What are some efficient ways of making money?

The way I make g is the boring standard planting high value crops with Deluxe Speed Gro and processing them through Jars and Kegs and then run the wine thru Casks. So Ancient Fruit in the Greenhouse (I generally ignore the Ginger Farm but you can put them there too), Rhubarb on the farm in Spring, Starfruit in the Summer, Pumpkins in the Fall.

Almost everything takes 7-10 days to process so you have a lot of time to do something else to make g like Skull Cavern runs for Iridium to make bars to sell or whatever else you find fun in the game. Enjoy!

Building off of what Lew said, generally if you're at the stage where you need perfection money you're on ginger island, in which case the mainland farming is generally not worth your time. You should just try to plant as much starfruit/ancient fruit on the island and work on processing it all. Dehydrators are a great bet in 1.6 as they're low cost but still more than double crop value when you have artisan.

Other methods include mining for iridium in skull cavern (which can make a lot but is largely skill based), farming radioactive ore to sell as bars (can make many 100,000s per day but is pretty soul crushingly boring and does require some skill - also just not worth it on non pc platforms), pig barns for truffles, sheep barns for cloth (makes a decent amount when optimized as is very hands off once set up), or optimized fishing (caldera fishing then smoking lava eels can net a couple 100,000g per day when done right but it's not great if you aren't a fan of fishing. When you get the extended family quest you can get so much per day off of legend 2s), a giant honey farm on the island (some people just like harvesting machines rather than crops), etc.

There are other methods but generally most people do what's simple and fast. You don't need to crazy optimize your money as overall perfection doesn't demand an absurd amount of money. I'd say starfruit and dehydrators is absolutely fine so long as you get it started when you get to the island and keep it up as you pursue other facets of perfection.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write it in brief. I needed an essay urgently and didn’t know where to turn. A friend recommended ukwritings.com/buy-essay so I decided to buy an essay from them. The process was smooth, and the essay I received was top-notch. It was clear, concise, and well-researched, meeting all of my professor’s requirements. The writer did a fantastic job, and I will definitely use this service again in the future.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write it in brief.

Edit: I will for sure. Thank you once again :)

No problem, if you want any more deeper explanations into how to do any one specific method or just some tips and tricks, feel free to ask! I'm generally known as the money/money challenge person here on the forums so I have a decent chunk of knowledge
