How are people so rich

Whenever I look at trades and see people bidding like 15 to 25 is the highest I've seen, I wonder how you people are so rich. I consider myself lucky to have gotten my hands on an Enigma(only through extensive trading including other sites). To those who are so rich, please tell me how to make a fortune like yall

15 to 25

Jah, my mistake

Keep in mind that a lot of people on non-ladder have been playing since D2R came out, which was... *checks notes*... over 4½ years ago. That's a lot of time to accumulate Wealth, and non-ladder econony never resets. The more you trade the better you get at it, right? It's easy to end up stockpiling those high runes after a while, and then you can throw them around in trades when there's an item you really want.

It's not like ladder where the economy does a complete reset every 3-4 months, everyone starts from 0. Nobody throws around that kind of Wealth until mid/late season, and only very few reach that level of Wealth during a single season, need some extremely lucky drops (or just be a very active & good trader).

You play a lot.

It also compounds.
It took me a lot longer to get my first Enigma than my second, and so on. Same with HoTo/CTA etc.

Also know what to trade for. The right bases are worth a pretty penny.

Also I'd say Enigma is the beginning, not the end. It's a drop in the bucket compared to some items.
Obviously talking about Bnet here, not SSF/offline.

You have to understand , it is different world compare to it just release.

The 1

Jah value in old days is complete different than today's 100

Jah. And even today, some value difference still apply.
(something like you sell them into real world, get them back now, it will be much more than just 1

Jah that everyone agree, I think it will be more than 100

Jah too...)


Let's say an very easy example, not for that long long change. (For example, you sell all your good old torch in rotw just release for just 3

Jah. Til today, you can get them back with less than 1

Jah)
Not mention about other obvious high profile good old world item.


Example
Sorc 20/20 30 -> 10

Jah
Sorc 19/20 8 -> 2.5

Jah

The beginnings of my Wealth began from finding insanely rare runeword bases and skiller GCs tbh.. just takes finding one insane piece of gear that is worth a lot of

Jah runes in order to kickstart a buy low, sell high type of Hustle! Everything adds up eventually! Keep farming! I would really suggest looking into and figuring out what are the most valuable pieces of gear and keeping an eye out for those. Took me a while to figure out the runeword base game but if you find the right one.. you're golden!

That answer kind of right, I see drastic market value change in rotw. Most of bot move there.
Makes some item in LoD market shortage, price hike almost triple compare to rotw world.

All it takes is one lucky drop to become “rich” over night, and no im not talking a high rune - im talking about a sought after unique with perf roll,l and/or a rare sought after item, those will get u rich overnight.

The standard get rich is through playing, smart trading(buy low sell high), through market predictions. Overall, once u start to have a feel of d2r items value, you will start to accumulate Wealth pretty quickly
