Disclaimer- Prices may vary.

Welcome to my guide! As I have seen countless new threads about people asking for money, I have decided to make this short guide. If I was rich, I would just give everyone 1m to start or restart their Runescape careers, however only about the first 20 people would get. So, try this instead. Have fun reading my guide and let me know how it's working!

First off, depending on how much money you have, you can skip to whatever money making method you want. Usually the more money you have to invest, the more money you will get out of it.

Also, SKILLING. This guide will not involve skilling, but may involve already having a certain skill. One way of making money is to just choose a skill and take it all the way to 99, banking whatever you're getting. This, however, is usually much slower and boring than most other money making methods which usually require no skills anyways.

If you have ABSOLUTELY NO MONEY, start here.

------------------------------

Here is how to make you're first 20k. The stronghold of security monsters will attack you, so I recommend doing the player safety one first, going to the grand exchange and buying some food, and then doing the stronghold. Both of these will give you 10k, as well as a nice set of gloves, boots, and two XP lamps worth 500xp each.

------------------------------

After getting your first 20k, teleport back to Lumbridge and go to the fishing shop. Buy 1000 feathers there which will cost you a little over 7k. Also, go to Port Sarim and get another 1k feathers, at the same price. Then, bring them to the Grand exchange and sell them for 44-50k

------------------------------

Now, head back to Port Sarim fishing shop and run harpoons! There is a bank deposit box pretty close, so just buy 28 of them and bank them, over and over. They cost about 50gp each, so you should be able to spend all you're money and get 1000 of them. Now, bring them to the Grand Exchange and sell them for 275,000 gp!!!!!! [ based on current GE prices ]

Here is a color coded map, made personally by me, with help from my favorite program... PAINT!

Red = Grand Exchange
Blue = Stronghold of security
Green = Stronghold of player safety
White = Lumbridge fishing shop
Pink = Port Sarim fishing shop
Yellow = Port Sarim bank deposit box
Brown = house with Sir Vant in the basement

------------------------------

Ummm... time to go to bed! I'll continue on this guide tomorrow, maybe.

20m will buy you 6k+ hides.

Red Dragonhide = 3172
Red dragon leather = 3799

3799 - 3172 = 627 profit per hide.

627 - 20(tanning) = 607

607 x 6000 = $3642000

It takes approximately an hour to tan 2000 hides, so in three hours you're making an over three million gp profit. However, I usually get bored pretty quick, and you won't want to tan any more hides after three hours(trust me), so you could go fishing(:

Well you could do cowhides, it's just a lot less money per hour. Chopping yews with your 92wc wouldn't be bad either.

I'll be having a membership giveaway sometime next month too.
