I was just wondering, as an insanely rich Nord who made my fortune through investments, alchemy, magicka, quests and other currency producers, are there any other really rich Nords? If so, please feel free to discuss how you made your millions and what you tend to spend on these days.

Pretty sure everyone who has a high level character would be considered rich in Skyrim. Gold is very easy to make, especially if you try!

I am up to 170,000 gold coins and I haven't even tried to make gold via crafting. I just sell loot I get from dungeons.

This is another thing I put my wealth down to, I must've made about 100,000 alone on looting

Rich Nords? Well those disgusting noble men in solitude

There are sleazebags like this one: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Erikur

And then there are nice and generous ones like this one: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Bolli

And then there are are those that are rich, intelligent, powerful, and benevolent like this one: http://i.imgur.com/YCSkP7y.jpg?1

Highest I ever made on my Nord was 850,000 septims.

Lol, erikur and the thanes ARE a bit full of themselves, granted. But that's what happens when you're consumed by coin haha

I think youre all forgetting the purpose of this topic, it is for the rich to share the foundation of their wealth and discuss methods of obtaining and spending money

I wish there were more options to give gold to beggars, more than just 1 coin anyway. If I can afford to give 500 coins to my kids whenever they ask, I think I can at least afford 500 for a poor beggar.
