MoLAoS, why are you so sure that you Sooper Sekrit Silver Bullet Method will reliably generate revenue for any length of time? EVE is known for having fluid conditions, and it won't take much of a change in the current to dash your plans. For the record, I'm not disbelieving your unstated method... just interested to hear expanded logic, if you can illuminate it without sekrit-breaking spoilers.
I played for about a year, late '07 to late '08... and I did little else during that time, outside of eat/sleep/work. It was like paying for the privilege of labouring upon a second job. 
That is quite incompatible with my schoolwork. I do wish the B12ers good luck in their ventures, though. 
Just remember: It doesn't matter where you are... when you undock, you undock for PVP. o7
There may be some issues with market fluctuations. But I know regular people reliably score enough money for 1 or 2 plexes using this strategy on their extra alts. And in theory its a method that benefits from economy of scale. I will probably want to diversify a bit more than the average person.
I am planning on using planetary interaction and I am applying to the rpg.net wormhole corp so I can be in the best place for it. I am going to use multiple accounts including each alt on each account. I should be able to make 1.5bil isk a month per account, although it wont be a steady stream. I'll have to do some work finding good places to sell and be able to make several p4-p5 products to avoid getting screwed by market flux. In theory one account should be able to plex itself plus 2 more accounts so running 4 accounts of 3 PI fit characters each should be good for 12. Assuming it goes well I'll expand my strategy. I have a lot of experience in click heavy stuff like WF exploration and ATITD mat farming so I should be able to manage that many accounts fairly easily. The main limit is access to enough planets I think. By having accounts use the same planets I save time on scans for hot resource areas, make my hauling a lot easier and faster and have access to tons of res in a few places to make effective production chains.
The way to make a lot of money is to exploit the fact that I can run multiple accounts as one person with limited overhead compared to people who only run their main account alts as PI. Plus I'm inured to the tedium of management stuff and I enjoy econ work more than combat in many cases.
Although I'm under guard of an established wormhole corp there may be some gank risk but shouldn't be a huge deal.
People in corp report being able to make 1.8bil a month with main and 2 alts all with 4s in the PI skills. Since I'm with a low to no tax corp in wormhole space I have access to top producing planets compared to hi or low sec planets as well as no import export taxes which increase my profit margin a lot. Ideally I'll be able to manage multiple high level production chains and I'll be able to have factories on the same planets as extractors due to having multiple accounts.
I have reliable intel of a 2 account PI player in the alliance the wormhole corp is in only spending less than 2 hours a day working and getting 1.2bil on each account, but he is less obsessive than me and doesn't produce high level goods either. I have time to work with optimal time cycles due to lack of major time commitments which means increased output plus I'll be using more accounts and in a decent wormhole for PI.
I actually calculated a much higher return than 27 plexes plus extra for ships but I want to be conservative so I am not personally disappointed and don't over promise anyone else. Ideally if I can handle 4 accounts which is 12 characters without a lot of hassle I will continue to scale till it gets too much. I'd like to spend 4 hours a day max but I may extend to more time and accounts depending on the actual profit.
You may also benefit from even more obsessive micromanaging of production thus increasing wealth if I procrastinate really hard on my game programming/design project.
