For the last few days I've been switching between my trading Asp & combat Viper just to mix up my play style.
I've been grinding away trying to get my credits up so I can purchase a Lakon T7 and double my cargo and in turn, profit.
I'm able to purchase a T7 but not enough credits to upgrade, purchase goods or cover my insurance.
So... I decided to purchase the T7 and upgrade the cargo anyway!
I found the grind to be a bit slow and repetitive so I wanted to make it a bit more exciting:

I can tell you there's no better way to make this more exciting. High risk, high gain, right?
My speed of 200+ through the mail slot has turned in to 25, careful not to scratch the paint.
A few upgrades along the way increases my insurance and lightens my wallet meaning it's an ongoing cycle to keep head above water to ensure my available credits cover the insurance.
I had a heart attack moment when I was half way through the slot and noticed a T9 coming out. It was too late to stop and found myself wedged between the mail slot and the T9. Shields took a beating down to 1 ring but thankfully nothing more than that.
Adrenaline? Yes
Regrets? Not yet - I probably could have kept the Asp trade run for 1 more day and ended upgrading to T7 safely but I found this 'choice' to be gutsy and fun to talk about with my colleagues who are also playing.
