How rich are you?

Any experienced fisher knows that its much harder to get money off fishing thanks to fishing nerfs(thanks alot botters you killed it for everyone). Especially post fishing patch of the new system, legendary fish is easier to catch, my friend can get noble's laides really easily at low skill. Everyone knows that without another craft lvled high to actually use the fish, its useless to just fish and get anything into the millions, that and you hit fatigue level fast. Unless you fished for a long time/bot i dont see how anyone can get millions off of this.

BCNM requires leveling and alot of seals. Even then i havent gotten that much gil, the most gil you can get is through BC60s anyway. Unless you do ENM but those are not BCNMs.

Begging? People still give gil to beggers these days? O_o

I don't see how you could make 15 million from just fishing and BCNM's. >.>; Expecially if you can't do BCNM60's. Even the ENM's I've seen require you to finish a fair few CoP missions to access the area, and they are level 40.

Hmm, and I don't think if you beg for gil in Jeuno, someone's going to hand over 15 million gil - I wouldn't even hand over 1000 gil.

I did a lot mor ethan that. I also got into food crafting,cloth craft.alchemy,and blacksmithing. It took a looooong time until I got to a point were making gil game easy adn then I had to make more gil than I was losing. That part wasn't easy. But here the point. Why should I give a damn what a bunch of idiot skeptics think?

Idiot skeptics? That's not very nice, Omecle and lionx may be Taru Taru porn stars, but they're not idiots.

We are skeptical. Why? Because 23 million is a lot of money. Even 15 million is quite a stash.

Maybe I should be more clear, it isn't just a lot of gil, it's a HELLUVA lot of gil. In fact, I'd go as far as saying that I know less than a handful of people who have that kind of (legitimate) gil.

But you're right, you really shouldn't care what we think, this is only an internet forum afterall. But we really have no reason to believe you. You may have 15 million, you may not. Who cares?

Well ok i take it back Omecle isn't an idiot....

I don't think saying you have 23,000,000 G and then later saying you only have 15,000,000 G does much for your credibility. If you've lied once, why should we believe you a second time?

EDIT: By the way, I'm down to 100k, but I've got at least 700,000 G in all the equipment I carry at any given time. I'd say that's not too bad of an investment.

Well, at any given time, I usually have around 10k. The most i've ever had is 75k. I'm poor. ._.

I'm gonna write a gil making guide.

50 ways to get rich on vana'diel.

I like to see it, and i like to see how long before its no longer viable to get money the way you listed D: Especially the big bang ones, not the consistant ones like Crystals.

Bah my numbah one rule is don;t use the auction house unless your oging to make cash literally lol.There are players with valuable stuff and they put it up at the AH for less than what its worth or it never sells lol.Numbah two rule is. Do lots and lots of networking.

I started a crafting LS. Then we just integrated with another LS. Then some of them branched off and formed other LS's and some of those people formed crafting LS.

Anyway networking is the most important thing if you want to make a lot of gil. ITs a slow process lol never a boom lol.

i have 1 mill

yeah it took me awhile to get to 1 mil.But then I took a bunch of risk literally. In the markets especially jeuno's AH. I would buy then sell and one time too many people sold so i bought it all then I sold it back double price.

So what kind of game are you playing? O.o; First you say never to use the AH unless you know you are going to make a lot of gil. Then you say it's good to take risks - which is defenatly not a garanteed gil maker.

It seems all your ways to get gil, that you've explained to us, either contradict itself or just doesn't seem like a viable way of doing things at all. I am sorry if I sound like an ass for this, but you really need to either speak properly about it and not make up stuff, or you can give us information on what you really do for gil - else there is no way to believe you have actually made 23 million gil, or should I say 15 million gil, which one is it now?

Dude, just post a screenshot.

393,093gil in pocket
1.32M selling on AH currently
4M+ in equipment
2Xgrace rings, 2Xsniper rings, 2Xviking axes, corsair's knife, lightningbow+1, minuet earring, etc
that alone i paid 4.1M for, and probably have another 2M in items ~50-100k each like life belt, arbalest+1, etc
also have empress hairpin and bounding boots though those are free =)
and another 1M in food and nin tools
also have bonecraft @ 53 and am 1500 short of bone specs =)
