I'm broke \o/
No matter what I do, I always hit rock bottom. I'm constantly getting my teeth kicked in. I'm a closed beta vet, yet I'm at 24.3M SP. I biomassed set the start of 1.7, and at this point, I may put my next paycheck 100% into dust! and start triple stacking omegas for a few months.
I'm forced to run solo because all my friends don't play anymore. I die nowadays, a lot. I have never managed to break over 25M ISK. I'm living DUST battle to battle, trying to scrounge up whatever ISK I can. I'm currently sitting with almost no assets, and a a few hundered grand. I started making BPO suits with Proto mods (don't worry, always under 20k a fit) and I'm breaking even/losing ISK every. Damn. Battle.
Essentially, I need to learn how to manage my cash. I need tips, pointers, donations, anything.
Hell, even a tactically organized squad would be nice. I'm sick and tired of nobody on my entire team running a needle (most of my fits have needles). I'm currently sitting here with max cores, maxed ARs, maxed Snipers (I've been sniping since beta, I'm one of those rare, useful snipers, my record was 81/0 with a charge back in Uprising 1.6) and level 5 swarms (no prof).
I have assault ck.0, Logistics mk.0, and starting to skill into My 'Sever' GalScout.
I don't even know what to do set this point...
(I refuse to run ambush. Period. Also, I'm not the biggest fan of fully BPO suits.

I have around 30 million on this account and... uh... in the nine-figure amount on my main.
I have no idea how people can hit rock bottom, or not be able to make ISK. My fits all are around 15-30k. I see my ISK amounts steadily go up when I actually find the time to play.
I've heard it said that Ambush is the way to go if you want the ISK, and Domination/Skirmish if you want the SP. From my limited experience with the cesspool that is Ambush, I think it is indeed the case... but I see you refuse Ambush (rightfully so).
Anyway, regardless of your inability to keep a stable wallet, your future looks bright. CPM SirManBoy (or something) and Rattati are forging ahead on ways to potentially improve ISK amounts made, via algorithm, salvage techniques, or super secret things I know nothing about.
I am a minotaur.

Dude i suck at this this game and I'm sitting on almost 110mil. I run suits around 20-30k. Make a decent 25k suit with r9 uplinks and profit. I'm not trying to be mean but you're doing something wrong.
Is it possible that you're more worried about killing than wp? I have 2 goals every game

You sure you're not giving in and throwing a few protosuits at matches every now and then? Virtually all of my pub fits except a couple logis are under 8-20k (most frequently used are ~13k) and it's incredibly easy to make money, even in really bad matches.
Are your fittings optimized for isk efficiency? How much do those proto mods *really* help you? Most of the time, you can cut a few thousand by stepping down a tier (or even two) for most mods, as you'll find the sacrifice in performance less significant that you might think. Same with grenades (just run basic flux for most situations) and sidearms (well, everything but the Magsec).
Do you control your spawns, or do you respawn as close to the action as you can as soon as possible? There are generally ideal windows of time and locations for respawning, especially in tough matches, so try to identify them. Sometimes a link in an out-of-the-way place is a better choice than a closer option, as it gives you more control over how you're going to engage with the fight (which is especially important with a suit like the Cal Assault). Also, track your deaths vs WP/average position. If you're mostly landing in the middle of the board, 6-7 deaths in a 20k suit will drink your milkshake... that is, eat your income right up. You may need to respawn less incautiously, or, as above, make your go-to suits more isk efficient to buy yourself some breathing room.
Squadding up will definitely help, too. As mentioned, Learning Coalition is one of the better channels still around, ime.
Reality is the original Rorschach.
Verily! So much for all that.

I just run Frontline suits to get back in the positive. And unless you are spending above your means like most of us do in real life you should never run out of ISK. I have close to 30 million ISK consistently and it felt like too much money so I gave some away and bought a lot of tanks and deployed as many as I could for my FW matches. I still have more than 5 million ISK now and I gave 1 million away today. I got the Tiger scout through grinding Min FW. Its very easy to make ISK unless you are not spending smart

You need a session with dedicated cheap fits (no matter the turnout, you don't go proto. stay cheaply fit) and nothing but the good ol Ambush. You'll start to see a nice return. Try running those sessions for three days to make good fast cash.

I have the same amount of SP, join T.H.I.R.D R.O.C.K and you will constantly be competing for kills so you will get increasingly adapt at finishing your target before he is stolen.... I always go off by myself because my kills get stolen  . And If i were you I would never pull out that proto logi.......they are squishy enough to be basic/advanced assaults I run a basic ScR 90% of the time. So playing with me you can catch on to the tactics the best will use...seeing as how you are caldari you'll want to get a feel for your arch enemy (ScR). For example, when I am facing a ScR I do not poke out of cover I generally will jump out of cover because I know if they are charge shooting they have picked their spot to fire on via free aim, by jumping out you will force them to re adjust there aim or go for the shot mid jump. If they do fire at you there is a 5 sec window where you can be your most effective....I would say more but I don't want to write a guide on countering my favorite weapon lol. Join the darkside and you will have greater power.....and maybe some help with managing your isk.

Starter fittings. They aren't amazing, but they are great for making ISK.
If you are willing to run FW in starter fittings for a while in order to save up LP, you could buy one of the APEX dropsuits. They help with conserving ISK. If you have some spare cash, and don't mind the high price tag, you could just flat out buy an APEX.

Get a bpo sentinel. Amarr or Gal. Stack plates. Join Heavy/Logi Funzone channel. Join squad. Profit.
Alternatively run a min logi with decent rep tool (they are always in demand in there). Profit in ways you couldn't imagine. HINT: you can easily get good repper and needle on a basic min logi.

use a basic mini logi bro - first life drop 6 uplinks, next life uplink needle and reptool.
if lots of uplinks are still running don't go into the assault suit or some will go.

You'll get good at picking targets and not getting into st00pit engagements, so you'll tend to not die a ton once you get decent with the PLC. As a beginner, just use the PLC as a flux and use the flaylock as the finisher.
Also, I'll try adding you whenever I get on. I tend to see you in Scouts United a lot. It'll only be me and you though.

I'm really surprised that you're broke. Use STD. Unless you die, like, 20-30 times, you will make a profit. Hell, use all ADV, and you should be able to make a profit unless you die, like, 6-7 times. I assume you are not dying 7 times in a match consistently.
