Furtive Father Winter
Anyone who has spent any time with me knows that I’m a very giving sort of guy. (Editor’s Note: That is not entirely accurate. He always asks for separate checks, and will stick someone else with the extra appetizer that he ordered.) On my blog I try to offer tips for classes and gold making. In my various guild(s) I often donate gold, mats, and crafted items. Even my Battle Pets are fed a constant diet of battles. (Editor’s Note: Okay maybe we stand corrected.) So you see, my awesomeness is surpassed only by my modesty. (Editor’s Note: And boom goes the dynamite.)

Becoming Paris Hilton Rich
Paris Hilton doesn’t use a bronzer when she tans. She uses a golder.
Make 12,500 gold in an HOUR! Can you believe it?
Well, you shouldn’t.
Look on Youtube for WoW Gold Guides and you’ll find more positive results that Paris Hilton’s STD test. Each video makes quite impressive claims of holding the secret to making thousands of gold per hour. And who doesn’t like making money, am I right? Bling bling and all that.
Here’s where your bubble takes a bursting. The good news is that each video is right. The bad news is that each video is also wrong. I know, confusing. It’s a contrast of terms, like Paris Hilton reading anything that doesn’t have pictures.
Fascinating. Please tell me more.
It doesn’t matter which vid you peep, the content boils down to the same conclusion. The cha-ching isn’t a guaranteed amount, calculated by how much gold drops in the zone/instance. No, the big money comes from selling various drops on the Auction House. Theoretically speaking, you could make the gold the videos claim if the drops sell for what they say. But this is the Auction House we’re talking about. WoW Economics 101 states that each server economy is different. What sells for thousands on one server, sells for hundreds on another.
Here’s a prime example.
