Some people get help from other friends who have alot of money, or they already had a bunch of money from another character, but they decided to restart.

For me, selling elements does the trick. :)

I got good drops and then I alchemied a 7D armor set with now full int +4/5 and str +4/5 hp 250. Investing in drops works for me. I run by stalls in Hotan and search for a glaive high crit +50% phys and make it +3, usually sells for more than 4 times what I bought it for.

I don't know about lvl 11, but there are 2 ways (or 2 phases) to make money:
a. SP Farming - you remain at the same level for ages, and get loads of drops. Once you have enough you can either keep at it or move to phase b.
b. 3 words: Buying And Selling. I've been making tons with this - you wouldn't believe how many people don't notice their SOS drop is actually a SOM/SOSUN drop, and others simply don't know their prices. When you have over 1 mil, go look around in DH. Take 20 minutes or so to look through ALL the stalls. I get lucky about once every 2 days :P

Some people just buy gold. I know tons who have and they ruin the games economy. I don't recommend it at all.

getting gold is playing the market game smart since everyone seems to be selling wind2 wind4 these days as their main income it sells slower and cheaper. less profit

if you want to be rich grind on anything you can kill in 1 to 2nukes (1 range attack + 1 combo for the str builds)
remember being rich on lower level is nothing compared on being rich on later levels so save your money as much as you can you can have full sosun degree 4 set but without a good money management you wont be able to have 1 single sos 8degree.

be smart, be creative, don`t scam and don`t abuse others mistakes keep it nice and in the end the money just comes in :) grinding is just the harder part of the game

lol its the last sticky in guides tutorials, if you have free time, do it. At first you lose money, but if you do 500 of them, u gain about 800,000 gold. So say you do that a few times a week, you can get a couple mil, and do that for awhile, no need to worry :D

The way I got money in the game was when I was lvl28 and found a wep elixer, I then cheated somone too buying it for 450k, and then bought stones and elements with it. (NOTE:I would not recommend the cheating part since I only asked the person to buy for 450k as a joke...which they fell for.)

Also, about the lvl 11's having full stalls with good items, wait till you go to hotan. I would say about half the people are lvl 10 or under stalling. This is because most people have made enemies on their travels, and would dc their stall. So they make new chars, give the items to them, and have them stall, to lessen the chance of being dc'd.

Goldbuying FTW ! :P

No seriously, farm at dead ravine at lvl 42 or something, they drop tons of wind 2 and earth 4, so if u farm all your sp there, you will 1) be rich because of all the item drops, 2) be rich because of the thousands of wind 2 and earth 4 units.

Sometimes people make new chars and they load everything theyve got from their old char to the new one, so that they can afford full SOS sets at lvl 11.

Join a guild with experienced players, they can help you determine prices for certain drops if you dont know them very well.
Lots of players dont know that to do with a SOS-drop for example, they sell a SOS hands-pair for the same amount as a SOS bow lvl 16 or something, thus resulting in they will never sell it.

SELL ELEMENTS or save them and create and SELL D5/6/7/8 INT/STR/Challenge/Stamina/Magic STONES and higher.
