Phase 3: Profit !

I wanted to add a quick note, then start back with the original topics that I started.  I am sorry for the absence.  A cascade of things happened to prevent me from being able to post like I would have liked too. I will start at the beginning.

Step 1 – The OMG: I normally write posts while I am on a plane traveling from one locale to another.  I have made plenty of trips since my last post, but I had one major problem.  That’s step one if I remember…Admit you have a problem.  Well, here goes…My MacBook Air that I travel and run my WoW Gold Making business with died due to a complete SSD failure.  It was not recoverable and I lost all of the WoWEcon posts that I had drafted along with the outline of the program.  Needless to say, between my travels and having to drop it off for warrantee work.  It took longer than I would have like to get back up and running.

Step 2 -  The rehab:After download 4.1 my add-ons (many thanks to TSM), and setting up everything again, I am left with run a the mill subjects that were news to me, but already posted on many of the other sites.  I am finally back to where I want to be.  Yesterday, was an easy 11K Friday without much of a time investment.  I have mainly been focused on Glyphs, Enchants, a bit of Jewelcrafting and Blacksmithing (mainly belts and spikes).  I noticed that I am way more low key.  I haven’t cancelled and reposted my glyphs since the break.  Don’t get me wrong.  I love having 300K in liquid gold, but I am lacking something to spend it on.

Step 3 –  The challenge: A friend of mine is on another server with 10 toons from 80 to 85.  However, he is struggling to have much in the way of gold, generally between 6 and 15k.  He needs help, his mounts are slow, dailies are too repetitive. What is a guy to do?   Well, I started a DK on his server.  Holy Cow, Batman!  It looks amazing.  Almost every profession has a ton of profit possibilities.  It is way less competitive than mine.  So look for updates on my status.  I am planning on starting off with Inscription.  It is easily the best early grind profession.  I haven’t had much luck with making anything else profitable at low levels.  Well, stayed tuned.  I just left the starter area with about 10g to my name on the server.  I also need to level another toon in my main group to get Tailoring (my last profession to max).  BigJimm has kept me out of the bag market for a while with his…hmmm…how to say it kindly….bitchin’..no…hatred…no….waffling.  Miss you Jimm.  I hope the move went well.

Cheers!  actually I prefer skål, but it’s not quite as well known.
