Hello everyone. First off I just wanted to say that these methods worked especially well for me due to my "good" negotiation skills , patience and insight into what items and stocks would make me money. I have achieved about 10billion roughly in stocks, items and cash since Christmas 2014 when I restarted playing. So It took maybe 2 months of being a noob , slutting and reviving before I could trade.
2022 Note and slowly updating this: Networth is now 500b plus, most of these fundamentals are noted below and have helped me get here :) I grinded doing all of the below, so I was once a poor poor soul like you might be now, so do not stress! Its a marathon not a sprint!
1) Actually making your first few million
- Now for any level or player of any amount of cash, you can reach where I have gotten in a mere few months.
- Selling Losses: I suggest slutting for 200-300k. "Selling Losses" is the term given when a player attacks another player and purposely loses for cash. All you need is some meds (morphine, blood bags, faks/sfaks) . 3 losses should supply a xanax(850k) which can fund another 10 attacks (2-3m profit). This works out at about 250-350k per 25 energy. That's 1 mil for a full bar of energy unless your a Donater with 150 energy. Note some people run loss agencies which can make this process even easier/more profitable, check the Attacking forum!
- Reviving: To revive people you need to get to the highest rank in the medical starter job. Once you reach there you can revive people in hospital for money ( if they consent to it) . People usually pay 1 million per revive.
- Join a salutary 10 faction to reduce the cost of reviving from 75 energy to 25. This means reviving is more profitable than Selling Losses per 25e.
- If you don't want to waste your energy though it can be a bit harder to earn enough cash to trade for a while . Buying beer from Bits N' Bobs is a good way to make 70k every day when they restock .
- Travelling: At level 15 you can start travelling in the travel agency. If you rent or buy a PI with an airstrip you can reduce the flight times and increase your luggage capacity. Travelling is a great way to make 1-3 million a trip depending on where you travel. If you are traveling during the day and are active I recommend travelling to the UK to buy heathers. Always check the flower threads in forums which keep the stocks of country items updated.
- I recommend Selling Losses or Reviving ( if you have the work stats ) until you reach 100mil ish. At 100 mil-ish i began to trade and delve in the stock market ( Some passive blocks like LSC BB are quite good ROI )
2) Trading:
- Tradings main principle is buy low and sell higher. In the current market you should strive to buy items that are desirable all the time and sell for nice profit. (( Feathery Hotel Coupons, Energy Drinks, Donater Packs & Erotic DVDs are just a few).
- To trade you need people to know you are actually buying something . This means you need to advertise.
Advertising: You can advertise in the newspapers classified ads for 250k per ad or for free with MSG BB.
You can make an ad and place it in trade chat. E.G: "Buying FHCs for 12.6million chat me or set trade". Just follow the trade rules.
You can make a thread in the "trading posts" forum.
- Joining a faction to make contacts can be very useful if you look to be a successful trader. Contacts are key.
- Purchasing a bazaar in the points store for 250 points is necessary for you to sell your items. This is where anyone can buy your items. Once they buy your items you are given the cash straight away . Some people will then attempt to mug you after . Here are a few ways to prevent that ..
- Mug prevention: You can Attack someone and lose to give yourself 10-20 minutes of safe hospital time. Make sure to have the "anyone can revive you " setting turned off.
- You can travel abroad to another country (level 15s +) . You will be safe for the duration of the flight until you land. You should then be ready to fly back ASAP before the locals mug you!
- You can take the wrong blood type and be self hospitalised. You need the blood education done though.
- You can have a friend hospitalise you while you sell items in your bazaar or in a trade so you are safe from. When people buy the items from your bazaar you can set up a ghost trade ( a trade where you store money for 6 hours with a friend so nobody can mug you) so when you get out of hospital you are safe from muggings. Just be careful to remember to deposit that money somewhere .
- 2019 - Mug protection no longer works, has changed so that if one is mugged for 100m, that amount is safe. But if you deposit that money or gain more than that that is muggable!
3) Stock Market
- Stocks 3.0 released so no longer relevant. Buy low, watch it go lower. f**k you Ched
Just stopping here to save! Company ranking and selling up next!
Please comment if it helped!
Just comment if you have any areas you are interested in making cash in and maybe I'll help!
