once a day you’ll find a shining gold spot on your island, dig it up and you’ll find £1k bells
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🙌🏻" title="Raising hands (light skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Raising hands (light skin tone)"> according to the internet, the most you can make from money trees is 30k bells, so re-bury a bag of bells worth 10k in the gold spot - do this every day!

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🐚" title="Spiral shell" aria-label="Emoji: Spiral shell">
very simple, just sell every shell you see on your beach! the giant clams are the most profitable
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💸" title="Money with wings" aria-label="Emoji: Money with wings"> but all are worth money, and you earn Nook Miles for selling them! and don’t forget to use them for DIY recipes too

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🕷" title="Spider" aria-label="Emoji: Spider">
and the same goes for the bugs - catch them all! obviously the big ticket items are the tarantulas & scorpions
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🦂" title="Scorpion" aria-label="Emoji: Scorpion"> - but a lot of the butterflies and big moths are worth a lot too!

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💰" title="Money bag" aria-label="Emoji: Money bag">
(imagine that’s a turnip), one of the best ways to make bells is to master the stalk market & turn your turnips for a profit!
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💸" title="Money with wings" aria-label="Emoji: Money with wings"> Daisy-Mae visits every Sunday before noon & sells her turnips for between 90-110 bells.
