Bells

I'm sure this has been asked before so I'm sorry if it's spam but I see people offering 20+ NMT or several million bells and have no idea how they do it. I'm still struggling to pay off my second (?) house loan! I heard that people get bells through turnips but my prices so far have been pretty bad and I can really only buy about 10 at a time so I have no idea how you get a million bells out of that. And as for NMT, do people just grind the tasks and such until they have enough Nook Miles to buy a bunch of tickets, or am I missing something that makes them easier to get? Sorry for sounding like such a newb (if people still use that word) as I am still pretty new to the world of Animal Crossing and if I need to take this post down or something I will!
 
I have 28 million in-game bells and it's literally just from...

playing the game?

Granted over 10 million of that are from turnips but the other 18 million I earned from just selling stuff.
 
Honestly just playing lol, I have 80k nook miles just from doing my daily stuff and playing the game. You can also get igb by exchanging your miles for bell vouchers or using turnips like you mentioned. People also sell villagers for nmts or igb
 
Most people trade and they get bells or miles for furniture/DIY/villagers they trade. For bells, turnips are where it’s at. Buy them for cheap then sell them at a higher price (in other people’s towns or yours). For miles, you can “time” your daily tasks and do them as and when you get miles for them to make the most of them.
 
for bells I just grind fish/bugs and sell when Flick/CJ are around for extra! and then spend all that money on turnips :p it's worth keeping an eye on threads here as people usually post their good turnip prices so you can maximise profit. and in terms of NMT I think most people get a ton of miles just from daily playing, I have a bunch from trading + also people left them as tips when I opened up my gates for turnip selling
 
The bells could be money trees, if you dont know what that is just find a golden spot, dig your 1000 bells and bury 10,000 bells. You can bury more or less but 10,000 gives you max profit (once you're deep enough in the 10,000 bell cycle you get 30,000 bells a day from money trees alone). For the NMT (or the bells too) you can grind but i think villaget trading (example: "I have raymond in boxes for 200 NMT!") and the people who can afford this Raymond get the Raymond and the seller gets their 200 NMT. Rinse and repeat. Other than that, tarantulas and just catching every last bug you see can give you bells and maybe goal NM which you use to buy NMT. Other than that, i'm in the same problem as you, i only expanded my home for the 120 storage and i'm trying to start the 10,000 bells cycle to pay it off. It took me almost a month for 1 stone bridge that was temporary.

For turnips you're going to need to visit other people's islands that offer high prices. You can get a good amount of bells. Turnip.exchange is a great website and you can look through the list and I would recommend looking for a free service one if you're having a hard time and can't pay an entrance fee or tip. Many users here post their turnip prices as well. You have to keep an eye out.
You can get nmt so easily buy selling stuff here, on discord or even nookazon. I have so many just by selling stuff on nookazon for very low prices since those bite more than expensive prices.

Sell your stuff, extra diys, seasells, duplicate fossils, fish, bugs and so on.
 
You can trade the bells you have on this website for them, called TBT in the trading section. 100 TBT for 100 NMT, or for 2 million bells.

Once you have like a million bells in-game, you can just became ultra rich by investing in the turnip market and using the multiplayer aspect.
 
i think being able to access other people's towns is an amazing way to make IGB... like I rarely check my turnip price, but I see someone almost each day with a 400+ turnip price. I made like 30 million in two days doing it

NMT... i mean some people TT to get seasonal DIYs - festive tree/ christmas, illuminated, mushroom stuff, frozen stuff - and then sell it for like 30+NMT at least. So thats probably how. People probably dupe NMT too but that is illegal to talk about. Its weird so many people think that the gameplay of this game is scalping rare items on nookazon or even here to have 'wealth"... I say don't get wrapped up in it, play the game how it makes you happy and don't worry about those people
 
Yep, like in real life, at a certain point in the game your money just makes you money and you don’t have to really think about it anymore

I feel like the economy in this game was negatively affected by the numerous duping glitches, making it possible to dupe expensive items like the crown, great white shark model and even NMTs (think this was fixed relatively quickly though). To answer your question, most people probably do earn NMTs and IGBs through simply trading with others online.
