During the years he served on the Marauder he made countless business transactions either solely for himself or as joint ventures with other crew members. With some of the accumulated wealth he invested in several business ventures with varying success. By far the most successful of these is the freight company which he started from scratch and is the sole owner of. Being the son of a DaiMon it was almost natural that he go into some form of couriering, plus the contacts he made in those years made the start-up and growth almost easy. The company employs around 20 Ferengi and is run in Ralik's absence by Toki, the man Ralik trusts the most, at least by Ferengi standards. | During the years he served on the Marauder he made countless business transactions either solely for himself or as joint ventures with other crew members.

Since this was far from the most cost effective way to do this, as soon as profits allowed it he invested in five single pilot fighters which he got discounted as a bulk buy from a Ferengi associate. They weren't in the best shape but they were adequate to warn off potential pirates, and have since been rebuilt and upgraded. Employing eight pilots the firm is overseen by th'Clane, an Andorian, and shadowed by Toki. Over 60% of it's income comes from Ralik's freight company as an add on service. | ||
