I have practically got a full set of ebony armour now, well, I have a daedric shield, and a orcish helmet.

My weapons are so good now, that any weapons I find on my travels, or even armour, I get to sell it off and get a lot of money. I think I have around 17k now, and I always make sure to have amorers hammers on me.

I probably should be doing more in the name of health and fatigue potions, though.

The Arena is a brilliant way to get money fairly early on in the game. Most of the gladiators fall over in a couple of hits or spells and I chalked up about 10,000 gold in about an hour.

You can get good items anywhere in dungeons, roads, quests. But alot has to do with your level if you want the really good stuff. That's why I try to level up fast so I can get the cash.

good way get money is if you are grand master of arena.

SPOILER WARNING

when your grand master you fight monsters and you have choice to fight 1 2 or 3 monsters. if you fight 3 you get 1400 gold. Then rest for 7 days (you can only fight once a week) and fight the 3 again and you get 200 more gold each time you fight the same 3 again.

okay ther ar lots of ways to make money and all the above are good, but an easy and kwik way to make money is kill lots of creatures in the wilderness and take ther skins, then go and sell them for gold, alternativley join a guild, fighters guild is good if u wanna make money wiv fighting, be it swords or archery, the arena is a quick cash machne, tieves guild has great rewards provided u've got the sneak skill to back it up, mages guild i good to, and dark brotherhood u get paid for assasinations so these 5 moneymaking societies are great, i recomend joining all four to get the best of all worlds
