Make A Thousand Gold at Level 5
I’m not what you would call a professional gold maker in the World of Warcraft. I don’t study the ebb and flow of the game’s Auction House, keep track of posters, or know the Auctioneers by their given names (except for my girl Naxxremis who is obviously way into me). However, I do like to make gold. It helps fund professions, and at higher levels it helps to cover things like gems, equipment enhancement, food/flasks, and repair bills. Nothing too frivolous mind you. Just the essentials.
But people seem to have this impression that you need to be 85 to really start making gold. That’s not true. I’ve made a thousand gold on a level five bank alt, and I didn’t have to manhandle Auctioneer to do it. I have a SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) that I use whenever I venture out to a new server and have no resources (aka Sugar Daddy) to draw from.
The first thing I do when I go to a new server is establish my Bank alt. He is the first one to set foot to earth, unleashed upon Azeroth with only the clothes on his back and maybe a weapon in hand. These will most likely not last long.

Imagine sitting in a large stadium with, oh say fifty thousand people. Each of you have a digital stopwatch, and you’re all looking at the scoreboard as it counts down to zero. When the digits come up 0:00, a siren blares and everybody hits the start button on their stopwatch. They then immediately hit stop. As fast as you click, it’s not really instantaneous. You look down at your display and you see a fraction of a second showing on the screen, maybe a tenth of a second if you were really on the ball.
Now imagine that your car tires are going to be slashed to ribbons in the parking lot unless you have one of the four thousand fastest times. Forty-six thousand people are going to be very disappointed, and it all comes down to a fraction of a second.
