It's official. I'm a Billionaire

[Shiro Akai]

What a great birthday. Earned my first Billion Credits.

And since it's my birthday I got myself a present. I bought brand new Mamba.
Apologies if I won't reply to any messages - I'm going celebrating. My birthday. First Billion. And new Mamba.

Congrats Commander!

You have way more restraint than I do....when I hit my first billion I bought so many ships that I was back down under 100k... Haven't been back to a billion in the bank since (though I do have 2.something billion in assets).

Let us know how you like the Mamba. I've considered buying one even though I already have several "better" combat ships, just because they look fun to fly.

Ah, remember the days when just earning enough to jump from a Sidey to a Cobra was cause for celebration?

Pepperidge Farms remembers.....

Happy Birthday.

Sadly, you are the only person playing ED who was not a Billionaire already.

And your secret to your success is...?

 

[Vandaahl]

Congratz OP, have a good one

And your secret to your success is...?

Prolly 45 minutes of void opal mining

 

[RELSPI]

I'm still nowhere near a billionaire, and I do all the credit grinds and exploits.
I'm just that impatient.

 

[CMDR Cknarf]

Fantastic!

Now its time to it away learning PvP.

It's a good time, I promise.

Congrats Cmdr, and happy celebrations. I want you drunkby midnight, challenging everyone and anyone (ok not NPCs) to a speed docking competition!

That should reduce that there balance a bit.

I remember the joy when I could finally afford an Advanced Discovery Scanner. No more trying to eye-ball bodies further than 500Ls away!!

I had to sell my kidney for an 6A fuel scoop back then...

 

[ElectricFactory]

Congrats OP! I hit 1.1B cr's a couple of days ago and still consider myself noobish; still climbing the steep learning curve weeks/ months into the game. And haven't come close to experincing all of the various activities- mining, passenger running etc.
OP have you done the Guardian FSD upgrade yet ? That's next on my to-do list.

Nowadays earning billion is pretty easy as soon as you can get decent mining rig just get to void opal business and soon visits to some nice rings are like visits to your own money printing machine. Earlier on you needed to hunt for hints of soon to be closed lucrative businesses, like certain passanger runs and so on.

Mining, void opals, alexandrite and so on. Go for deep core mining....

I made roughly half a billion the other day doing core mining. Go for void opals, but also crack anything else than Bromelite. That's the best way of increasing CR/hour.

 

[TiberiusDuval]

I earned my first billion with hard way, second one was easy way, mostly with deep core mining

Congtrats on the birthday and congrats on the Mamba. Great spaceship! Dirty drags (as always) help a lot on the handling.
