Making money with jokes

[Unholyshaman]

Hey guys, this can hardly be called a guide, but more of a fun tip.
Whenever I am on my bank alt scanning the Auction House etc, I post in trade

"Selling jokes bound to make you laugh from a wide variety and genre range! 15 gold per joke - PST!"

Then all you do is before hand is get a selection of jokes (google is your friend) - good jokes no the stupid why did the chicken cross the road kind of things, and put them in a txt file. Separate them into different genres such as Classic, Movie related, Adult, WoW Related, etc and then when someone whispers you ask them which genre they want.

It's up to you if you believe this works or not but it actually does - sure it's not a solid income by far but it is a lazy way to earn a quick buck or two while stuck on a bank alt crafting or scanning.

Sounds too farfetched for me, but if you needed like 15gs for an enchant this could
be useful.

Like I said, it isn't supposed to be a mainstream money making method. But still it does bring in gold over time and it takes hardly any effort or time to do, so why not?
Now go study Xel you have an exam :P

It's actually not that farfetched. I used this joke in trade once.

What's the difference between a dead gnome on the road and roadkill?
The roadkill has break marks before it!

And I immediately got a whisper from a guy saying that he was going to use it and pay me 5g everytime he used it. And it's been a few months now and I still get 20-40 gold a week in my mailbox.

Watch out for "dark" jokes. For example i got 3day suspension for: Q:How do you recognize Jew basketball player? A: They have sticking out legs from the oven.
Was quite surprised because of me getting reported on my server where 23:00+ means "Yo momma-fights" on daily basis.

Just did this on my alt and well..
I didn't believe it at first but I do now.
Some didn't really like it, while others paid for another one.
Nice thing to actually be doing something while waiting on something like BG's

Best way of making money at low lvl , I might do this also not because I want gold but because this sounds funny.
