[QUOTE="Cedric, post: 3190228, member: 2044"] Commodity trading...had a group make a ton off of this. We took local, relatively small, sought-after commodities and transported them across long distances for sale. Ok, so once we had the "haul" from the most recent excursion, it was split in half. The first half went to the investment pool. The second half was split equal among the party members. We then took the investment pool and before we left a place, we'd find those commodities and buy as much as we could, stuffing our portable hole with them. We'd then take the furs, spices, gems, etc. and carry them along with us. When our travels (we traveled a lot), took us to a new city a long ways off. We'd sell those luxury items for a nice profit, since we chose items you couldn't get in that location...and we'd use the money to buy more local luxury commodities. We continued this for our entire time and made TONS. This requires a GM who knows some of the rudiments of basic finance and trade and is willing to be semi-realistic in employing those financial fundamentals. Cedric [/QUOTE]
