It seems as everyone on Gaia is rich.....

[Kitty Zombie]

I'm not rich. I just hoard. ninja

[DC-Chan]

I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm not wealthy, and I don't think I ever will be.

Exchanger friends make me feel bad about my worth. emo

[Quicktrigger]

Gold aint everything on this site...I used to spend hours fishing, making gold to buy better fishing gear. I've always felt like there was something better I could do with my avi...something I could improve on it, and that I needed more money...Well, here I stand today at just under 6M in items and I still feel broke all the time.

[Stained Glass Window]

Hoarding a mess of EI's is a pretty great way to make gold.
It's also a great way to lose it.
I guess you have to predict which will be profitable and which will sink.
You also have to predict when to buy them and when to sell them.

My timing sucks though, so I mostly end up losing gold. gonk

[.M i s a k i - c h i.]

Hoarding and vending worked for me. But I don't think I'm that wealthy compared to some people >w<!! It doesn't matter though as I love my wardrobe and I love to play dress-ups. X3

[Veled]

Most of my money was from questing and vending a whole lot in 2005 / 2006. (I'm an '04 girl.)

Since then I've just coasted on the fat thereof and bought a few cash items.

If you consider approximately 5-6mil wealthy, then about two years.

[Blaze the Fire Dragon]

In gold I'm poor with 35K, In items I am rich, I don't know how much I'm worth but I know I have a good amount.

[Starkeyy]

I've been playing 5 and a half years ish and while some think i'm rich, i know many out other would laugh at my 'value' .
Honestly I dont care.
I have all the items I want (unless they start unleashing more edmund related items >.> )
I do however, miss the enjoyment of questing. sweatdrop

[Genea]

Six months on Gaia and I obtained my first 03 (OMG hat). That was when I first felt wealthy here. ;3

[Yoigoshi]

5 years.

How? I joined a long time ago, bought a bunch of DIs, came back and sold them for millions. xd

B-b-but! I'm not really wealthy, to be honest. I have a lot of nice items, but I don't like to sell them, so I'm usually poor and stuck booty grabbing my a** off trying to attain the things I want. Plus, I suck at investing.

[Graceful Sympathy]

Eh, I don't know.
Compared to all my friends i'm a noob, but I don't really worry about it to much. But it took me 1 year and a few months to get where I am today...and still counting smile

[Miss Pixi]

being wealthy is but a dream mrgreen

[Riyo Ongaku]

I didn't have anything for the first two years I was on here. I was always on hiatus so I didn't care.

I was probably first considered "rich" by anyone a few months after getting really active. I had finished a CoCo quest (it was dirt cheap, but noobs think that like 50k is rich) and had bought a few letters. XD

I don't think I'm rich though. ._. I mean...I can't afford most of the items I want, and while I may have 1.5mil pure on me now it's for this quest so it's like having no gold at all.
