Whats the fastest way youve used to make alot of money in the unmoded game?
Easy ways to make money quickly:
1. Mining. Costs you nothing and it's pure profit. Of course, you are likely to get attacked by pirates while doing it.
2. Wreck hunting. You can recover weapons and cargo to sell -- again pure profit. Good way to get better weapons early in the game too. But once again, look out for pirates. Sometimes you might hear about a wreck in a bar. At other times, you'll have to think where wrecks might be ... i. e. dangerous areas where accidents happens, dangerous for you too!
3. Trading. You will soon find out who wants what. Buy cheaply and sell where it gets a good price. To do this early in the game, you'll have to let Juni wait while you make money. But it will be worth it, since you can get a better ship for her missions. Juni will hang around the bar, doing whatever it is she does in bars, until you get back to her.
4. Fly bounty missions. All bases will have some. But early in the game, the missions don't bring you that much money. Still, they can be worth it when you salvage equipment and cargo from the baddies you've blown up.
Now there ... no spoilers! Just sensible advice.

woot, thank you. ive recently found it very profitable to pirate junkers as soon as they come out of thier base with a full load of carmadine (before thier shields are up). and then travel a few k to sell it for 1500 each.
just a calc but with the right freighter it would bring 412500 in one run.
