However, we can all pull ourselves out of this slump of suckage and bring ourselves wealth. How?!!, you ask? Good question, one that I hope to answer!
Some people say to sell armors that are not +1 or Blue/SOS/etc to the merchants and then stall everything else, but I find that not entirely true. As long as I don't get booted from the game, I can stall at least 100k a night. I have had over 500k since level 14, and I am an INT player that doesn't rest while playing (lots of potions). I also have +STR on nearly all of my equipment.
They key is to plan ahead; if you see something that you will need reasonably soon for a decent price, buy it and put it in storage. It is better than reaching a level where you have to spend hours hunting for a decent weapon or armor and end up paying too much for it! Also, you could put your elixir drops to good use by making your next level weapon really nice. I did this with a level 21 +3 STR spear that I purchased at level 17.
+ Quests will knock two birds with one stone: they give you XP per kill and they will give you XP when the quest is done. The money isn't bad either. It is win/win!
+ Everyone wants the best equipment for their level, so even the regular armor will sell for at least double the store price. Make sure your stall is always full!
+ Selling Elements will make you rich, but for that reason buying elements will make you poor
+ One star trade runs will net you AT MOST 60k with a camel, not including expenses. I do them for fun, not for money. If you start trading right at level 20, you run the risk of some powerful mobs attacking your pitifully slow camel/horse, or some asshat thief who thinks spawning his NPC's on you is great fun (seriously, a one star trade is almost worthless to a high level thief, why thieve it?). Angst ridden kids love making your one star trading a nightmare in this game.
+ Stall, stall, and stall some more. No danger of thieves and more money. Leave the game up while you sleep with your stall open.
Well, we've all been there. Down in the dumps, poor as hell with only a few thousand to your name. We've all.... Been poor

Newbie Mistakes for Making Money
These are the things you don't want to do. You'll end up worse than where you started.
+ Do NOT do Multistars, unless you have leet people in your union, to make money. In fact, I disapprove of overall trading unless you've been having low drops, and are over the level of 52(Thieves will reeeally have to work hard to pop you)
+ Do NOT Thieve(unless ur a high lvl--->70+). Thieving gets you low profit, unless you rob a huge trade. Don't do it.
- Don't grind whites. Just don't do it. You lose too much gold on pots, if you, by chance don't get a drop. ----->my opinion
- Don't scam. Don't ask why, or you shouldn't be on this forum.
- Don't buy gold.(unless u got the money 2 buy and have alot of visas(ccfer)) I extremely dislike the buying and selling of other people's efforts.
- Don't beg. Waste of time. People hate you. You won't get gold.(Waste. Of. Time)!!!!
These are the main mistakes people make, which lead them to poorness.

My Recconmandations for makin' MONEY $$
- Grind greens. At my level(60) I can pick up more gold in one grind trip than pots cost me(around 240k). And if you get an item drop, you get even more profit. Green is the color of money, so grind them!!!
- Take out a small loan(from ur guild mates,freinds,anyone who can lend u some gold), enough to get pots for 3-4 grind runs. Make sure you repay it, though.
- Buy low, sell high. This is most easily accomplished with elixers, since they usually have a 'standard' price. Buy them cheaply, and sell them at the average price. FYI: Prot Elix: 50-60k, Weap Elix: 250k, Acc Elix: 35k. (these are my server's prices)
If you know the market well, you can do it with equips, and a LOT more profit can be gained that way.
- Disjoint things for elements, and sell them. The average market price ATM is about 1k per. Sell them lower than that, and you should be able to get a decent amount of customers.
-use elements 2 make stones it will get u alot of money!!
- Action gets you out of poverty, not words. Do not sit there and feel sorry that you're poor. Go out, and get some gold, and in an honorable fashion. Grind greens, resell items, don't scam, disjoint, anything that you think can get you profit as long as its nothing dishonorable.
I hope this guide helps you fellow players down in your dumps almost ready to beg at another's feet to get back up and become a regular member of sroSociety, one that won't grovel, and one that can afford to buy gear without loans.
+K if i help u
