Well just look at prices and see what things are selling for and if you find something cheap that could be a good profit buy it. Also items people get from events could be a good profit later.

Well there isn't really a specific amount of starting money, however with 5m or something your not coming far. I started with 1.5b i believe (when i was active in merching) i got the 1.5b by crafting lol, believe it or not. When ardentmill just came out there was so much money to make from it. But it took me like a month to get to that point, after that i started to merch. Learn the prices, and start merching. I used to write down all the things i saw in FM + Prices in a excell file. Yes, it takes some time, but it pays off. After a while you basicly know all your prices, and then the merching becomes quite easy. If you dont know the prices, then merching is hard, yes. But if you know them, you only have to be a bit lucky. If you have a lot of money, i would just buy like 30k and spend it on something to get mesos (surprise style boxes or something) then learn the prices. The more money you have = more stuff you can buy = more profit.

^ Oh, okay. I was thinking of starting with 10B and buying cheap SW weapons and cheap stuff thats in high demand and then re-sell for full price. of course out of that 10B I will get, I'm going to buy an end game dag ^_^ so I'll have probably 5B left over.

The best way to start is to farm SW equips and then sell them for.. idunno 200-500m or something each? After you get enough money by selling a few you can probably start them.

You do not need too much funds to kill Grosso polpo in commerci (the octo who drops the equips)... at least in the Rosa trade. You just need a little bit of time and patience to do the prequests and do the trades whenever you can.

Good luck~

EDIT: Oh snap you already have 10bil.. okay never mind just buy low sell high

Just a quick question, can you actually just spam S>NX in FM? I mean is it "legal"?

Technically S>NX is against the ToS of Nexon of America, INC. But, lots of players do it. But like I said, You'll never get me to give someone 50 dollars over the internet before they give me virtual currency. Forget that lmao. hell has a better chance of freezing over.

i started with 25m
ended up with 9b
got banned 1 month within starting

lol its easy, start with the small stuff, get cool nx/collector items then scam once you have 2b or so.

and you'll never get me to give someone mesos over the internet before they give me virtual currency (nx)

you dont need nx to merch.

do not merch things that everyone else is merching, prices go up and down it you need to be an expert to know when to buy them.

knowing the prices is very important because if you dont know the price, its not because youll get ripped off, because most people in fm will sell cheap but because your scared that youll get ripped off and end up not buying the item
