Ok, In the rules it says a character can make money by using either the craft or profession skill equal to half your resultant DC check per week.
There is also a list of prices under services where it costs "X" to get a spell to be cast. What is stopping a character from casting spells as a service. This seems a much more lucrative venture than using the above skills. (Yes there would be guild taxes and dues, but even at 75% tax its still much better than any skill payout).
Also what about EPIC level characters making money. For example, I have EPIC character that cast spells. She doesn't have a kingdom or keep or anything like that, so really no costs, other than lodging and eats (lets assume these are free or zero cost).
This sort of came out of another article under House Rules for Harvesting Raw Materials. She can shapechange into lets say, a gold dragon and using her Knowledge(Nature) [33 ranks] determine where the best place is for Giant Oysters to grow/live. Then go and crack open the oysters all day. Rinse and repeat. even if she only found 1 oyster a day its more than the skills payout.
Are there any articles/products which go into this?
Check: You can practice your trade and make a decent living, earning about half your Profession check result in gold pieces per week of dedicated work. You know how to use the tools of your trade, how to perform the profession's daily tasks, how to supervise helpers, and how to handle common problems.
