These should be around the cheapest.

Ah, the Neopian returns without my item. Clearly you want me to turn you into a Blechy.

You are supposed to bring me:
Miniature Sandbox

I did some fun math to find out how long it would take to gain the same amount of interest in the bank (at 12.5%, compounded daily) as you would at various sell-points in the stock market. As long as the stock of interest hits the sell-point more frequently (on average) than the length to gain that much interest, you're better off in the stock market than in the bank. Of course, the higher your sell-point, the more variance there will be in terms of length of time to reach it (and thus more risk) vs. accumulating interest.
 
Sellpoint: Time to Equivalent Interest*
30: 5 years, 68 days
45: 8 years, 112 days
60: 10 years, 200 days
75: 12 years, 108 days
90: 13 years, 266 days
105: 14 years, 345 days
120: 16 years (exactly)
135: 16 years, 340 days
150: 17 years, 279 days
165: 18 years, 190 days
180: 19 years, 77 days
195: 19 years, 20 days
210: 20 years, 159 days
240: 21 years, 182 days
270: 22 years, 212 days
300: 23 years, 100 days
330: 24 years, 12 days
375: 25 years, 19 days
420: 25 years, 348 days
450: 26 years, 184 days
500: 27 years, 126 days
600: 28 years, 292 days
700: 30 years, 11 days
900: 32 years, 14 days
1200: 34 years, 123 days
1500: 36 years, 44 days
2000: 38 years, 153 days
2500: 40 years, 74 days
3000: 41 years, 242 days
4000: 43 years, 327 days
5000: 45 years, 273 days
*I did not factor in leap years. I think during leap years, you get an additional day's interest, so for every 4 years, just subtract 1 day to reach that interest level.
 
Of course, bank interest is not necessarily the best investment of your resources. Since the stock market is a long term investment, and you can't control when it's time to sell, you do need cash on hand to pay for... whatever you like to spend money on. (For example, maybe you bought extras of all the Negg Festival prizes to sell later once they inflate. Or maybe you buy weapons, healing potions, dubloons, and codestones when they're cheaper and sell during wars. Or maybe you just want a good BD set, or you want to work on your gallery, or just train. All these require NP on hand.) It's up to you how much you invest in the stock market vs. keeping on hand. (Don't forget, there's also the risk of a stock going bankrupt. The more you have on hand, the more you stand to lose. This hasn't happened since 2004, but you never know -- 8 went bankrupt over the course of a couple of years. There's also the slight risk that TNT might change how the stock market works, making it work more like a real stock market (where price is based on how much the store in question sells of high-profit vs. low-profit items, as well as the number of shares being bought and sold each day).)
 
But given that it would take 10 years in the bank to equal a buy-at-15,sell-at-60 stock market gain, I think I will increase my sell-point. I just need to see how often stocks meet other sell-points (if ever). For example, AAVL has only gone above 100 four times (2005, 2007, and twice in 2009). ACFI never has; it has only gone above 90 once, in 2005 (same with BB, only in 2007). So while it might make sense to raise AAVL's sell-point to 100, it wouldn't for ACFI or BB.

I really don't like wasting it. Would a good loophole be me creating a buzz letting someone naming them and I'll paint them and donate that to the pound? Or would that still be a bannable offense?
