I'm a financial failure in video games.

EQ wealth is a lot like RL wealth:

• Meet the right people and get the good loot
  
• Work your ass off and grind for scraps
  
• Use your head and find a niche in the market

I rely on the strengths of my class and farm items that people constantly need and use.

Only one class can make potions for example (less competition) and people will need/use SoW all the time.

Bam.

Or maybe you're a Ranger. Use your Tracking to your advantage. Not everyone can Track. DE SK? Farm CH scythes. You get the idea.
