|answer=There are multiple ways to make money on Grinderscape.  
 +
*If you are a new player, it is recommended to start with theiving as this gives you straight gp.
 +
*Once you've gotten some money from theiving, another good money making method is slayer.
 +
*Once you've maxed your combat stats, PVMing (bossing) is the ultimate (safe) way to get money.
 +
*If you like to gamble/stake, this could also be a good way to make money. BEWARE! This is also how to lose money as well.
