Videogames: What Can You Learn About Finances, Side Hustling, and Freelancing From Playing Skyrim?

It's not all violence for nothing

I had only one aim in mind when I first started writing stories: to write about finance. It's kind of a pastime for me. Isn't it tedious? It doesn't have to be that way, though. If side hustles, Upwork, and Fiverr-ing don't catch your interest, the economy of the kingdom of dragons may.

What are some ways to generate money in Skyrim?

I realise that we must begin the lesson from the beginning. As a result, the topic of how to produce money arises. What are my alternatives for a career?

So, dragon-blood, here are the eight professions you could encounter:

Hard Labor: You say it's not so much fun? However, it's possible that it might! that it's because you're merely moving your fingers and not operating on real-world terrain. It may, however, not be the most profitable option. Sawing wood, helping at a farm or well, or making swords are some of the other options. Honest remuneration for honest effort.

As another option, be a Gold Digger when it comes to marriage. Skyrim is a lovely kingdom where you may marry almost anyone. Seriously, your race, other races, and gender, genders, genders, genders, genders, genders, genders, genders, genders, genders It makes no difference. So, why marry a poor person? If you choose someone who runs a store, you may expect to make roughly $100 every day. Money, money, money. I intended to say love!

Invest in/Train Your Persuasion Skills: You must spend money to make money, just like in the "real world." You will be rewarded if you hire a Speech-Skills expert and pay him or her. From then on, every transaction, every purchase and sell, will be much more convenient for you. And make a lot of money for you.

Sell Anything You Find: When you're wandering the streets and forests of Skyrim, you'll undoubtedly come across someone who wants to hurt you. Kill them, take their belongings, and sell anything you don't need. You can also find items laying around or in chests... However, there isn't as much enjoyment that way.

Accept that brawl. Yes, it's a touch "barbarian," but you're in Dragonland, so what do you expect? Accept the duel, win, and get your sweaty prizes.

Freelance: Let's save this one for later because it's a bit lengthier.

Work for the MAN: The Jarl's work is sometimes of a feminine character. It can get political and bloody, therefore it's well compensated.

Steal and pickpocket are two words that come to mind as ways to make money. It's all really simple. Unless you are caught, it's actually monetarily lucrative. It happens to the best of us at times.

In Skyrim, there are a variety of "businesses" that may provide you with freelance jobs. Take a look at some of the best offers:

The Dark Brotherhood: For the bloodthirsty, this is a lot of fun. You are just asked to kill individuals on your own time and with a great deal of flexibility. Is this one for the faint of heart? Perhaps not, but if you're up for it...

The Thieves Guild: I have a soft spot for these people. They pay handsomely for a job that you're probably already performing. There are also lots of adventures to be had all across the realm, including plundering everything.

Honesty in Work, Honesty in Pay. Assist your fellow Skyrim people. It's extremely satisfying. Perhaps not always for your wallet, but always for your heart. Make sure you don't get arrows in your knees along the way.

To sum up, my dear Dova, select your job alternatives thoughtfully, even if you can do a combination of them. And, most importantly, STEAL (but just in game)!
