Strapped for cash and need some gear.Follow

Well, I've come across a recent problem: I'm poor.
Well, its not really recent but I can't say that I want it to go on, I want to have a decent amount of money for backup things, maybe be able to carry a stack of Fish Mithkabobs with me, be able to buy things that are cheaper than AH from a passing PC's bazaar. Mind helping me out? I've tried camping Spipi a couple times (not much else I can camp and survive against for an OK profit). I'm a 35 Paladin with up-to-date equipment but I wanted to hear some advice on making money.
Woodworking: 10, I'm going to check some of the Crafting threads to get this up.
NM's Camped: Spipi 1/2 (Its verrrrry boring).
Things I've Farmed: Air Elementals in La Theine, usually get 10-12k every hour and a half depending on the weather coniditions.

So, if you can help me out with any way to make money please do, just things I could farm and get a reasonable amount of cash from without having to rest after every fight, my Thief is level 16 so TH is on hand. I also hear that gardening is a good way to make money but I'm still a little foggy on how it works, if you could confirm//dispel this statement please do ^^.

Thanks

i usually save all my conquest points and buy equips when bastok is in first and just sell those.

farm beehive chips - 3k a stack
farm elementals in taronghi, highlands or plateu
crafting - i have lvl 47 woodcraft so i try to HQ wands
do garrisons if you wana make money quick. i got garrison boots last time i did one and sold them for 110k

some things i can think of right now..

Fishing is a great source of income but like that guide sais you don't see money right away it takes time, but very worth it. So be patient.

Judging by my experiences, Garrisons are anything but *quick*. It requires a huge amount of recruiting and planning. I've done multi-battle Garrison runs on two separate occasions now, and it's only fun if you have a group of people who already know each other and communicate well, and are time-committed. Nothing sucks more than spending five hours recruiting and directing a garrison only to have three people quit after the first one doesn't go perfectly, or because "I only have 30 minutes left!" or some BS.

I'd have to say it's probably harder than organizing a Dynamis run with up to 64 people versus only 18. At least in Dynamis, you'll have *only* people who have put in time to be Lv. 60 or higher (IE - fewer n00bs), and there's no equipment restrictions (IE - no need to buy equipment to conform to a level cap). Plus, with Dynamis, everyone has a financial stake in the success.
