Tax, at a guess.

That would mean the corp would have earned 200bil in bounties or so.

QFT

also panhdah is Kill On Sight. He stole from us. I was happy to give it to him but he's and ungrateful little punk. What did he stole? Knowledge, that's what. 25mil to Whoever posts a real killmail with kizu dying. +5mil if you do it with a salvager fitted +5 mil if he has salvage loot on his cargo-hold.

Oh yeah that one. I think I fell asleep somewhere and/or had to log and was heading...somewhere? Don't worry, if I don't get a target to suicide gank soon, I'll just find one of the newer player's salvage boats and explode them. It'll be wonderful. Best of all, no KM generated for you, sup.

Edit: All that knowledge was common sense. I need motbob's wisdom IMO. This JP Bear guy doesn't cut it. (Remember that trade route? Yeah, I went there)

Edit 2: 35 mil to Gordon IMO, that was loot in my cargohold I "salvaged" from some wreck somewhere. (I probably jettisoned the metal scraps or something)

I maintain a strict separation between the investment wallet (worth roughly 9b, mainly your legacy) and the day to day expenses wallet. Taxes go into the day to day one and bills, reimbursement, hangar seeding, tournament prizes etc come out of it. I set taxes at a level so that the day to day wallet remains stable and fairly low. The members have been making so much isk recently I've actually had to set tax at 3%. The corp as an institution does not make a profit from taxes and I don't see why it should, everything I take I give back. However if I were to total up the assets we have including the stuff in null we're around 15 I believe, 16 if you include the 1b revo "owes" us for the alliance. If I wanted to raise a corp fund for investment what I would not do is take isk from people by tax and use that, instead I'd let people keep their isk by low tax and then send out a corp mail asking people if they wanted to buy shares in an investment fund, again it's all about accountability and recognising the corp is made up of people.

What I have been doing is loaning out the investment wallet (mainly to myself) and doing things like setting up scams with it. It's been slowly growing over time. However most of the isk for a 20b blueprint would come from private investments from corp members. I make roughly 1.5b a week from missioning and I am by no means the only missioner.

Also we've always had a typo in the corp description. It's like a sig at this point.

So I'm not the only one who gives a "revo" disclosure when I talk about my Eve finances...

If I may make a suggestion: http://www.wikinvest.com/wiki/Write-off

I really like the recurring popcorn theme in his lyrics. Also, you have nice look!

Revo probably owes all of eve isk. He's like a dense set.

@ those patchnotes, I hardly think it fixes the issue with large blasters, seriously I was hoping they would fix it.

But the buff to quake is pretty cool.

O.o .> In addition, all faction and special release ships have been added to the market so you can now trade them there in addition to contracts.

I wonder if this will normalize and lead to cheaper faction ships.

Also the fix to blobfest fleets will maybe make shitfests more tolerable (maybe lol).

Nerf to supercarriers, but was anyone complaining about their damage to sub caps. x.x;;

I wonder how big the Rocket changes are.
Maybe Rocket Hawks and Vengeances will see the light of day once again.

Blasters need a straight up damage and tracking boost to be worth going into scram range for.
Especially on large blasters that just cant seem to hit anything.
