Currently, right now I have one main character that has 207 million SP and 4 brand new alts just 2 weeks old. I had to look at RL money and see what I could afford and 5 accounts is all I can afford to run at this present time. In-game cash flow is a little slim as I helped out a few folks with some investments.

If you only had 5 accounts to multibox would you still go the route of working up towards 5 RR domis in a c4 with a c5 static? With the intentions of getting them setup to fly capitals for escalations?

I considered the incursions but that is a bit of a steep price for me to setup in regards to RL money to train alts. I would really like to keep it at a minimum of 5 accounts for right now. I am a little broke.

My thought on this was to go live in a c3 wh for now till my alts are able to actually fly something useful. I would then train up the extra two slots on each of the 4 alts accounts for PI. I have plenty of Barren and Lava planets that I can get a Robotics factory running on each of the 8 characters which would bring in roughly 12 mill isk a day, 360 mill a month on a 23.75 hour cycle on each account. Monthly total would be 2.8 billion isk a month from PI. My main can run all of the sites in the c3 solo in a tengu taking roughly 10 minutes per site using my alts as eyes on the existing wh exits. A normal month would make me about 1.5 bill isk a month from blue loot and salvage.

Does this sound like a good plan or from experience what would you recommend as a better idea?

My end goal is to not reply on just making isk to just be space rich but eventually supply additional alts that I can PVP with not have to be concerned if I can afford major losses that I cannot resupply.
If your main can currently fly a capital well, you might consider putting him into a PvP/PvE corp that runs escalations. That should provide some ISK to pay for the main subscription and trickle down some ISK to subsidize your alts.

Another option would be joining an existing corp in a c2-c3/x or c4-c3/c5. C3 space has been a great place to get started, but I'm quickly outgrowing it although I have 7 pilots instead of 5. Joining the existing corp would bolster your fleet running numbers, make rolling holes simpler/safer, and won't have much of a downside(besides actually getting in). Setup your own tower and go to work.

I haven't multiboxed PI yet, but singleboxing it was such a pain in the ass that I didn't bother. Maybe one day I'll try it with isboxer.

I have the same goal(capital escalations) and it looks to me like it'll be another ~6 months before all my guys are sufficiently skilled that I would consider it. So.. keep that in mind. It might be faster to use the sub-cap pilots to grind ISK to buy cap pilots. All depends on how frequently you can play, and your tolerance of grinding billions of ISK.
