I used to exclusively go to the island at night to beetle farm, but it got so tedious and boring I quit for a while. I hated it lol.

When I got my second copy of the game and started a cycling town, that boosted me up to 20+ million which has lasted me quite a while but now I'm doing a little bit of both beetle farming and selling things which is a nice middle ground.

What's your main source of bell income?
 
Selling TBT, beetle farming, collecting rare items and selling them, lots of perfect fruit trees. In most of my towns I don't have much need for bells anymore though so I don't even really try.

Speaking of, how do people make so many tbts? I know posting earns you a little bit but I've seen people with hundreds and even thousands. I'm just like "....how?"
 
I made a lot of money on the Stalk Market, but I have three copies of the game, so I'm almost guaranteed a decent return at some point in the week. It's even more effort than beetle farming though...
 
Beetles, sharks, and selling TBT. I'm also going to start playing the stalk market once I have my dreamies and I'm done time traveling for good.
 
Beetles and ocean night fishing. To be fair though I do keep spending my bells so after all my time in the game I've only just made it to 5,000,000 bells in my bank account.
 
I usually sell items the villagers give me from letters to make some quick bells, as i'm abit lazy unfortunately and don't like going back and forth from the island.
 
I used to go to the island and find beetles and sharks. Now I sell tbt if I need igb since the rate is rly good if you're looking for igb.
 
I made my Bells from the island. Also, be sure you keep your Bells in the bank. I get 99,999 in interest every month.

Most of my TBT comes from posting. As you can see, I've been here less than 2 months, but I have 1200+ posts. LOL. However, I did sell one of my collectibles for a profit of about 300 TBT.
 
beetles, sharks, stalk market, and closet cleanouts. :3 havent really done the stalk market recently though...
 
I wish I could do the stalk market but I'm too far gone with time traveling :( I just can't stop lol
 
I have 2 towns, and in my first one I just sold like 100 TBT and was set for life. In my second one however I'm not TTing or using forums so just the occasional beetle hunt.

I used to catch sharks and beetles for big bells. I've traded items on forums and accepted payment in royal crowns (crediting the buyer with the recycle shop price of 300k each), then hold until a lazy villager camps out, and sell to them in their "what did i eat" game for 1.1 to 1.4 M bells, its quadrupling your investment. also, you make a lot in interest once you have a high amount in your abd savings.

I used to fish in my town and on the island to get the sharks and stuff. Recently I have been selling turnips which I like a lot better because I made 10 million in one go so that was pretty sweet. Just have to make sure to get a high price or find someone with a high price. I still fish though... It's calming.

You can still check the turnip prices each day then when you find a really high price, charge a high entry fee to let people sell their turnips in your town.
 
It's mostly turnips, lots of turnips :D I have a second character solely dedicated to the stalk market, filling a full locker + floor + inventory...I might even consider expanding her house so that I can have more floors to put turnips down :D It's getting slightly out of hands to be honest!
