling high. Shipping from outside the trading hubs region cheap made in china goods and shipping them back for cheap experiments. I feel i need to do something i used to do which was tracking down other trading people and talking to them. I dont like my margin a lot.
Collected some data today
made some more sound trades. one investment oppertunity is slow to respond to my offer which ties up my hands a bit. RL had me distracted for 6 straight hours today. Be running a few experiments tomorrow.
But not tonight...
sleep first.
You can see the finance report its format has been slightly changed. (For intent of clarity)
A new investor popped up who bought 600.6m worth of new shares.
I added a few information boxes i can fill in. Corp reserve stands for the share reserve the corporation has and is not counted in total. Virtual total is the total plus the reserve shares and virtual dividend is what i have to fill in in the eve dividend box in order to pay everyone the amount listed under dividends. The difference between virtual dividend and real dividend then automaticly returns to the corporation.
I found a few contact in whom i will probably invest to all our benefit.
In the last 2 days i made one mistake which cost about 50m worth of profit which shows painfully compared to the rest of the time.
basicly i have been very busy today but mostly in RL (moms birthday). Two people joined the corp. Atleast one which requires my attention for a few days. Because i had little time i also will not post a finance report or do all the accounting that goes along with it. Today will be included in tomorrows finance report alongside dividends.
Today everything appeared to run very neutral and flat for as far as profit was concerned. Tough a small profit was gained over time. In the end one of my experiments dropped me 85 million ISK worth of profitin my lap. For convenience i had added the 500m investment into the financial reports as a 500m liability and ofcourse i add up all the assets that i have obtained with this investment.

Report for today,
Someone made a 500m investment. Im not counting it as an asset and i will only reflect the corporate profit from it (as defined by the terms of the investment) in the asset total. I wont divulge any more detail until the terms of this investment are complete.
sleep well
Yesterday i had been negotiating with the war deccing oppertunists i mentioned. They are part of an ongoing experiment i will write more about right now. Though i will not say enough so that they stay in the dark so that the experiment may continue on the track i have planned for it.
Enjoy the reading:
Originally it was my intention to reconcile our differences and i thought i had it all done until the other party suddenly decided to nitpick at the semantic differences in the words i chose to use in our communications. I had hired someone to declare war on them and i said i hired AAA and they said you hired BBB, you lied you lied to the wrong person, i quote:
(names have been changed)
The Oppertunist > hillant hillant hillant
The Oppertunist > i tryed to help u
The Oppertunist > u lied to me
HillAnt > about what
The Oppertunist > BBB was sent by u
The Oppertunist > u could of got a beter corp than that
...
(ranting about how little power and wisdom he has gained in 4 years of playing EVE)
...
HillAnt > i didnt know his corp was BBB i didnt pay attention to that
HillAnt > im sorry i was naive enough not to pay any attention to a 10 mil wardec which still is barely anything to me
...
The Oppertunist > whats going to happen is im gonna destroy them
The Oppertunist > they will run away
The Oppertunist > u will be hunted forever
HillAnt > okay good on them
...
HillAnt > did i say to you i didnt hire ammo inc? i only said i hired AAA (AAA is the CEO of BBB which i did not care to look up until oppertunist pointed it out to me)
...
The Oppertunist > im gonna have make this game suck for u
The Oppertunist > i asked did u hire ammo inc
The Oppertunist > u sed AAsomthing
The Oppertunist > i asked
The Oppertunist > so u didnt send BBB
The Oppertunist > u sed nope
The Oppertunist > u lied
(me trying to defend myself to someone who shut his ears)
(more ranting about his epeen)
HillAnt > you are too closed
HillAnt > sorry man that it turned out this way
The Oppertunist > BBB will be fun and would of been np but u could of told me
HillAnt > but im not taking your bullshit you aint listening to me
The Oppertunist > i tryed to help u out
HillAnt > I DIDNT PAY ATTENTION I DIDNT KNOW I SAID I DIDNT KNOW
(i got a little emotional because of the crap he was dropping on me)
i closed the private window and waited 12 hours to re-open communications
i had prepared a little letter in advance.
HillAnt > I will apreciate if you look at my letter (insert hyperlink to imageshack picture that i have deleted by now)
HillAnt > a little too big too copy paste
The Oppertunist > it says hack us in the link
The Oppertunist > i dont think so
HillAnt > will you allow me to defend myself?
The Oppertunist > what do u mean defend your self
HillAnt > you made accusations against me judged me and come pretty close to convict me without giving me any chance to defend myself
The Oppertunist > u missed out hunt and exsicute u ill be doing that alot more often
HillAnt > Well you are very certain of your case then. If i give you 100m ISK to hold on to and you agree to give it back if i convince you will you then atleast seriously considder my case?
The Oppertunist > and if u dont convince me ill keep the 100 m isk u know that right
HillAnt > i have 60m in pocket and a bunch of ### worth a lot more you can hold on to but i need to figure out how to present it because the thing is one page long
The Oppertunist > well i dont click ingame links ever
HillAnt > thats good il put it in 2-3 parts through game mail text only
The Oppertunist > ok
HillAnt > have about 1 mil nocxium and 460K isogen that should be enough
HillAnt > through private contract to you
The Oppertunist > ok
HillAnt > recceived letter part 1 and 2?
The Oppertunist > reading em
The Oppertunist > is there a part 3?
HillAnt > that depends on what part 2 ends withif it is Be well, Hillant then no
The Oppertunist > its be well hillant yes
The Oppertunist > give me a sec
HillAnt > you can find your own chatlogs if you dont trust mine
The Oppertunist > i will get back to u
The Oppertunist > im looking for some something
The Oppertunist > ill call u in ten mins
The letter i game mailed to him:
Hey ###,
You accused me of lying and I object to that. Yesterday you accused and judged (and pretty close to convicting) me very quickly and didn’t listen to anything I had to say in my defense. Please do now.
The Oppertunist > omicron?
The Oppertunist > not ammo inc then?
HillAnt > lemme look it up
HillAnt > OmitryEKT
HillAnt > he didnt wardec you? <-- I said he which indicates a character not a genderless corp
The Oppertunist > nope never herd of em
HillAnt > then i am clueless
The Oppertunist > ahh well
HillAnt > H was gonna wardec me again now or no?
The Oppertunist > ok then fly safe :P
The Oppertunist > hillant hillant hillant
The Oppertunist > i tried to help u
The Oppertunist > u lied to me
HillAnt > about what
The Oppertunist > ammo inc was sent by u
I assume you thought i was talking about a corp? I was talking about the character which is the CEO of Ammo Inc which i did not know as i did not care to figure that out before you accused me of lieing.
I found OmitryEKT in the CEO channel.
The Oppertunist > so u didnt send ammo inc
The Oppertunist > u sed nope
i said i was clueless which i was
You say i lied about sending ammo inc but what i said about sending me hiring mercs was only truth.
HillAnt > lemme look it up
HillAnt > OmitryEKT
HillAnt > he didnt wardec you?
The Oppertunist > nope never herd of em
HillAnt > then i am clueless
I gave you the name of the CEO of ammo inc. I assumed you would look up his corp and see for yourself wether the wardeccer was mine.
I spoke only truth in everything in which you accused me of lying
I am sorry that my indifference and carelessness has caused this confusion i now pay a lot more attention.
Please be more considerate in the future and don’t insult people by accusing, judging and convicting people in 5 minutes worth of thought and not allowing people to defend themselves. That kind of thing fits Jehovah’s Witnesses only.
I am still new to many aspects of the game and don’t know all the etiquette and jargon used to communicate about all the common EVE events and know very little about pvp.
Be well, Hillant
His response:
"That kind of thing fits Jehovah’s Witnesses only." a person in our circel of freinds is a jehovah witnesses #### best freind i didnt know myself :P. but hes taken offence to this the war will keep going sorry at least untill ammo inc are wiped out and even for a long time. as for your lyeing argument. leiing might be a strong word (can you say that louder??) i see what u ment now but still u missled me im keeping the minerals for now.
so basicly they decided to nitpick at one thing i said to give them an excuse to continue their childish attitude toward me. It shows a lot about who they are which is they want to find any excuse to hurt people and this jehovahs witness friend of his certainly is not a proper jehovahs witness because jehovahs witness are not so easily insulted and if they were they would be excommunicated. I have known jehovahs witness members for 1 year and my experience with them makes it clear to me this friend of theirs is either not a jehovahs witness or does not want to be a jehovahs witness by the watchtower its definition but is scared silly of loosing his/her family. Naturally this causes a strong internal conflict he apparantly does not want to face let me quote (from this witness): "hi there, in 48 hours i will destroy u, just letting u know". On the other hand they may just be playing mind games with me . I said that in a very decent way that i could say a lot more strongly as you can quess.
I felt they weren't interested in any form of justice and only in the low life form basic sort of nonsense that complacant and decent old people concede to on a nit to nit basis. Really there is nothing wrong with that, every self respecting politician will tell you that we need to respect cultural diversity.
The minerals i gave oppertunist as collateral to listen to me i estimate were worth about 135m, 4 jumps away from a trading hub. In the beginnings of my negotations with Oppertunist i gave up my pod so that he could show me biomass to his mom (who didn't know this was pre arranged) so they who would then stop moaning and stop their silly war against me (until Oppertunist decided to nitpick me with semantics).
They cost me some dead weight in my corporation and for that i thank thee great Oppertunist.
Their predictable behaviour gives me a lot of control.
Honest, sincere, humble, gracious, happy, balanced, holy, generous, etc etc etc
This entire post also shows a lot about who i am.
If you want to join this experiment be quick to leave me a mail, a game mail, a convo, a message in the eve online channel "HillAnt" or a remark on this blog and i might talk to you in more detail.
the balance statement remains the same at at most 1% lower then it shows in the halfway statement below.
It remains at 1% because mostly thanks to my distraction with:
1 - a wardecleration i mentioned earlier and negotiations with said wardeccers
2a-the absense of a client (see below)
2b-the tieing up of cash into the obtainment of affordable ammo to deliver to 2a client.
3- exploring the named module market and item exchanges and making a few purchases that were way below market.
4- reading forum threads
Today was very educational again. That wardec i talked about is from a group of 4 highsec oppertunists wardeccing a few enemies, carebear, trader/industrial corporations in the Jita area and region. I negotiated a lot with one of their members and that will continue tomorrow. Ill talk about that in detail if they agree to let me.
I was expecting to meet one of the members of the corporation that is ordering "huge quantities of dreadnought ammo". However, the lack of online activity of any representatives or other people of their corp that i could find ment that i had no succes contacting them about the specifics of their order. If none appear within 24 hours, ill look for other lowsec / 0.0 buyers for the inventory that i have set up to deliver to them.
A new investor popped up offering me to manage some isk for him with some demands attached and has left me to think about it until tomorrow when i will probably continue my negotations with the highsec oppertunists i mentioned above. If those negotiations go bad, that new investor offers to help me with that.
But my mind remains too distracted from the war dec and the negotiating. It was very educational but it ended up costing me a lot of energy.
Yesterday i said i didnt trust my numbers, so... after starting the manufacturing on all the stuff one of my clients was ordering i looked at all assets and this is what results. a net worth of about 1 Billion (including stuff being manufacturd, personal assets, corporate). Made the sheet a little more tidy and added a box that calculates how many shares my salary+dividend is worth every day to make things easier on me.
There havent been so many sales yet except for a few experiments that i am bailing out of at no significant profit.
It seems all went well today. I just cant trust my numbers or am just a little baffled. will doublecheck the net value of my corp tomorrow.
5 days ago i made a 240m ISK investment and today it paid off at 106m profit. Pending a response to that investment about a new inestment of atleast 240m again we will see what happens. We'r on nice cozy standing and chat regularly.
On the other side i ventured into 0.0 sec to sell a few small but expensive products at 100% markup. Relax now, they are just sell orders in a 0.0 system with some activity in local when i was there and they havent sold yet, but its an experiment.
Today that frigate that delivered that experiment got killed and my pod too which lost me about 50m worth in implants, this time im sitting around with 6m implants. Some of the old products that were selling have tanked and i am glad to report i am no longer in that market that is now much more painfully competitive. (probably thanks to my participation in it :)).
I met a potential customer who has ordered "huge quantities of dreadnought ammo" some place in 0.0 sec.
O and on a side note HillAnt has been wardecced. Though i will be hard pushed to notice because 99% of what i do is sit in Jita and do all my things from there. Two new player members who shall we say were taking a more in the field aproach did not apreciate so much and left the corp. We'r in good standing, they just didnt like the war dec.
They'r demanding, 150m. Yea right, i havent even taken 15m damages not even in lost production. (they started fighting me this morning)
so that means... the spirit of the dream realm is calling for me to organize a strategic reorganization after which i will stage more HillAnt ventures and adventures.
stay tuned, keep happy
be well
Today was pretty silent activity wise
i did stay logged in all day but i studied a lot and communicated with players
you make like this one, i surely do
http://www.ombeve.co.uk/Eve_Regions.pdf
If you are a sophisticated trader check out the market discussions sub section its a great place.
A little bit of profit was made just not a lot.
Someone upped the price of my major product to a 350% markup and bought out my overnight inventory in the process. I lowered my price to 250% when i woke up and sold nicely to the same person again. It seems that person has learned not to do it again because everyone is trying to get a piece of the action. I have gone back to some older products i feel have a better audiance that will respond to my offering delivery services of this older product. The same product that got me my first 75m contract on this account.
Today i was spending a lot of time reading up and learning about excell. I was expanding on my product manufacturing line spreadsheet again. Learned a few things about it.
My sole product that i did produce today is dropping in price to where profit margins are beginning to make their point. I feel i have stuck with this product too long. No more of this particular product anymore. It has dropped 25% in value. Someone else was bidding against me and i bought it at 25% below at what i am selling it at now which is still 25% lower then yDay. I have sent many mails about delivering this product but it seems the customer base is tooo mobile to want delivery because i am not getting any replies to any of my offers. There may be other reasons and i am not aware of.
I will conduct some experiments tomorrow.
this morning i obtained and sold two PLEX cards and reinvested the 600m in the corporation because i was negotiating with a potential director (he probably doesnt know yet that i have that in mind) about investing 240m in him and him returning the investment in 5 days with 50% of the profit he makes with it. I feel he will be much more friendly to future communications. I will talk more about that probably on monday when he will pay up.
Business tonight appears to be going very very good. I am making a product with a market that is worth 200+ million ISK profit in The Forge region.
Today was nice. Lots of research done. Spreadsheet upgraded to a new level. Products manufactured worth a total of about 120m at least. probably made about 15m profit. Too little umpf to do anything else.
Much to tell little umpf though
goodnight
(i whited out a few details so it isnt obvious what this one report is about. Click the image for detail)
The above is my spreadsheet with which i will henceforth analyze the market.
today im not making a finance report i estimate the profits are about0 because i have made very little effort in the ways of making any money.
it was a long day of setting up plans and doing experiments and doing research on business oppertunities. I have found one investment oppertunity along the way. but enough talk
sleep well all
First half of today i have focussed on exploring the profitability of finding customers for my product base by selling on the open market below market price with marginal profit margins and communicating with the purchasers to see how i can be of service. The products i could sell for quick buck were less reliable today. I didnt feel like doing the old thing by then and then a potential Chief Officer pops up and impresses me a little and i will decide wether he is a candidate for taking over the responsebility for the manufacturing and developing of HillAnt corp product lines.
After that person submitted his application for membership in the corp i came up with the idea described in the HillAnt master riddle. I will invest a lot of effort into that tomorrow.
A portion of tomorrow i will invest into small 2m ISK or alike investments like the one below with different types of agreements.
example of an investment
the above is 15 minutes worth of effort.
I spy with my little eye
I have a vision which will be my next big picture venture.
Ill give you a riddle to help you figure it out. When you figure it out first you will become be offered the position of director of HillAnt corp (5% of profit/w salary), receive 35% of HillAnts character its shares in HillAnt and will then become a significant part of the idea...
Let me make it a agreement with the general public:
New shares have been issued. The CEO salary and dividend are mostly cosmetic, only the new shareholders dividend has left a record of 4.5m. I reinvest my dividends and will move 290 shares to my personal character to reflect this time more officially becaise i have a shareholder now. By popular vote the issuing of 560 new shares will officiallize it. 190 Nif, 290 to me and the rest stays in the corp and is not counted in my accounting.
I invested most of the 40m profit mentioned below on a slightly product with potential for massive growth. Altough its manufacture gives me logistic trouble. I quess my new found newbie recruiting skills will come in handy to find some haulers.
Today i also invested a lot of time in one of the new players. Someone who came fresh off... i dont know. Barely a day old into the game. Spent atleast half the day explaining the game to him in terms of manufacturing, return on investment and all sorts of stuff... invested 1.2 mil in cash. Any other investment will require some proof in the pudding so to speak. The 1st new player in the corp logged in a little bit. using surplus BPCs that i wouldnt know how to use. I rented an office at 3m / month. I started to make a product that gives negligable markup on the open market and i will use the data that the transactions provide to open communication channels with potential clients and contacts that will pay a markup not found in the open market for delivery services. In this same manner did i get my contact with the 60m profit deal that basicly put Hillant corp net value 200% up in one deal.
The first step as a new player and prospective HillAnt corp member is to make your way to the corporations HQ and fill in an application.
If you have no familiarity with navigation and have trouble with jumping more then 2 jumps in less then 80 seconds in your newbie frigate then read this.
Where ever you are get out into space preferably in your starter frigate or preferred ship of choice. Go to the top left of the screen scroll down to people & places click it and in the scroll down box next to the search fill in box look up solar system. Then fill in ohmahailen in the destination. Click search. Find ohmahailen in the now apparant list and right click it then click set destination.
close the people & places window and go to the overview screen to your top right (expand it if it is not) and you will see a list of stuff. probably stations, stargates and player ships. At the left of the list are the icons. Find the listing of the stargate with a yellow icon. Right click it and click jump to within 0m. Wait until your ship warps over. Then right click it again and click jump. Then repeat and repeat until you are in Ohmahailen.
In Ohamhailen right click in empty space and go to the station menu. Look up ohmahailen V - Moon 6 - . Jump to 0m and dock. To the bottom right are corporation details. Click the headquarter button and look up HillAnt corp in the long long list and select it and find the apply / join button. After that the CEO or a recruitment officer must accept the application.
one invester put in 15m
i finalized a contract, 20m investment from me 75m return in one day.
Yesterday i invited a 7 day old character who turns out to be a miner with industrial skills. Hurray.
Ill be using my 4 factory slots to produce product worth 7m profit. Otherwise i am coming up with new business oppertunities. Speaking of which, i need a slick presentation form to put them in with bells, whistles, birds, trees, dwarfs, fairies, unicorns, rainbows...
woke up to a overnight purchase of 12 million of my product. I contacted one of the purchasers and i will suply my product at their next event for about 25m investment, 50m profit. The large Net Value of the HillAnt corp is because the factories will finish producing a net value of product (worth at least 60m) while i sleep.
One invester contacted me for an 15m investment but i delayed further communications
because i need my sleep. Give me dreamzzz... yummy
(click the picture for detail)
I have a BPO producing stuff for me, it seems i wont need a bpc because the market would become too satured and prices + profit margins would drop. I sold half the product of 1 days run of that bpo (worth 7-17 mil profit) into. Starting 12 hour production run for tomorrow. I reached level 2 production efficiency while writing this and it will be level 3 soon
while i sleep.
goodnight
For my exploring of the market in the Forge (and adjecent) regions i have made a spreadsheet (I use and create excell spreadsheets for many many things)
This spread sheet analyzes a particular market in a particular region and compares the cost of production compared to profit and the return on investment.
HillAnt Corp now 1 day fresh into space and he has now level 3 in all basic learning skills except perception, industry 3 and mass production 2, 4 +1 implants except perception, trade 2, corp management 2, and a bunch of other default ones.
So far i'v sold 2.8million in product and 2.3million of it is profit. 9000 units worth a total of 3-7 million profit rolled out of the factory. Will get to selling it in a jiffy. Ill be training the ethnic training so i can recruit all races; marketing and procurement trading skills so i dont have to move around much.
Im putting up a balance spreadsheet and income statement (when i log in after the patch) of quality compareable the manufacturing spreadsheet.
Ceo reporting:
I re-started my account yesterday. I forked over 16 million ISK for investment to my new main account and started the termination countdown on the old one which is now well done. My old account from 2 years ago was strongly focussed on what many players do which is everything at once right now like a headless chicken. I was forever ignorant of the market. I felt i needed a fresh start and no reminder of that past, AntSpice now lies where no star shines.
I have played several market simulation games (and other types of simulation games) the last months. Games including capitalism 2, cashflow 101 & 202, SimEarth, SimFarm (i was 5 yrs), RCT 1 2 3. (and many other games not related or remembered)
I feel the eve community & economy is the next logical step towards understanding and learning the force of the people and the market they build. I see it as an adventure to continue improving my ability to discern true value both in game and in real life.
Well, here goes:
I started out by getting used to the basic functions again and immediactly disco,- and rediscovering character skills, the new attribute remapping feature, the new skill training que system (!!!).
I got myself settled in again.
It is my intent to use my ship as little as possible. As the ceo i feel i need to learn to be lazy be delegating whatever i can to whoever can do and will do it. For this i use contracts at the time of this writing and writing to contractees for future interaction potential.
For direct corporation retalad detail (recruitment, investment, etc.) look up HillAnt Inc. in the eve-game.
It is my personal goal to attain a personal wealth of 1% of all the assets in the eve-online game, measured in ISK.
