How much do you make per week?
You make 1 billion with just one character a week? oO
I think, farming really isn't the best possibility for gaining money then ^^
Seems like I have to get into marketeering...
I make about 300+ (drop dependant) per week with simple farming...
I've never tried to measure it accurately, but back when I ran my investment scheme, the conclusion was each active marketing character makes about 1bn/month. Extrapolating from that, since I'm marketing on 8 characters right now, I ought to be making 8bn/month, or 2bn every week. But that doesn't feel right to me; my own estimate is 4bn-5bn a month.
I can cap influence (2B) in about 6 days. I've done it 8 times, so I have a pretty good feel about how long it can take me. What limits me from going faster is just having enough play time to do it.
I don't have a figure per week, because I farm/market as the need arises and not constantly.
couple hundred million a week? I don't try very hard, though.
EDIT: That is marketeering. I've been earning merits for Midlevel Crisis and I made at least half a billion last week. Decidedly variable, I suspect, because one LoTG and two Stealths were more than half of that.

I don't farm, and lately I've only been playing low level characters, so pretty much everything I've made has been on the market. I've tried to get a decent nest egg for each new character, but that's all I've bothered with. I probably haven't made more than 10 million in a week for quite a while.

My name is all_hell and I am a hoarder. I have a great deal of trouble holding on to cash. I keep bids up for various things I might need in the future for one of my other alts. As the bids come through, I squirrel them away in storage. Lately I have been doing some odd work on a lowbie almost exclusively, so the inf from my higher level toons has been steadily dwindling as my purchases are made.
I have one rack of things I buy to sell later and another couple of racks that are for my later use. I haven't gotten into my to-sell rack lately because I have kept my BM slots full of bids.
So I would guess that lately I have been 'losing' around 200-300 mil a week.
I make around 300-400mil a week.
I dont farm and really only time I have played a 50 lately is is a Hami raid, prep work for a Nuke Hami raid and a couple of ITF's.
I have been pushing 5 toons into the lvl 40 range and looking at some of my low teens to get some mid level market stuff out there.

Nothing saids its your spot like an ourob. Portal dropped on the ground.
Typically I'll make 10 IOs and they sell out every other day at 2-7 ml profit, so that's roughly 25 mil a toon per day x 9 toons and that is about 1.75 billion a week at full speed. Thats only if I go full speed with volume sales, whereas I typically go half volume and half random lowball bids. So I'd still say I'd get 1 billion a week and it would range up to 2 billion on a good week for lowballs.
I am an ebil markeeter and will steal your moneiz ...correction stole your moneiz. I support keeping the poor down because it is impossible to make moneiz in this game.
For me, 10-20 mil a week.
I actively market with about 12-15 toons to make money. Many of them I log into once a week or even less (it's a pain to log in so many toons just to market). Usually I can count on pulling in, say, 80 mil to maybe 250 mil per toon once a week, so I suppose at a bare minimum I'm making 1 billion a week, spread across various toons. Probably closer to 2 billion a week. One toon is Virtue redside (my only villain marketeer), two are on Victory and one is on Freedom, the rest are blueside Virtue toons.
I do find many ways to spend my money though. ^_^

I don't keep count lol. Maybe a few hundred million a week?

Currently 0 (retired), but I've seen some of my old niches w/wider profit gaps than ever. If I ever get low my liquid reserve (not likely), I'll make more.
Back in the old days before PvP IOs and whatnot, and you could get most purp recipes for 30-40M, I was making about 1.5B a month w/low-medium effort, so around 400M/week. I'm sure I could more than triple that w/the same level of effort once I got everything set up. 1B/week would be easy.

I don't want this to turn into a pissing contest but I'm just curious how much everyone makes per week on average.

I know some folks use inf as a way of keeping score in the mini-game, but I've always been more interested in the process than the result. "Will this kooky idea work?" is my motivation.
I only track amounts in the most general way possible- this character is Frankenslot rich, this one is Purples for Days rich.
I'd say if you're happy with your rate of earning, you're making enough. It's a situation where there is no right or wrong, there's just what you think.

My City Was Gone
I actively marketeer with 3 toons, one varies wildly, but makes say 200-300M in a normal week (it was a LOT more over the christmas period), another makes a little less than that, and the third I log on less often, so it varies a huge amount how much he makes as I bid very low and his turnover is low, but he made 100M last night.
It's true. This game is NOT rocket surgery. - BillZBubba
I only farm and sell drops. Flipping provides absolutely no service to my fellow players, and in fact only serves to further drive up prices and make more part timers frustrated over not being able to afford anything good without resorting to investing/flipping themselves to get it.
Therefore, I only sell what I dont use from what I get farming, and only buy what I cant find with the proceeds from what I sell. I think of it as my little gift back to CoH. Theres enough fake money profiteers out there that the game doesnt need me making it worse.
That said, I only play 1-2 hours a day topping out at about 4-5 hours a week total, so dont generate as much stuff as I used to. I probably take in 50 mil a night, then spend 150 mil a week so I only hold onto 50-100 mil profit in a week of play.
I am a billionaire...but dont think I rate too high on the ebil scale.
I reckon I'm making 7-10 million infamy a week, just by crafting generic IOs and selling them on one character.
I do it every day while I'm eating breakfast, and maybe once when I get home from work before doing missions. Its keeping my fledgling group of ten villains in Thunderstrike/Crushing Impact level of IOs quite nicely so far.
For a while on Heroes I had a similar scheme with one central marketer and three assistants on my other account and was probably clearing 50 mill a week. That became a bit of a drag to maintain though. And as soon as I hit a billion I switched to CoV and started all over again
I can easily make over bil a week farming and selling drops. Even the wifey made 900m last week farming and selling her drops. I haven't kept track of it to the penny, but i''m at the cap on a couple toons and just spent a couple bil on my scrapper. I don't mess with or use pvp io's. Im not THAT big time. lol.
When I was heavily into it (I've slowed down quite a bit lately) I was making about 10 mil per day just from buying common salvage and using field crafter to craft commons.
I'd run 3 or 4 katies a day (more on the weekends) and would net another 5-15 mil per day from that. Post merits I'd run a speed Posi or 3 per week and a few ITFs, LGTFs, Khan TFs as well as some of the other TFs.
If I wanted to exert myself a little I could clear 250-300 mil per week but I really have no need. My main crafter has just under 1b in cash and my Base bins are literally crammed to the brims with crafted Rare Pool As, High demand Pool C's, HOs, Synth HOs, and Purples. I estimate that there's 15-20 billion worth of IOs in there and all my toons and my wife's toons are either in the process of leveling or are at 50 and fully slotted the way we want them.
I have 2 level locked toons red side generating Pool C's and 4 level locked toons blue side generating Pool C's. I create and sell more Pool C's than I slot and have been giving stuff away to friends and teammates.

Personally I could manage 1 billion if I worked hard for it. But that doesn't seem like a lot compared to some people. (I'm talking about the guys who buy & sell multiple PVP IOs.)

If I'm working for it? About the same as you, about a billion a week. And yeah, I don't really think of that as the big leagues compared to the people fiddling with the PvP IOs. I was thinking about getting into that, but then I blew 8 billion on my last build, so I'd have to work my way back up to it now. And right now, that sounds like work.

On average? Hmmm, about 12 billion over... 66 month badge... round it to 300 weeks... so about 40 million per week?

Each character can have about 40 billion (with the 5 +1 slot badges) saved in the consignment house. Is anyone in game even close to that at present?
Well, I'm not sure what the big leagues are. But let's conservatively say you can make five billion per week (the true figure is likely somewhat higher). If you've been doing that for a year, you'd have about two hundred and fifty billion. So if nobody has 40 billion stashed away, I'd be shocked.

Probably a billion a week, drop-dependent of course.

on average I probably make around 500-600 mill a week.
this is thru a combination of farming for drops, farmin for AE tickets,and some flipping everyonce in a while....I don't have a long enough attention span to be a heavy duty marketeer like some of u....made 2 bill last night for sellin the panacea unique I found while i was stalking a group of stalkers and stealing all their kills...lol
I don't want this to turn into a pissing contest but I'm just curious how much everyone makes per week on average. I want to know if I'm making a decent enough amount per week compared to my peers.
