Intro: Bouncing

What are you drinking?

Iron Man and Samdok!

Lessah is a Noob!

Double Trouble Hireling watch!
Favorite All Time Hireling Thus Far, Samuel Merik Level 9 Cleric and Tonya Brightstone, Level 12 Favored Soul. Hire these guys, they are amazeballs!
Things that make you go hmmmmm Baudry Cartamon. Why is your warehouse filthy? What are you shipping? Did you know you have kobold poo everywhere and dead bodies on the floor? I am going to call the Board of Health! Don’t the Coinlords have rules and regulations in place to keep the public safe or is this like the water supply scandal all over again? I think he is shipping empty boxes. People buy those?

Tweets! Where you tell us your price gouging secrets, your secret shame and your personal limits.

Group Discussion, Money in Stormreach and you!

Where is all your money going?
How do you make money when you are an OCD crafter and break everything down?

Heavy Fort Sapphire story
The daily Routine, we all have one, what is yours?

How do you make money fast? I don’t want to be rich, I want to be ridiculous-ly wealthy. Let’s make that happen!
How stupid do you think I am Stormreach? It’s like everyone is trying to sell their loot to the five guys in the game who have all the money. What about me? What about the little guy!

Examples:

Bloodstone. It’s also a gem. Stop selling it like it’s a real thing and please for the love of God, people stop buying it and getting taken for a ride!
People are selling collectibles at prices no one would ever pay. “What what what… are you doing?”
Ingredients. You people are greedy! 5,000 plat for 10 greater earth essences? Really? Really?? That’s 500 plat each, why don’t you just stick a gun in my face?

What about long term Investments and 401K?

Is farming loot to sell on the AH that rewarding? Do you do it as a happy accident or deliberately?

Collectibles of Note. Watch out for these guys!

All Soarwoods! (resist fire 30 pots)
Powdered blood (Crafting and Heroism x15 minutes pots)
Research Diaries (crafting item, you need em when you need em! Also Haste Level 5 pots!)
Fragrant Drowshoods 40K plat on Thelanis
Vials of Pure money (Not as cool as they once were!)
Silver Flame Hymnals (hit or miss, I see one on Thelanis for 800 plat…) and Tomes of the Prophecies of Khyber, still a good bet!
Unbound shards and shards of potential are money makers for crafters (like me!) Just remember fair market value when shopping for ingredients I won’t pay over 50-75 plat each. If you are paying more than that, you are getting robbed and if you are charging more than that. DON’T. What, what what, are you doing? Look at your life, look at your choices!
