What do you do for cashflow ?

I was just wondering what each of you do in order to ensure a positive cashflow to keep you playing. I mean the obvious choice / answer is deposit ; but I mean other than that.
We all know that hunting for the most part does not give any real return on investment. I mean sure , the globals and occsional HOF helps , but does not ensure a net profit. Mining does seem to have a slightly better rate of return, but ultimately still a net loss.
I dont have enough experience with the crafting to know a true "cost - vs - return" scenario. However, the little crafting that I have done has been a large loss on investment.

So the question is : What do you do to make the Peds necessary to stay alive in the world ?

Thanks and good luck to all

skill up to lvl20 main weapon profession, find the right combination of gear and mob (yes, this one is not as easy as most of us may think) and camp.
works fine for me, although i'm constantly on the edge of being broke i can sustain for quite some time now (and i never hoffed or got any remarkable loot)..

Marksmanship

Trading. And no, I don't mean reselling. I say always make sure you have some PED stocked that you wont spen on ammo/repairs. If you're out of the mining/hunting money, then go hit the auction house. Watch the "New Offers" like a hawk, buy ores and enmatters when the market value is down, and sell when it's a few percent up. Even if you just make a few PED on every item/ore you'll be up to a good amount of money in time. Hope this helps!
