I see a lot of begging and gift posts, and a few guides, but those are more for "regular" methods of making money. I'm curious about some of the more creative ways people have tried (whether successful or not), as well as potentially ideas people have had but haven't engaged in due to lack of capital/network/time/etc. that they would be willing to share. Lets make it fun and do 1 thing you've tried, the result, and 1 idea you have. Posting goals is okay (I'm very goal oriented and use it to give drive towards things), tipping is okay, but let's make this about the actual ideas and not about looking for handouts.
Tried - Flipping a faction. Success rate 100% (1 attempt, week long endeavor).
Profit - Approximately 1100% ROI
Verdict - Successful but very time consuming
Idea - Staffing agency
Description - Outsource staffing needs for companies/factions looking for recruits. The more refined and specific the requirements, the more expensive the role is to fill.
Expected costs - Time only (subscriber status to increase efficiency in searches)
Risk factor - Minimal. Occasional bounties from approaching potentially grumpy people.
Expected ROI - Virtually 100% Profit, as any expenses would be extremely marginal.
Current goals - Stock Blocks to support my company
