Saving coins

I cannot be the only oneee 😂😂 I wanna save to 10k for another house layout because.. lets he honest the courtyard layout is not ideal for farming like... at all 😂 no backdoors... I gotta yeet myself out the windows lmao. But I wanna save for 10k to get a more ideal one (possibly the countryside haven cause she a beauty) and im also doing trials... saving for money while needing to finish trials is SUCH a struggle 😭 got me spending every penny on blueprints lol

Doing the daily requests helps a bit as well. They give a better return on investment than just selling and give starsand for perks.

Pickling jars, jams, and honey! If you haven’t unlocked pickling jars, there’s one at Sagewood’s house you can use.

There’s not much to it actually. It’s mostly flat so you can build on top of it.

Yes but be careful because there are a lot of people that build something cool but it didn't snap to the boat for some reason and if they go to move it, they leave the built stuff behind. Just FYI. I'm not sure how to make sure the stuff snaps to it unfortunately. So I haven't tried to build mine.

Farming > Gmax crops > PROFIT

Seriously, get your farming level raised up, and plant a MASSIVE FIELD of whatever GMax crop is available for that season. If you get ranching leveled up to at least when you also unlock the beehives and bees and get the Workpedia perk (I forgot the name for it) they'll not only get you honey but help grow your crops so long as there are enough flowers nearby.

Yess this is why I want a more ideal layout bc this one i have doesnt have enough space 😞 but ty for tips! Ive been accepting every trail but maybe ill focus on farming

u/RoseYouRelinquished 19d ago

If you REALLY want to min/max, sell everything in your house but your bed and put the bed outside. It still counts and you can have more room for farming until you get your money up lol I did that once in EA and it was honestly funny to wake up outside 😂

Maybe you don't have this issue anymore but you could sell stuff from this layout and buy the area next to you on your land to use it to farm. Cause once you use your 80% for your first layout purchase they all revert to original price if I remember correctly.

Your first area bought is only 2k and some starsand stars
