Doing crafting dailies on a couple characters provides a steady if not spectacular income without stressing your gear.

I suspect that is on every map? Will it still be decent income if I only do it for one character?

Fencing stolen goods (With just one character you can average about 100k a week if you fence your stolen goods limit each day With 8 characters, that's 800k, with all 12 slots of characters that's 1.2m weekly). This alone will solve your gold issues.

Where are you stealing that you can do thieving with 12 characters a day? I've found that even the best thieving routes can take an hour per character to fill up a fully upgraded fencing limit. That's at least twelve hours per day, every day, just stealing stuff. XD

Here's what I do to make money, and I just bought a manor and gave my wife money to buy a manor.

1) Join a Trade guild with a Trader
If you want to make money, you need this. Otherwise, you will spend too much time advertising your wares and not enough time making money. Do it! Do it now!

2) Get yourself over to Gold Coast
Do the two daily world boss quests - Looming Shadows (Folly) and Roar of the Crowds (Arena). Both give daily reward containers that can drop motifs that sell anywhere from 9000-28000 each. In addition, each boss itself can drop a lesser motif that sells for 200-300. Post on your trader above.

3) Daily Crafting Writs
Do all the daily crafting writs you can. Each will give you a reward. The provisioning rewards sometimes include purple ingredients that sell and best of all, purple recipes that can sell for 5000-25000. Other rewards are yellow tempers (5000-7000 ea) and ornate weapons (sell to vendor) or intricate items - sell for 150-200 each. Post all of your intricate items on the trader. They sell like hotcakes.

4) Embrace Your Inner Thief/Assassin
Start the assassin quest line and get yourself a Blade of Woe, or as I like to call it, the Blade of Money. Go into castle in Glenumbra and steal everything that isn't nailed down - whites are 40gp, greens are 100gp and blues are 250gp. Assassinate the two roamers upstairs for more item goodness. Go into the various houses, assassinate where possible, loot everything. Without skill points, you can sell 50 items per day. Make the most of it. At a bare minimum - with just white items - that's 50 x 40 = 2000gp per day. If you get all greens, that's 5000gp per day. In addition, you will sometimes get blue or purple recipes as well as (now) blueprints, etc. You can launder up to 50 items as well and you want to launder blue recipes and above and blueprints, etc. to put up on trader.

5) Camp
Camp a World Boss that sells well - Spinner or Spriggans sell especially well - or a Public Dungeons or even a Dolmen and sell the Spinner and Spriggans on your trader. Rings sell decently but the cash cows are Spinner Sharpened Destruction Stafves and Spriggans Sharpened One Handers - especially daggers. You can sell them for 200K.

6) Be the Lumberjack!
Go out and harvest. Collect wood, metal and cloth (and pelts too) and sell them on the trader without processing them - they sell for more that way. You can process them if you want and then sell any gold tempers you refine, but you really need to be heavily invested in your crafting skills to make this worthwhile. You can also go for runes, since a kuto sells well or flowers - stacks of alchemy ingredients go well.

There are a few that I personally use. Do those and you WILL make money!
