EVE Online mission multiboxing ships ?

Thulos, what are you doing in game thats generating passive income? Did you invest? Research agents?

I buy materials in bulk to produce items in empire and then export them to deep 0.0 stations to sell at a decent markup. Unfortunately what I do requires a lot of startup isk, capital ships fro transportation (a couple billion here) and an alliance/corp that has access to 0.0 space. I typically have between 500m and 1 billion invested in my goods and sell them for about a 20-25% markup. I go through stock about twice a week atm. It's not 100% passive but the amount of effort I put in to making isk ends up being just a couple hours.

There is a bit of passive income to be had in research agents but its probably no more than a couple hundred million a month, but it is completely passive. Playing the market is another way to make easy money but you have to baby sit orders constantly. Even so it doesn't take much effort. I used to make a couple hundred million a week doing it but got bored of it. Basically you find items in the market that have at least a 10% margin between the buy and sell orders as well as having a decent volume. YOu can then setup buy orders for the item and just relist them at a higher value. You are basically just taking advantage of lazy people that want immediate sales. This requires a bit of startup capital and a market hub. You could porbably start off with 100m but it would take a while to build up.

Oh, and unless I'm doing something wrong, it won't let me play my pay account and my trial the same time on the same machine. Can I play multiple pay accounts at the same time, or did that change with the latest expansion?

You cannot run two accounts on one machine if one of them is a trial account. You can do it on multiple machines though.
