I need some help im tryin to buy the solus greatsword but i have no money also im on my search for rare an powaful weps so yea

Well there's this very good scheme it's also used in real life ,but with some diffrence after all this is a game.This scheme is called "Buy cheap , sell expensive".The thing is to buy as many precious gems of one kind[saphires,diamonds etc.]
Like for instance go around every town and keep buying diamonds [or anything else] and keep stockpilling...After sometime when you have 70 or more gems of the same kind [diamonds for e.g] find a buyer that will buy them , but before you sell them all to him check if he has any on him if he has buy them as well , when he has no more diamonds sell them all to him.Due to the fact that he has no diamonds on him he will buy them at a very expensive price.But that's not all , after you've done this you can rebuy the gems from him for a very cheap price[due to the fact that he has many].
This is so because the NPCs are instructed to lower their prices if they have a large quantity of a specific item and to raise their prices if they have very little of the specified item.This can be somewhat exploited by the player so you sell them at outrageous prices and yet you rebuy them for 1/2 of the price that you sold them.If you don't understand freely ask a question...

kool thax sooo very much o an by the way if u had a realy expensive house e.g hook coast house is there much money to be made by renting those kind of houses out?

ok renting houses is worthless. If you want some real money beat the arena and the kracken. the go buy your parents house and break the door. now upgrade the house till there are 2 placks on the wall. now put the tooth and the arena seal on the placks and sell the place. now run back in and take the tooth and seal off the placks and go buy the house again and put the things on the placks again and go sell do this many times and you'll get large amounts of gold. I mean it takes a while but it's worth it

naah, the best way to get much money is buy cheap sell expensive.
u can start by buy lot of green apple, over 80 the price u buy be 1 gold, you can sell 3/4 gold. then buy emerald, sell it again. if the trader dont have stock they gonna buy it soo expensive, but...you must be a good person hahahaha.....
gem give you more income, try it at oakvale the shop have lot of emerald

i think the house and trophy thing is ok the easiest way is get the house to highest decoration then destroy door while you own it so u dont pay any fines.the buy cheap sell expensive thing is good too especially if u buy all of that one item that u can find then sell in one store.

The easiest way I've found is the buy cheap sell expesive option... I go to Oakvale, and wait until they have all the purfume and emeralds. Buy all perfume until you can buy all the emeralds. Wash, rinse, and repeat. Its fast, easy, and you get skill experiance from it. And i you need more, wait until they restock then buy all again. You can do diamonds when you get to Bowerstone North I believe.

u can also do that thing where u have sex but u need a dress and a wig and i suggest not being bad u get less money i got 1mil doing it non stop
