Ever wanted to raise a tradeskill but found you don't have enough money to do it? Well, I've found out something that will help you get money and raise your tradeskills.
Money: How to get it
--------------------
Ok, to get money for items for tradeskills or just for items, there are two main places where you will get loads of money!
The first place is Rathe Mountains, the giants there drop a lot of platinum and sometimes drop things that sell for some good money. Just stay there for about an hour and you'll have around 1k or more. Also, since the Frogloks moved in, the giants were moved. Look on the map for Thomas, the Paladin GM. The giants are around there, just be sure not to run into the GM and take out any Orc Priests around there because they will heal those giants.
The next place is Dulak's Harbor. The mobs there drop plenty of jewels and other items that sell for good platinum. The main items you want for money are the Mithril Amulets which sell for about 98 platinum each, you may want to pick up the Pearl Necklaces too because they sell for 4 plat each. Shamans can also pick up the meat that the mobs drop for potions that they can sell. There are also named mobs. You can't sell the items for big money unless it's really good but you can still make a couple hundred if people decide to twink their alts.
Tradeskills
----------
For tradeskills, use the above methods to get money for supplies or you can just go kill stuff. Tailoring: Kills bears, Rockhoppers, etc for hides, fletchers can kill stuff to drop the bow staves and so on. Now, unless the items are really good or you really need them, sell them to merchants. Like fletchers, sell your arrows back if you don't need them. At my skill, I make Class 1 Steel Hooked Arrows. They cost me about 58 plat to make and if I make about 85-100 arrows, they sell back for about 60 or so plat.
How to keep your money
------------------------
You see a shiny new sword you want but you love to go spend all of your money on other things? Heres how you save that money:
1. Only buy things if you need them, save that money for something else.
2. Look for useless items just rotting away in your bank. Sell them to people or merchants.
3. Snatch some money from an alt or two. If they have any money, place it in the shared bank and use that.
4. Buy stuff in the bazzar that's cheap but not too cheap and re-sell it for more.

That's what I've found to be helpful. Enjoy =)
