ezlin, 
It ain't much, but it's honest work.
Players are raking in millions from a single salvaging job and here I am making my first million from mining after about a week.
This is a final profit of about 300K, which ain't great, but this is using rented vehicles. Those vehicles cost me a total of 170,952 aUEC.
The rented miner can't have its equipment upgraded so it's quite inefficient. It can't mine the best rocks.
To buy the Hull A I'll need another 290,853 aUEC. So, another week.
