It half year, so time to remind myself what my 2026 Aim were
The 2026 aims - isk making
Regional Trading: this will remain the core part of by business but i am thinking will become a lower proportion as other revenue streams expand.
Half year review: it has remained my core business but is still 90% if my business in terms of assets and profits
Manufacturing: i want to expand this into something more systematic rather than opportunistic.
Half year review: depressingly, no advance here. I hope to have better news by the year end.
Seeding markets: This is all about creating new trade hubs. i want to expand this. When i get it right it works well. When i get it wrong nothing happens. It folds into Regional Trading quite well and so is an easy expansion to make. I just need to find the markets to seed.
Half year review: good effort but results lacking. Attempts to expand have been seen off by seeding venues being destroyed. I hope to have better news by the year end.
Low Sec / Null sec: i want to do more here and i suspect market seeding and manufacturing will take me there
Half year review: nothing happened here. I hope to have better news by the year end.
The 2026 aims - non-isk making
Alliance: operating on my own is fine but dull. I may see if i can join an Alliance or some other social venture. The huge advantage of operating on my own is that i don't need to make commitments to anyone other than myself.
Giving away ISK: this will continue, targeting content generators. The aim is to give away all monthly profits (which are under pressure right now!).
Half year review: have given away 91 billion isk so far this year, being held back a bit by the low revenues so far this year.
The 2026 aims - Eve related
Fanfest: i am going to Fanfest for the first time to see what this is all about!
Half year review: done that.
London meetups: i will aim to attend these (i would have got to the last one but real life got in the way).
Half year review: i suspect i will be unable to go to the October meetup given i will be elsewhere.
