After long hard segments, days, tenspans, even cycles at the docks and shipyards, after numerous illicit missions, after some business ventures it has finally happened:
I Got 5 on It
By "it" I mean my bank account. And by "5" I mean million credits. About three cycles after my previous milestone I have now reached another one. Which leads me straight to a second saying from the olden days.

I made it back to Tau with 0.000g antimater left. I put 5 in it.
Maybe they could make a tanker ship you can fill at Tau for 5 million and fuel up other ships, perhaps in L7 or Ceti, at a substantial profit . . .
