I honestly don't know why you didn't buy. I always buy regardless of the price. Bought this week at 108 and flipped for 630. It's never difficult to turn a profit.
even if it goes down (which is really rare right) he can just flip on another island right?

I've only ever flipped on other islands. Twitter search - easy to find people willing to have visitors almost every minute, some without requiring big tips. Just take a quick look at their timeline to make sure it's not fake.

What are the fastest ways to make money brehs?

I’ve read about turnips ( don’t know much though)

so far I’ve just been selling my fruits and random stuff I get on other islands

help a breh out (I’m not doing too bad though I’ve paid off my first crib in a few days and expanded)

When you're initially starting out:
- Catch and sell fish, shells, insects and extra fossils that you've already donated to the museum
- Use NMT (Nook Miles Tickets) to go to random islands and get fruit that is not native to your island. Plant the fruit on your own island to grow trees (your own fruit goes for 100, coconuts go for 250, anything else not native goes for 500 each). If you're having trouble just visit one of our islands, I think most of us have all the fruit to give to you
- Make lots of the 'hot item of the day' to sell at the shop if you have the resources
- Once you have at least 100K to spare, put it into turnips on Sunday mornings and keep them in your house (not outside, ants might eat them). You'll always buy for around 100, then check here and Twitter to find someone's island where they sell for at least 300, ideally 500+). Turnips are key, just buy 1-2mill worth every Sunday once you have the bells and you'll then make 5-10mill every week

People wonder if you need that much money, but when you upgrade the shop, get the Able Sisters' shop and want to do a lot of revamping your island, you'll need it.

Anyone looking to cash out, lemme know. Be warned that this is the morning price since it's 11am here. Evening price might be a wee bit lower or higher, not sure.

@Cerebral Labyrinth dropped some good points, I'll also add.

Fishing/Bug catching - After you get into the groove of being able to catch bugs and fish, you should already note what sells for high to medium to just plain nothing. You should ALWAYS stock the high selling fish/bugs for when either CJ (Beaver cat that fishes) or Flick (Punk looking Dinosaur that catches bugs) show up because they buy 'em for more than the Nook twins do.

You aren't pressed to SPEND money in this game. Always remember that, so short of buying stuff in the shops that rotate, you should be looking to max out your earning potential by selling stuff at the highest price you can get for it. I got rooms in my house dedicated to stacking up boxes of items, waiting to offload when either comes. They help you earn a great deal outside of the Turnip market.

Plant flowers - Yeah, I know it's a chore with all the crossbreeding and weird shyt they never explain, but planting flowers up in the mountains and other area increases the chances of rare butterflies and other shyt floating about. Plant flowers of the same variety one square apart (A dug hole is a square, if you're wondering what I'm talking about) and water them in hopes of crossbreeding, because if it goes well, a new flower will pop up in that square and increase the chances of rarer creatures landing on/around it. I haven't gotten into decorating with flowers yet, but planting them all about the place has yielded some very favorable results.

Create a tree stump in random areas of trees 'cause other bugs like to chill on 'em and you can catch 'em.

Daily Money Tree/Money Rock/Wasp nests - Everyday your island will generate a money hole (Glowing hole you can dig and get 1K bells out of) and one of the 5 rocks on your island will give you money when you strike it. As for the money hole, it's best to do the following when you see one lest you fukk up and lose the ability to re-plant money and maximize your earnings (You know about planting money, right?)

When you locate the glowing spot, immediately take out 10K (You do this by clicking on your money within the nook app and choosing it) and have it on hand (Important) within your inventory. Then, make sure your pockets have room before you dig, because you can risk picking up the sack of coins (1k) and get the "MY pockets are full" message and not be in a position to release a creature to free up a slot if you need be, and would get stuck buying the money again or something. It just throws it off. So yeah, find the glowing hole, have an empty slot available, throw in your 10K bag into the hole, Bam. Money Tree. If you plant 10K, it grows three bags, worth 10K each.

The Money Rock requires a bit of a hack to fully get all what it offers (8 random materials, or 8 different packs of money if it's a money rock). Look up how to dig in animal crossing since I fear my explanations are more misleading/confusing than helpful at times, but basically you're digging two (I always dig three) holes behind you to make sure that when you're hitting said rock, you don't miss, 'cause one miss breaks the cycle and you lose whatever else was supposed to come according to which strike you failed on.

Wasps - I forgot how many wasps spawn in your island a day, but they sell for good money (I save 'em for the bug guy) and are SUPER easy to catch following this ONE simple method. Shake a tree, while standing DIRECTLY infront of it. That way, when the wasps fall and you get the little animation of your character exclaiming and then they charge you, all you got to do is swing the net and pick 'em up easy.

You've been selling fruit, which is good, but be mindful that your native fruit sells for lesser than the other fruit you'll eventually get (As dude said, any of us can give you all the fruit since we've already done this amongst each other and with friends) so it's worthwhile to save your native fruit (Say you got Pears) to sell on other islands rather than your own that don't feature that fruit. I got Pears, my Bro got them booty peaches. Sunday mornings we take our harvest to each other's island and collect bank.

That's pretty much it, excuse all the rambling. The only other tip I have for you is to build workbenches around your island since you should sort of be getting into a groove of going around your entire island fishing/looking for bugs in like a loop (Atleast that's what I do) so I got workbenche and materials scattered all over, so when my shyt breaks, I can just run and build/pick up another. The worse thing to have happen is seeing a rare butterfly infront of you and you have to run away from it to your one work bench and craft something quick. It's mad convenient.

I think I'l lend this here, said so much to explain so little, but atleast you know the logic behind what I'm talking about if you've read in full. Happy playing, man. shyt's a blast.

You can do turnips now if you want but when you have little money at the beginning it's hard to do other things daily with no cash reserve. Like @Address_Unknown said, you're not pressed to spend money, so it's better to take it slow and develop your island rather than going all-in on turnips and having nothing else to do. Those of us doing the turnip game have built up a reserve in our ABD so we can still do all the other stuff.

@ridge One thing important that I realized later in the game - for the daily items at the store, buy them all if you can even if you don't like them. You'll eventually get a catalogue in Resident Services where you can always buy things you've bought in the past (but you should have bought them once before, otherwise they will not appear in your catalogue). So make sure you're always getting at least one of everything.

Is there a benefit of getting things I don’t want?

Honestly, no. If you know you're not interested in an item then don't get it. If you really want your catalogue to have every item, then it doesn't hurt.
