We do a lot of things in this livestream but none of them really compare to the moment when we hit two million gold in front of everyone. We also do a happy dance with our (very unamused) cat!

Watch Part 1 and Part 2 on YouTube or head past the jump for the embedded versions.

Earlier this week I reached 2 million gold on my main server. Now that I've had a few days to let it sink in I thought I'd jot down a few impression on what it means to reach 2 million gold. Read on past the jump.

Sorry. It had to be done.

Behold The Harlem Shake (WoW Gold-Making Edition). *ducks*

This the second post of our participation in 20 Days of Gold-Making. Be sure to also check out everyone else who is participating.

The prompt for today's post is "If you set yourself a goal what was your goal and at what point did you set it?" Read on past the jump for our thoughts on goals.

I've been playing around with moving data from The Undermine Journal character sales pages (search for your character on your server and faction and be signed into TUJ to view sales info) into spreadsheets.

Below are some of the raw sales data from tonight's mailbox collection. I thought I'd share it so you can see what specific items are selling on my particular server. Head past the jump for the data.

Here are our two recorded gold-making livestreams from June 15, 2012.

The very first post I ever made on Power Word: Gold was posted on February 7, 2011, exactly one year ago today. (The image above shows what Power Word: Gold looked like when it first started. Very, um, literal.)

I just wanted to take brief moment to thank each and every one of you who have ever read one of our posts, left comments, sent us an email, listened to the podcast, watched our videos, interacted with us on twitter,  Facebook or Google+, purchased our guide or in any other way supported us in our first year.

You are the reason for any and all success we've had and we are eternally grateful. Here's to another tremendous year!

<3,
-Jim Younkin

After adding another new gold-making blog to The World Of Warcraft Gold Blog Directory (as well as updating the activity levels on the directory) I had to stop and take a bit of time to write a little about the tremendous blossoming of gold-making blogs we've seen over this last year.

There has never been a better time to be a player looking for information on how to make gold in World of Warcraft. Frankly I'm often overwhelmed by the amount of new information coming out of gold-making blogs (both old and new) on a daily basis. Keeping up with my RSS reader often feels like trying to take a drink out of a fire hose.

Read on after the jump for a few of my thoughts about where gold-making blogging has been and where it's going.

Today's guest post was written by Croda (twitter: @marketsforgold) from marketsforgold. If you would like your guest post included on Power Word: Gold feel free to contact us at [email protected].

Today I have launched Croda’s Inscription Gold Guide.  It is free and it can be found at my blog marketsforgold.

This guide represents my experiences with the inscription profession that took me to over 1 million gold.  It is an aggregation of the posts on my blog marketsforgold and very little, if anything, is in addition to those posts  (actually the blog posts are a disaggregation of this guide).

Watch as Faid (from Nerf Faids) completely obliterates the credibility of this for-pay "gold guide". (Also check out Faid's corresponding blog post.)

All I could think after watching Faid's video was get 'em a body bag.

Unfortunately there will be people out there who will be suckered into buying guides like this. Thanks to Faid's hard work I know I won't have to worry about any of our readers falling into such a trap.

If any of our readers have felt ripped off by a gold guide that they have paid real money for be sure let us know via email ([email protected]) or in the comments below.

If any of our readers are new to gold-making and are looking for a good solid starter guide be sure to check out our 100% free guide "The Power Word: Gold Guide - Free".

Today's guest post was written by reader Snnowman of the Frostmane server. If you would like to write a guest post for Power Word: Gold contact us at [email protected].

What started as a way to fund my many alts ended in a quest for more.

I got on my gold making kick off and on during Wrath of the Lich King. I wanted the Traveler's Tundra Mammoth so, like anyone else without direction, turned to farming. I sit at the keyboard grinding countless mobs for a few greens and Frostweave Cloth thinking their has to be a better way. Read how after the jump.

Blizzard announced today that they are going to be selling a pet for real money that can be traded (BOE). I just wanted to take a few minutes to comment on this latest offering from the Blizzard Store and what it may mean to the future of World of Warcraft. Read on for more.

Today's guest post was written by Keelhaul from the Disenchanting Azeroth blog. If you would like your guest post featured on Power Word: Gold contact us at [email protected].

Throwback gear in 4.3 actually breathes new life into throwback gold-making opportunities for experienced players.  The ol' Hand of A'dal vials model for gold-making can be resurrected immediately, and GDKP runs have a new reason for pulling buyers into raids.  Follow us after the jump and start thinking out of the box and applying a gold value to actual bosses, rather than to items.

Our good friend Gimp has done a massive re-launch of his blog. He's switched blogging platforms and is now sporting a shiny new URL (GimpsGold.com). To celebrate his re-launch Gimp is having a contest where we can get up to three chances to enter to win five free games. For full contest details including how to enter and which games he's giving away read his post "New Site! New Quest! New milestone! PRIZES!!!!!".

Gimp has been one of my very favorite gold-making bloggers since he hit the scene. He is a gold-maker who thinks far beyond the obvious and has brought the community some of the best gold-making ideas around.

Visit GimpsGold.com today and enter to win free games. Contest ends September 10th 2011 so don't delay.

If you're like me and have been living under a rock for the last few weeks you may not have heard about Blizzard finally giving us players more control over our character's appearance. On their development blog Blizzard recently announced it will be introducing "Transmogrification" into the game with patch 4.3.

What exactly is transmogrification and how will it relate to gold-making? Find out after the jump.

In this video I answer a question from reader Kodohunt about how to know what is a good price and what isn't when you are just getting started in gold-making.

(Apologies for the "hotness" of the microphone sound. Still getting mic placement for these "auto-upload" videos worked out.)

Full question after the jump.
