Money in eve does not come from pvp. It comes from pve - high value moons & moon mining, ship production (capital, t2, t3) and sales, wormholes, research, lp sales, hauling, trading, incursions, missions, mining. It is incredibly rare to make money off of pvp - pvp is done mostly to deny resources and income to others, to safeguard ones 'territory' and because its fun.
Your analogy is flawed by the mere idea that the most money comes from pvp, while stuff like suicide tanking can be worth a bit it's not nearly as good income (or as consistent) as owning an r64 moon. |

WTF ??? Tech was about PVP not moon mining.... Sure you moon mined for it but it was the PVP that allowed it to happen. Same with Capital building in a giant open pvp zone.... If you said 0.0 Incursions produced the most ISK compared to others then sure.... even that has a huge element of PVP ask rooks and kings. Nothing happens in a giant 0.0 Open free pvp zone without it being directly related back to PVP.
R64 moons were upwards of 20b isk monthly per moon and all you had to do was fuel the pos and empty the silos. Pvp was not a money generating activity |

Pvp was to deny access of that asset to others, it didn't necessarily mean you gained control of it yourself, as said before pvp in the vast majority of cases is almost always a net LOSS of capital. It is supplemented through other things ie. you get to pvp because your alliance controls 300b worth of moons and has assets that make selling moon goo easy (jump bridges etc). The average player is also supplemented by being able to rat or run incursions.
Pvp is not an inherently money generating activity.
