Runescape can be a very addictive game once you know how to make money. Although it may seem tough at first, making money in Runescape can be done quite easily and on a low-level account! It is possible for you to make millions in weeks, granted that you spend a lot of time on your computer and deprive yourself of several other important things, such as academic and social lives.

First, you need to pick one of the money making skills: Wood cutting, fishing, mining. They are the best ways to make money, and you start out with the basic equipment to start them with. For example, I did fishing. I started out with a fishing net and ended up doing very well in the markets. Once you have your skill chosen, go to a location that offers you to use that skill. Being a fisherman, I would go to a river or lake with the "fishing" icon over it on the map. For woodcutting, go to "tree" icons. For mining, go to icons with pickaxes on them.

Note: For mining, do the Rune Mysteries quest mine Rune Essence. This will help you make a lot of money.

As a fisherman, I start out only being able to catch cheap fish. Thankfully, people practicing their cooking skills will buy these in large quantities, say 1 gp each, even if you sell 500 shrimp. That is a lot of money for just starting out. With your fishing net, find a spot close to a bank. Then follow this process: catch the fish, and put them in your bank, and repeat. Once you have a large amount of fish, you can sell them to buyers in the bank, friends, or go to one of the AI controlled markets. Eventually, you will be a higher fishing level and be able to use different equipment such as spears and catch higher level fish such as lobsters and swordfish. Once you have a nice pile of gold made up, take regular trips to Karamaja to catch higher level fish and sell them for high prices.

Because I mentioned Karamaja, you may also find it profitable to fill crates with bananas to make some extra gold. It is a minor quest, but you will make money for it each and every time that you do it. It is an easy way to pay your way off of the island, but why stop at that? If you keep at it for long enough, you can make thousands of gold coins in days.

As a miner, you want to mine Rune Essence. People will pay a lot of money for them because they want to craft runes. Luckily, there is a bank in Varrok that is very close to the Rune Essence mine. Like fishing, mine the Essence, put it in the bank, then sell it to other people in the bank. People will pay
