How to Make Gold

How to Make Gold

OK. So you want to learn how to make gold. If you don't have gold, the honest truth is, you will not enjoy playing this game as much as you could. Gold is what makes things go around in World of Warcraft. If you go into the game with the mentality that you'll never be rich, guess what? You'll spend your time broke. Like I said in my first post, playing this game as an individual with no money is just silly. Think about it. People pay money to play a game where they constantly struggle to get by and then feel like a failure. Yeah. That sounds like fun. If you are happy being a lowly grunt, well, I just don't get you to be honest.

Playing World of Warcraft is quite a bit like life in the real world in some ways. On one hand, you will have people who are happy to complain about their lot in life and then do nothing about it. Know anyone like that? On the other, you will have people who look for the best ways to capitalize on every opportunity. These people also tend to be able to see opportunities better than most because they have the right mind set. They can also see the value of things in the longer term instead of just what is right in front of them.

There are a lot of very cool strategies that can be used in this game, but for right now, let's just talk about going to the Auction House. Have you ever checked out eBay? If you take the time to look at some of the goofy stuff that sells on there for outrageous prices, you know that buying and selling at auctions is a game in itself. In World of Warcraft, you will want to use some eBay type strategies. It will keep boiling dow to this: Buy low and sell high. That makes sense, doesn't it? Just like people go out and buy other people's cast off stuff at estate and garage sales and then sell it for big bucks on eBay, you can learn to do the same thing playing WoW.

If you are just buying and selling things for the same price, well it's about comparable to kissing your sister. You completed the transaction, but it's just not the same as actually getting something done. OK, that didn't sound right, but you get the idea.

If you are taking this slow and easy, I'd recommend doing a little observing of the auctions to see what you can learn. I'll post more about that coming up. If you can't wait for my schedule to allow that, I'd recommend checking out the How to Make Gold site. There is some good info there and some reviews of how to make gold guides that weed out the junk that is floating around the internet. Stop back soon.
