Hi and welcome! About making money... It really depends what you're good at. You could play games (flash/keyquest/habitarium) have stocks, bet in the food club, be a reseller, ... You should just do what you like ;)

 

Did you check out all the guides at The Daily Neopets? They really come in handy.

Hi! I'll be your neofriend. ^_^ Welcome to the forums! Yup, there are plenty of ways to earn neopoints. It really depends on what you enjoy most and what you have the time for. I just discovered Food Club and it's really good for making neopoints if you have an old account (it looks like both of our accounts are around 8 years old). It's a betting game, but if you know what you're doing, it's predictable enough so that it averages out to be a good profit.

 

Also, is that your kid in your profile picture? :) I hope to be a mom soon (after I graduate).

Welcome..

neopets has oodles of ways to make neopoints it really is about finding something you will enjoy.

 

habitarium is probably a good way to make np's if you like that kind of game..lots of other ways though Im sure you will soon find out once you get a bit of time to play around with the site. :yes:

Welcome to TDN Forums! I would suggest doing your dailies and playing games that you like, as well as Key Quest and Habitarium. Give a few things a try and you'll definitely find your groove. :)

Obligatory comment on how to make money (i.e. grinding) restocking-free when you are serious :)

 

However, keep in mind not everyone likes grinding. If you don't like it, don't do it because you play a game to enjoy not to suffer.

I don't even know what I'm gonna do with all that capital sitting there. Minor case of OCD with my NP bank I guess...

 

1) Habitarium: This is 150k/day if you go for the 24/7 gem mode.

-Tips: If you go nest mode (you don't need to keep habi open 25/7), you have to build lots of nest and use nesters to lay eggs.

-If you go gem mode, you do lots of workers and you do "nest dump" to clear your resources. You should check online guides for help

-obscene amount of money (think about free ATM machine)

-moderate time to maintain (45-50 minutes per day)

-quite boring

-subject to crashes/bugs that cannot be easily fixed (merge or reset)

 

2) Food club: my current average is about 75% return on investment per day

-Tips: follow Hugo's bets for starters

-easy money, you ALWAYS win in the long run

-not boring because it's like gambling with fake money

-easy to maintain (5 minutes per day if you copy bet)

 

3) Faerie Employment Agency: 15-30k per day

-Tips: go for the 6k + jobs with jellyneo itemdatabse or shop wizard open. Check the price very fast and get the job if you get a profit of 3k or more.

-Remember there is a time bonus that goes down linearly until you hit the base price. Thus, avoid 2 minutes job unless it's really profitable from the get-go.

-With experience you will learn about the price of a lot of items and don't need wizard anymore (although it's still suggested)

-You can get 5 jobs per day. Only 3 jobs within 10 minutes allowed. Then 1 job next 10 minutes and the last next 10 minutes

-easy money

-moderate to maintain (5-10 minutes of actual time, must be spread across 30 minutes because of job limit per 10 minutes)

-You learn about prices

 

4) Flash games: play the less time consuming ones

-Kass Basher (3k/day): ~1 minute per day

-Fashion Fever (0.9k/day) ~ 10 seconds per day

-Catch the Petpet (1.5k/day) ~ 30 seconds per day

-AdverVideo (average 2k/day)

-Repetitive, but I picked the fastest ones

 

5) Battledome:

-You can now win on average 5-6 codestones per day, including reds. That's about 25-30k per day at least

-You need to train a battle pet

-You need decent weapons

-About 5-10 minutes per day depending on how strong your pet is...

 

6) Bank interest

-Money makes money. Soon enough if you do all 1-5 you will see your daily bank interest reach 10k per day and more.

 

7) Stock market

-Diversify your portfolio investment

-Depends on your strategy (short term, mid term and long term)

-If you are extremely patient you can get a lot of money but the risk is much much higher than all of the above

-Not as profitable in the short term as any of the other options

 

8) Restocking

-Not suggested, this is 100% grinding

-Boring, tedious and time-consuming

-Have to fight against bots (yes, there are cheaters out there and this is one of the only places you will be directly pitted against them)

-A lot of profit assuming you have the skills (can generate as much profit as all the other combined)

-Thrill (?) of getting unbuyables

(not for me)

wakka9ca that was so helpful! Thank you :)

 

What does restocking mean??

 

I've been on neopets a long time but had a break and came back and feel like I'm out of the loop.

I also have NO IDEA how to work habitarium

You can check the TDN Habitarium guide or find useful guides from the NP users themselves (pet pages). I do have to warn you it's easy money but quite boring after you reach level 50 (max). However, you only start getting insane income once you reach LV50. You will probably get about 400-500k just from leveling up from LV1 to LV50.

 

Restocking means buying items for official shops around Neopia and selling them for very high market price. You have to know which items to buy. The difference between the shop price and the market price will be your profit. The most profitable are items worth millions of NP that appear rarely in select shops and sells for very cheap (under 100k usually). You have to be extremely fast to get those items before others do. There are guides for doing this and also suggested "beginner's" shops to "practice".

 

However, this also means there are cheaters using bots to do this so you have to literally fight against automated machines doing the buying in split second. Let's not discuss about that... TNT is somewhat inefficient at catching them. Even without bots, this is where skill, speed, luck, patience and experience matter the most. You have to have all that. Not a lot of people have that. If you are the very competitive hardcore gamer type, you might be interested in restocking (I am but I get my income elsewhere as said in previous post).
