Hireling emails are passive income if, like me, you log your characters in and out while having most of your attention elsewhere. So, arguably, are whichever crafting writs you find super-easy to do. But other ways of making gold (and frankly crafting writs as well, given that I'm too burnt out these days to bother doing them) seem pretty active to me.
Passive income is income that requires little to no effort to earn and maintain, tell me how farming a little mats and copy/pasting is a lot of effort.stevenyaub16_ESO wrote: »That's not passive income...
Neither activity is passive by any means.
1. The actual active work is farming the matts. Posting them for sale is the easy part.
2. Recruiting players requires actual activity. One has to interact with other players to find some that are interested in joining your guild. Even just passively looking at Zone chat for LF guild posts is still active. That is the worst kind of activity since it requires paying attention to Zone chat.
Farming 1k mats in a week is definitely not a lot of effort I would say it’s barley any, I recruit people and no it’s a lot easier you literally go around to every zone copy/paste and wait a little to see if people pm you I make sure to tell them to whisper me for invite doesn’t even take 20 minutes.

This is very misleading. To farm enough matts and recruit enough players to earn 750k in a week does add up to a lot of effort. That is a simple fact most that have replied in this thread have pointed out. There is no two ways about it.
I will stick with doing crafting writs then turn to playing the game.

I’m gonna have to disagree, spending a few hours a week for a month to earn 750k isn’t a lot of effort and pretty passive when you barley have to do anything but I guess that’s just my opinion I was just giving how I do I didn’t say you have to do it my way if you disagree that’s completely fine though.

Again, you contradict yourself. Spending a few hours a week being active to earn 750k is not passive. That is a fact that everyone in here other than you is in agreement with.
You may enjoy doing all that, but that does not change the fact it requires being active doing it.

Because if they were paying market rates for the mats you would be selling at the trader instead. Someone in your guild is buying above market rates because they consider it a donation to the guild trader fund, and you're taking advantage of the fact that your guild gives an exceptionally generous cut for your "donation" to the auction.

How am I taking advantage I still don’t understand? they want you to give them mats and I oblige and so does everyone else that gives to the auction so I guess everyone is taking advantage?

To make what you describe into to passive income you would get money from guild to promote, but use that money to get other people to do the work for you and keep a cut for yourself.

Um I’m not trying to advertise my guilds that’s why I didn’t mention them and not everyone is on the same platform as me so that would be pointless I thought I’d just share a few ways for passive incomes. You don’t have to do It this way there’s other ways of course I was just saying what I do never said you have to do this lol.

Thing is, both activities are extremely specific to your guilds.
My trading guilds don't run their auctions the same way. One of them gave tickets in the raffle worth 1/2 the value of the donated lot - I think I won some gold two or three times. The others took donations and all the gold went to the trader bid.
My guilds don't pay for recruitment. That was done for free, by officers donating their time, even before Guildfinder. Your guild sounds a little like a MLM, which is a rather, er, interesting way to go about it.
Honestly, your advice boils down to "Guys, you can make gold by finding guilds that will pay you to do stuff for them!"
Which, sure, its worked great for you, but its a very guild-specific piece of advice, not a general practice available to everyone. That's certainly not been the case in the guilds I've been in. In my guilds, there was one guaranteed way to make money: sell items in the guild store.
I did writs before ESO+ offered any benefits to inventory. It merely comes down to a choice to do them or not.

You would have to keep all your mats in your bank and I have way to much gear and can’t store any in there and majority of my characters inventory’s are maxed as well.
