Warning: Pre-Alpha
This game is currently in pre-alpha, and at this time, I do not recommend running a game in it yet. Every single game mechanic and piece of lore is subject to potentially breaking changes.

Honest Living
Making an honest living vs Adventuring
Using these rules, it is technically possible to make an honest living, by buying crafting ingredients from a vendor with a lot of favors, using them to craft Tech 2 or Tech 3 items, and then selling those to a buyer with a lot of favors.
However, this will usually be less profitable than going on dangerous missions out in the wasteland: the highest skilled crafters, with the most favors & connections, will only make about 50💰 per week, whereas even the lowliest of scavengers, going on the least risky missions, will typically make at least 100💰 in that time frame!
Don't be afraid to go on adventures! The rewards will be worth the risk! (...And you'll probably have more fun!)
