    People like jbuks, or oyster, how do they get all that money? I work my butt off every time I'm on, and if I'm lucky, I make 2k. How in the world do they do that? Thanks for any feedback, especially from tycoon +. Thanks!

    Theres various ways of making money on this server and it all depends on what you like to do.
    If you like to farm, then buy perms to a 200x200 farm, and farm.
    If you like mining, stay active in the mining world, and mine.
    If you like to playing lotto, play lotto.
    If your lazy like me, and don't like to earn your money, then sell donation features and giftcards.
    Do whatever you feel most confortable with, and money will be coming in.

    Get a melon sword and farm hours on end and you'll be rich in a matter of days or even one day, i made like 50k in 1 day from farming melons and that was only in like 3 hours, but you got some people that will farm 10-15 hours non stop.

    Here's a secret!
    First, numb yourself so you don't bore yourself to death.
    Then, farm. The end

    Yeah, I am curious as to how all "those people" get tons and tons of money...but i think when it comes right down to it, there are only 2 ways.

    -Lottery
    -Selling donations/giftcards.

    And then...i suppose there are those people who do what phip said, farm farm farm farm farm...




    There's no "fun" way to earn money :(


    That's why people like me barely have any money :p

    I've stopped playing lotto and I farm for 1 hour and mine for 2 hours. I make 35k a day or so. (2 days, 70k)

    So, it's easy to get money, it just takes time. I'm sure jbuks and oyster spent a long time getting that much money.

    A lot of things in ECC are money from hardwork paying off. Example: I own a 200x200 2 floor what farm. I sell perms to it. For 12k. That's basically instant money with little effort now, but, it took a lot of effort to get there.

    Get yourself Mayor, with a good plan for your town you can make some decent money, and if you come up with your own original company idea that would be another bonus. If you want to create a company that someone already has try to undercut their prices and you will steal their customers. *cough cough* I plan on doing this soon my self. :p
