Starting to pull assets out of asset safety

 So with the fall of Pandemic Horde (which has now officially dissolved) I ended up with a bunch of assets in asset safety, primarily in Odebeinn. This presents a logistical and financial issue as it's on the opposite side of high sec from Jita and I'd need about 9Bn to retrieve my assets there to be shipped out. I've started this process though, parking my character in the station there and I flew out one of my characters in a blockade runner to retrieve what I could.

That character is not currently in my trading corp and had 2.5Bn ISK to his name, which I spent getting out some choice items, which I then shipped to Dodixie and traded to my seller there to sell. This is going to be my pattern with it going forwards. I could have transferred money to him and cleared it all out in one go, but decided not to. 

One, I didn't want to take away from the money being used by my traders elsewhere for this, at least not now. I have a years PLEX bill looming for one of my industry accounts and didn't need the extra expense right now.

Also, and perhaps more importantly, it won't all fit in a blockade runner. Therefore, i took the lazy route and will do several runs to get everything out as and when I feel like it.

There is one slight complication with this, and that is that Fraternity have anchored a Keepstar on grid with the asset safety station, to catch careless people retrieving their stuff:


They're just sitting there...menacingly...

This is why I want to use a blockade runner for this and do it over time. It'll make me much harder to predict, catch, and if they do catch me it won't be a big hit. No bubbles in Low sec is good too.

Eventually I'll get back on track, though I need to work out what to do with this character long term.

All this mess means that this month so far my industry venture has made more profit so far than my trading, which is a bit wild. The EveMogul leaderboard is another good motivator to get my trading moving again properly though as a lot of my purchases were before EveMogul can track as yet my profit there looks a lot lower than reality, but it should start to reflect reality over the next few months as it gets to track more of my buys.
