It's been getting a bit dull. I had my endgame ships and enough cash to give me a net worth of almost half a billion. So I decided to clear my save and start in one of the Pilots Federation system. Wow!! That was great. They actually had an evaluation (tutorial) before you were issued a license. Voice acted, too. I pretty much breezed through that but not too fast. I wanted to enjoy it, which I did.
For those who say, "Ugh!!! Clear my save? And lose all that progress?" It's not as bad as you think. Sure you lose all but 1k of cash and all your ships, but you have something they can't take away; all that experience. Yes, you were that bad when you first started. You didn't know any trade routes, how to find trade routes, heck, you didn't even know how to dock to a spinner. I had 400k before I left the starter systems and left in an Adder. And this was with just 3 or 4 hours of playing time. Since then, about 5 hours or so, I'm in a Cobra MkIII and have 500k cash and am well on the way to making that ship an iron a**. Elite Dangerous just got fun again.
As for how I made so much so quickly, I'll give you a hint. My Cobra MkIII is named Marie Curie. And that's all I'll say.

I'll remember that!
