So, I'm new. And I have 1 billion ISK.

Recently, a friend enticed me with 1 billion ISK to start up a subscription. I've done so, and I have to admit, with money not exactly being an issue, I have no idea where to begin.

Is there something other than just grinding skills that I should be doing, currently? Anything I should be investing in? I'd /love/ to get into the PVP scene - the thought of taking other players hostage sounds like fun, but I know that's a pretty far-away goal until I get the hang of things. This game looks great - I'm excited to get into the community, but I'm not entirely sure of the best way to do it.

Thanks! -Shix
