For startup cash you can find some good posts in the Player Guides and The Market/Invention sections:

"when a stalker goes blue side, assassination strike should be renamed "bunny hugs", and a rainbow should fly out" -Harbinger-
I sadly suck when it comes to playing the market, at least that's been the case in every single game I've tried to do so
I'm pretty sure a double exp weekend would help, but no idea when the next one is.
It's a pain to see all those slots with no or red enhancements

You and the wife pick a cpl of interesting AE mishs to run, get the tickets, do the rolls and sell your street product on the market. Easy/quick enough way to get some money while exploring some of the cool AE stories.|

Also, I don't know how it works...but maybe you could contact NCSOFT and ask about your old account?

AE stories ? I must have been gone longer than I thought, because I have no idea what that is heh.
Just went to the trading house, took me 10 minutes to find out where the price was listed, heh.

Done some reading about AE, I see locations for AE buildings in hero and villains zones, but what about Praetorians ?
Gosh I hate being a noob with noob questions again 
Theres no AE in praetoria.
But don't worry. With some luck some luck you can easily earn good inf if you sell some drops in tradinghouse.
Prunejuice is warriors drink.
Another noob question, can you go from Praetoria to Hero zones ?

Also just thought about it...you can also mail money and things to yourself now. I used to run regular content outside of Praetoria and then mail money and enhancements to my Prae toons.|

That would be great if I still had access to my rich toons

no worries, just check your drops and list the expensive ones for a little over 1/2 the 'going rate'. |

You'll make enough to kit out with anything except the absolute top of the line l337 gear that way, and if you decide you need the REALLY good stuff just stop by the market forum, we'll be happy to help you out.

My City Was Gone
Started selling some salvage at the trading house, got a few hundred thousand inf and a nice set of DO enhancements, guess this won't be a painful as I feared 
(I still want my millions back though !)

If you really want to save money, I'd say make some basic IOs for your toons so you don't have to buy new enhancements every few levels.
