When I had a Confed Crusier, I just dominated a bunch of planets and go 20 mil. A DAY!! 
:mad:
Get at least an Argosy or anything stronger (IMO Corvette or above is best) and a good rating with the Confeds. Go to the Antares system (upper-right lower-left section of the galaxy) and disable and capture 4 to 6 Bulk Freighters (since Pirates would be hounding you for your Bulk Freighters, it is better off to leave room for one or two fighting escorts such as Rapiers or even better, Corvettes). Go to a Pirate system or one with a lot of Pirates and disable some Pirate Argosies that you come across. Board them and head FIRST for their cargo. Steal their cargo (and possibly some credits), and keep doing this until your ships are filled up. Take the cargo to the places where the prices for each type of cargo are high, and sell them. Keep doing this until you have 20 million. Better yet, dominate some planets.

Actually thats impossible too 
theres 107 spobs in EV, and the highest tech level of any of them is 5, so if all the spobs had a tech level of 5, you'd only get 535,000 credits, but most planets are lower than 5 and there are many uninhabited planets, the max you'd probably get is around 200,000.

Although I haven't tried it, and it may take awhile, there is a possible way to get 20 million in one hit. First you need to have sided with the Rebels and recieved the tractor beam secong, you need a pretty capable Kestrel. Get the Artemis Group missions and abort in the last mission before its completed in the pirate system. There should be 10 kestrels. Get rid of the UGE guys and disable everyone else, including the fighters. Wait awhile beforehand though so they unload all the secondaries. Drag the lightnings into the kestrels board them and steal em. Do this on all of them, land, and sell for a possible 20 million credits.

20 mil isn't that hard to get. I just disable alot of ships with a corvette, or captured cruiser :). But I have gotten maxed out so that I was in the negatives hehehehe, bloody pain in the ass. This was cause I was OL of all the planets (cost and arm and a leg, but doable. Don't bother with Sol unless you want to sit there for hours killing ships.)
But I consider the easiest way is to board and take credits from every ship in the Darven system, except gov ships cause they give you nothing. Board and do these things in this order, Credits - Weapons - Cargo - Capture ship. You can get lucky and get better ships this way.

Why's 20 mil the limit? Whats the highest anybodys ever gotten?

20 million is far from the limit. As far as I recall, the limit sits somewhere around 1.61 billion credits...with all credits greater than that amount being erased immediately after gameplay resumes...

It is about that, but it is due to the number is wich was programmed, they only went so high cause that is the highest that was allowed in the programming. Capture all planets, disable and board all ships will get you to 1.61 BILLION credits, takes a while though hehehe.

1.61 billion credits is feasible, at least in EVGE. Dominate every single system, and expect somewhere around half a million a day or so...I forget...then, take off and land from a random planet a LOT of times...but seriously...the problem when you get so much money is figuring out how to spend it.

easy ways to get 20mil... hmmm.... well, comodity exchange is boring. And, it takes a while to be honest.
You could do it through missions...
All Rebel Special Missions - 12.5mil
Diphidia II mission - 1mil
Artemis Missions - 500k
Total 14million credits, plus go round attacking pirate kestrels, pinch the credits, AND if they have the 2 lightings inside (lucky if you do) pinch them.
That'll give you 20mil credits.
I found a derelict Kestrel Drifting through the galaxy. Unfortunatly, I still couldn't capture it (how the hell can you not capture a derelict ship, for gods sake? No-one's inside to oppose you...) but I got 500k and 2 lightnings, which was nice. Still, I have a rebel cruiser with a few confed. frigates and a couple of kestrels for escorts. I'm pretty safe.
