    I didn't feel rich until I had a million gold. Then I didn't want to spend any until I had another million because I didn't want to drop under a million again. Now I'm at around 300k but bought everything I need

    I get nervous if I have less than 100 000g
    I spend so I have about 150000 right now I think but know 85% of the motifs all my gear is gold with pvp and pve sets per character i don't make them share. I even have a gold stam set for NB and a stam pvp set waiting for kahjit and 67 dregs wax waiting for sorc when DB comes out - also lots of gold monster helms and a lot of ap so I don't have that much money but I have lots of gear and the means to make it. Alloys, kuta's,and wax etc

    I try to keep between 100k and 300k. I don't consider that alot, merely enough. I guess 10m seems like something lot.

    Funny how it slides over time. I remember struggling for money.

    True Scrooge story :

    I knew a guy on xbox, he had over 2.5 mil (few months back)... Anyway he's in need of a arcane willpower necklace - about 30k at the time.. But he's unwilling to buy it. Scrooge.

    Then when in a group in imperial sewers, one of his friends got the necklace (I didn't know the guy) the guy who's rich says something like "I'm after that you mind giving it to me" - the cheek lol.
    Anyway the guy who got the necklace gave him it for FREE. The guy who gave him the 30 k necklace needed to respec his CP a couple hours later but he didn't even have 3k... The guy with over 2.5 mil didn't offer him a measly 3k. So the guy had to get his own money from elsewhere. 3k. Yes 3k.
    That made me sick, even if it's "only a game". They knew each other (only a bit tho) before I spoke to them, but still I couldn't believe that rich guy didn't give that other guy a penny.

    Never known someone so greedy in a game.

    I don't have enough to buy 25 perfect roe on PS4 which makes me sad because I want to make a stack of the gold Orsinium food.

    Don't have enough gold to buy a stack of the gold Orsinium food either.

    Holy Sweet Baby Jesus, if I would of been in chat I totally would said something like, "Didn't he just give you a ring worth 30K for free and you have millions, if your not going to give him 3K at least loan it to him so he can respec.

    That's terrible, I been very fortunate with guild mates that help each other out.

    Hmmm, I am so happy about my 65k gold right now. The only time I had more was just before I bought my horse.

    Well, my main doesn't steal nor searches crates or cupboards. So I guess its fine to not have had more then 100k gold ever. :smile:

    Why would anyone even want the gold Orsinium food?

    I actually met a player once in a random dungeon. His health was very low, and he was hitting like a wet noodle. He asked for advice, and after some questions, it turns out he was using that golden food because he simply assumed that, being golden, it was the best money could buy.

    The main problem with the golden food is that the regen potency is just way too low. If you need the regen, the purple drinks or blue drinks are almost always much better. And most scenarios call for just one main resource, the regen plus max stat Orsinium blue hybrid food/drinks are preferred because the potency is just so much higher.

    Well most people I play with seem to have not much more than 250k on average. I feel loaded when I'm at 500k. That's purely because I then go spend 300k on gold mats.

    Honestly, I'm sitting a few mil atm, but it's SO easy to accumulate that it doesn't feel rich to me. I know of a few people in the near 100mil - that would feel like a lot to me.

    Khajiit finds that any gold that falls into her paws is a good thing.

    This one would also like to thank you for making a thread telling this one just how much money you have.

    Khajiit will note this. Just for the personal interest of khajiit you understand.

    By the way if you could also state if you are a pocket or purse or backpack sort of person khajiit would also find this interesting for no reason at all.

    I have a stam sorc that could use the health, magica regen, and stamina regen the health regen is a wash but the plus health magica and stamina regen would work well for me.

    I'm not rich but I have more money IRL than I have gold in game right now. I strictly PvP nowadays and the rewards for the worthy atm are only worthy for deconstruction, it saddened me when I found out in DB we'll still be getting the same sets.

    I changed my build (only PvP with 1 character) recently, first time in eight or nine months and all the gear including weapons are still purple, that's quite a disadvantage. If there was 1 thing I would spend Crowns or AP on it would be gold mats, I then might be able to try out a heavy armour build again!

    Depends on context. 200k is a lot for a Ring of Willpower. 1m is what I would consider "a lot" for someone to have, though I know a few people who have over 5m gold. I've made it to 1m gold once, have about 400k now plus 100-150k in assets. I would have a lot more but... I spend at least 20k a day on potions :(

    Anything over 100k is good to me, and I have much more than that stored in the bank.

    However, every piece of gold is precious, and I have been very generous too. As we should be!

    1 million and above. Would like to hit that milestone. I think I'm a little over 500k across all of my characters combined.

    [Edit]

    It seems I made a slight miscalculation. I went through all 8 of my characters and banked my gold. Turns out, I actually have a bit above 1 million gold total. Didn't even realize I had hit that milestone. Dem feels B)

    I had 400k last weekend but redused it to half after a couple of monster helmets were bouht. I thought it was a lot, but it's rather relative compared to what you want to buy.

    The good jewelry and gear are usually in the 6 fig rate.

    it is normally "easy" to get 1m+ in a few days if you're really going for it. but as it is boring as hell it is a pain to get to 10m, so i consider 10m as a lot.
