Money Saving... help!!

[angra]

ok guys I realist that this is a very nooby thing to ask especially considering im lv 92 but I just can't seem to save my money. whenever I fish a bunch of sharks I sell them and spend all the money :| and I never buy anything useful. I was just wondering If you guys had any advice so I don't keep spending all my money?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

thanks guys :thumbup:

Willpower. When you sell your stuff, drop it off at the GE and immediately leave. Don't browse, collect through a bank.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remove the temptation and it won't be able to, well, tempt you.

What did you spend money on?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Only buy armor/weapon that you are going to use (Whip, Godsword, etc).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you cannot afford these mentioned items, then consider it a goal and start saving up

[Kellis]

Also, if you bought something that you don't need, sell it! No reason to keep it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you are buying something, stop to consider if you REALLY need it. Like really.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By the way, these tips are really good when it comes to money in real life, too! :thumbsup:

I have roughly only 3M alltogether, when I should have more but blew alot of my money on ice bursts and construction :|

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and thanks for the advice kellis, should I fish more bulk of sharks to get more cash in a trip?

[Kellis]

Yep. Since the GE is the best place to watch your money trickle away, try to go there as little as possible. If you can dump 2x the number of sharks only half the usual time, then you're less likely to go spending.

are sharks really the best way to go when you are 77 fishing?

 

 

 

i would probably do monks for a few more levels...

Whether you waste money is totally your opinion. You obviously got a lot of construction experience, which translates to a better house for parties, and/or more useful functions such as portals.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't consider ice bursts a waste if used efficiently. For instance, it is a waste (imo) to ice burst chickens, where you could ice burst rock lobsters, which would not be a waste at all.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tips on saving money: melee saves money when compared to magic if you are talking about combat. Buying a weapon will pay for itself eventually, whereas you have to continually buy/make runes for magic. Same with range, you need to buy/make arrows.

Yes very true warriormonk thanks :)

With 3M you could have a good go at this.

Only buy stuff you need. Sure it's nice to have Karils, but black dragonhide works just as well. Cannon's speed through some slayer tasks, but it isn't essential. Red Chin's net you loadsa range XP, but you can still get that XP slower with a rune crossbow...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Set yourself a buffer which you won't go under (mines 10mil) and if you go under it, stop and make some money. This buffer should ideally cover you for a death, for example if I died, I'd estimate my buy-back costs at approx 10 mil.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Plan what you want to achieve and budget accordingly. For example I'm currently getting 80 smithing, I've swung it so I profit slightly but I knew from the offset the 5 mil I was spending on supplies would be back eventually, with an extra 1.5mil.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Have a guaranteed way to make money. For me runecrafting is a great money maker, but it is boring. I have 45k pure essence in bank, soley for making money which I've "written off". Therefore whenever I need some cash I can runecraft and have that cash as profit.

I would kill green dragons in the chaos tunnels. I make about 120k in ~30 minutes there with worse stats.
