Become Top of the Rich List on Runescape

Helpful hints on how to get money on runescape.

To become really rich on Runescape can be a bit of a gamble but if you are desperately in need of a lot of money, the best way to do it is to buy and sell things. To be able to buy and sell things then all you have to do is find a person who obtains good merchandise and try and buy it off him. If he refuses then you can kill him and get it but people would feel a bit uneasy about buying items off a murderer.

You don't have to buy and sell things to get rich. There are plenty of other ways that you van do it. If you go down into some of the mines then you can mine larges quantities of rare, expensive and unique resources that people will pay a lot to have. If you do this Then you should get quite a bit of money. This trick usually works if you pick a good mine to mine in and there is enough mining space for everyone to mine in. Before you try this make sure that you have a pick axe that you can use to mine with. Otherwise it is very difficult to mine things.

One more final way to get quite rich on it is to go into the wilderness and kill everyone around you, then you can take the money that they had on them. This may seem easy but if you kill lots of people, lots more people will challenge you and if you loose, then you will loose all of your currently owned money.

These three ways make moneymaking on Runescape pretty simple and they all work. If you are ever out of money, then use these tips to get some more.

hey im a lvl 75 member and one of the best ways to make money is (if you finished preist and peril) buy raw chicken! i no it sounds noobish but its not think for a minute you buy raw chicken at canfis for 9 gp each and sell at g. e. for 70 gp each thats alot for money.9k spent on chicken in canfis sells for 70k in g. e. so if you get 90k and spend it on raw chicken in canfis you get 700K!!!!!now i know what you are thinking. who would like to buy raw chicken...... 2 words summoning noobs they need raw chicken to get experience for dreadfowl pouches so if you are in world 2 or one of the members trading worlds, you should sell them in 5 minutes or less. made buy runescape member pie i good. i will make more tips. look for my next one the name will always be the same ..pie i good money makeing tips.. for my next one i recemend 200k or more:)
#34 by pie i good money making tips, Jul 16, 2008
hi again im pie i good as i said before im a lvl 75 runescape member.for this one i recemend 200k or more. ok this money making guide will be about larupia hats.this one is good because u get alot of money.ok now go to G. E. and buy 150k worth of larupia fur,WARNING DO NOT BUY TATTY FUR THIS WILL RUIN YOUR MONEY MAKING. ok once you have 150k worth of larupia fur take 50k and 27 larupia furs with you and go south-east of the eastern bank in varrok and go to the fancy dress shop TALK NOT TRADE the owner and keep talking untill one of the choices are something about hunting fur. click on that.now make larupia hats. when you do that go to the eastern bank and store larupia hat and take 27 furs out (never put your money back in) and go to the fancy dress sshop and do that again. keep on doing this untill all you larupia furs are hats. sell hats in g. e. so larupia furs are about 1.3k each and you buy 150k worth of them thats about 115 of them make them in larupia hats and larupia hats are worth about 2.4k each thats 276k. now i know you are mad at me because i said ALOT of money but think for a minute how long did that take you 10 minutes at most.PEOPLE WH0O ARE MAD AT ME DONT YOU JUST MADE 100K IN 10 MINUTES THATS 600K IN A HOUR DO 1HOUR A DAY FOR A WEEK THATS 4.2 MILLION DOLLARS.i made these tips all by myself. and do you know the best part if you play for like 5hours a day and do what i told you to do for money in a week thats 21MILLION GP!!!!!!!!!!.ya thats what i thought i am a money making master

well I'm lvl 96 and dont train combat anymore. I have 20m with bandos, helm of neitnzot, blue phat, rune defender and whip. My method on making money is try cutting yews for awhile. Every ten minutes u get 12k gp. If anyone is mem fletch yew longs and alch them. Thats how I got my 99 Mage too. But my best method is runecrafting. I have a skillcape in it too. I am better than zezima in it. Those are my method

Ps look my name up if no one believed me my name is spencerkerr I can show u whut I got

#49 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
the way i do it as a non-member is buyin cowhides at grand exchange for about 95-120 gp , then tanning them for 1gp each to make leather which is about 159-175 gp. for example if u buy 1k hides, which is 100k about,then tan all of em,for 1k, then sell at grand exchange.BOOM!you just got 50k more gp!the whole process for 1k hides took me about 35min,for 2k hides 1 hour 10 min.so u can make 100k an hour!the best place to do dis is at Al-Kharid cause there is a bank right next to the tanning place.so far i made 700k!(september/28/2008/3:30pm-7:00pm)thats how much time it took
#50 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
p.s. im lvl 61 i got 16 mil now!)(
#51 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
for u lvl 85s and up who dont got mony still,you should kill cockroach soldiers.they drop rune scimys,rune chain bodies,alot of good stuff.if u r under lvl 70 and u wanna kill them 4 mony. i would bring some good food like lobsters or swordfish so u dont die.u can make up to 100k-150k an hour.it good mony
#52 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
for u beginner pplz,lvl 10 and down wit like 50gp-100gp,u should cut regular trees.REGULAR NOT WILLOW THOSE ONLY 19 GP!REGULAR TREES ABOUT 30 GP EACH!.and u can be any lvl wc!but the best place to do it is next to grand exchange.there is alot of regular trees there.(10 logs=300gp/100 logs=3,000gp/1,000 logs=30,000gp/10,000 logs=300,000gp.
#53 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
for u lvls 11-30s wit like 30k, i suggest u mine iron ores,need 15 mining,they sell for about 100gp and mine quick!1 full inventory is 2,800 gp!ull have 100k after about 50 loads!it may seem like alot of work but it worth it.
#54 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
for u lvls 30-50 wi about 200k,i think its time to kick up ur lvl in mining and get it to 30 so u can mine coal.coal sells for about 170gp.so after a load full thats about 4,700gp. so u can get 100k a bit quicker!the best place to mine this is the dwarven mine because it has like 10 coal rocks and falador is right up those stairs,(the stairs next to the mining guild)then there is a bank really close by.
#55 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
P.S. for the one about mining iron ore mine in same place btit got lvl 14-32 scorpians so find a frend to keep them out of the way while u mine.
#56 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
srry 4 da spelling mistakes in the last one(btit is sposed to be [but it]k)!
#57 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
for u lvls 50-70,id say do the cow hide trick i made, it going to work trust me.it going to take awhile though.so dont get mad at me.
#58 by Runescape millionair, Sep 29, 2008
for u last pplz lvl 70 and up you should cut yews once ur woodcutting lvl is 60 but it take a while to cut.yews r worth about 420gp each.so 1 full bag is about 12k!


please comment ant tell me if my non-members guide to being rich in runescape helped you at all.oh and if somtin goes wrong in one of the methods, just tell me k.
)( ih ope this guide helped u at all ty for reading it. ill probably post new ones soon

Hey hello ill take the lvl 107 but can i give u a lvl 42 guy his nake is Fearful777 and his pass is Zachh so ill take the lvl 107 plz i need anything im desperate
#62 by -.-, Nov 9, 2008
man already you got scamed magepwn456, rofl :P
seriously this guide is pretty usless (I'm talking about before the new update), buying low sell high? nope that won't make much money, if you gona spend 1hr trying to sell some certain items, which will only give you 100k profit, you might as well cut yew. Just train it up, or you could always fish lobsters. Those two cost 300+, you can easily make 120k per hour.
And kill for items? you rarely find people going to wildy if they are not expected to be jumped if they are in the wildy, they would be geared and will be at a low level part of it. Unless you're a pker yourself then expect this trick to be usless.
Why don't you kill something else? non-members can kill hill giants, as they cost 200ea+, while members can kill green dragons? Blue dragons have a few nice ranging spots. They can give you 100k+
#63 by -.-, Nov 9, 2008
Oh i forgot to mention they meant to give you 20k/100k per HALF HOUR, atleast for me it does.
Also NOW hill giant's big bones = 400gp each, so it'll be 40k per half hour.
Dragon hide and bones still cost the same as they use to, so 100k per half hour.
If you still not getting the right amount of money, then train one of your skills up.
none- members can always mine coals and iron, smelt them into steel bar. They cost 550ea before and 600ea now. around a hour you should have 120k-180k? you need rather high mining level of course. (Even if you buy the iron and coals NOW you still get 60k per hour?) Maybe even more as you accumalate more coals and irons than spending time running back and forth for the smelting.
fishing should be a alright amount right now. It was pretty good seeing as it use to cost only 200gp. Now it costs 350ea! it should take yah 4 hours (level 60 fishing for this speed... i think)(I can't be bothered spending this much time fishing) to make 1mil.
As for me, i don't recommend for none members to cut yews (Until level 75 woodcutting), takes too long. Member can always have a dragon axe, while we only have a rune axe. too slow for my liking. However it can give you around 60-100k per hour at 65 woodcutting. (I LIKE FAST MONEY IN 1 HOUR, THIS IS TOO SLOW).
Hunting in member is really good money. maybe about 500k per 10 minutes on the implings? maybe a few other ones can easily give you good money. Hunting is very easy to level, and very easy to understand. You don't have to walk back and forth to the bank for hunting, just set a trap and that's it. At low levels hunting doesn't give you much money :P, until 65?
Even alching yew bows in member world can get you a sum (need fletching of course, or if you have money to spare, you're free to buy the logs & runes). Not much, but counts as something :P.
Runecrafting law runes/ running nature runes can get you about 150-300k per hour? Law runes needs 54 runecrafting. I however love runecrafting, so i usually do this. nature runes running is 1 pure ess= 2 nature runes. If you have a friend who is level 91 runecrafting GET HIM TO RUN YOU! if not, you'll have to spend alot of time lining up at the nature running worlds.
there's many more ways to make money. It's up to the players to see what's best suited for their level.
#64 by your creator 456, Nov 18, 2008
a good way to make money is fishing,cuttingyews,mining pure essence,and d bones,or you can also fletch fletching is a good way to make money for noobs.btw 1k pure essence=156k idk about yews i think about 426k. well there you go u.nubs
#65 by pk dragonx2, Dec 1, 2008
