How To Get Rich in 10 Steps

This is a top ten list on how to get rich FAST on neopets!

10. Who needs books? Don't buy books. Who cares if they make your neopet smarter.Currently there is no point of intelligence points anyway.

9. Your neopet doesn't need fun. Why buy him toys? You don't need to. Just let him be bored and when he complains, say deal with it.

8. We don't care about stupid little 'pull the lever' minigames- they take np away- remember, you want to be cheap.

7. What's the point of having a house? Don't make one.

6. If you really care about all this stuff on the list, get the cheaper version. For example, just make a house of cardboard.

5. Let your neopet starve! Only use food you get from the omelet and the jelly. DO NOT BUY ANY FOOD!

4. Buy low, sell it high in your shop. See a complete idiot selling a paintbrush for 3,000? Buy it and sell it for 20,000 in your shop (or at an auction) and you've just made 17,000 np.

3. The Stock Market- buy low, sell high again. A stock market simulation- buy stuff that is selling for cheap, and when it gets high- SELL!

2. Game Challenges- challenge people at games you know you're good at- and you can win lots.

1. GAMES! If you are good at one game, thats 3,000 np a day. IF YOU ONLY PLAY THAT GAME! If you play all the games you like (probably around 20-60) every day, then you could end up getting around 30 or 40 thousand np (if you aren't that good! If you are awesome at these games you could get over a hundred thousand np per day! In only around an hour!). Some of the newer games like Chariot Chase and Darigan Dodge Ball give you lots of np really fast- so add a few more thousand. You can get around 150,000 by playing just a few games in ONE DAY!

Chariot Chase Guide

Chariot Chase is a somewhat new neopets game where you control a chariot around a figure eight track. The goal of the game is to try to race around the little figure eight track as long as you can- because you only have a few lives. If you run into another chariot, you lose a life. Out of lives, and its game over. Various powerups help you. I've been playing it for a while, but so far I've only seen two powerups- a clock and a pair of wings. A clock makes everyone SUPER slow, while the wing lets you fly over enemies, so you don't lose a life. Here's 3 tips:
3. Do not run into enemies! Its better to lose a place or two than to run into an enemy. Because you'll be playing longer if you dont run into enemies, and you'll also get a higher score.
2. Get the powerups! Its better to get the wing and go down a few places than to stay and first and crash.
1. Get a perfect start. While its counting down, hold up and the direction you want to turn. You'll get a start way before the others!
I hope I helped everyone having trouble with this great game! This is one of the easiest games to earn 1000 np, especially if you follow this guide. ;)

Ways to Train your Neopet

Laboratory Treasure Map

Very, very usefull! It can raise any stat, but it can lower any of them. If it goes lowers one of your stats, you can still raise your strength, defense, ect. However, be warned, it can change your Neopet’s appearence . But who cares when you can have unlimited stats at your disposal? To be able to use the Laboratory, you must buy ALL 9 pieces of the Laboratory Treasure Map.
Location: Puzzle Games

Coltzans shrine

This is easily the best way to level up in Neopia. This shrine can give you a stat increase, Neopoints, level increase, or items.
Location: Lost Desert

Kitchen quests

This is another good way to level up. If the total cost of all the items that you must get are below 2,500 NP at any level, do it. Several levels later it is the most useful, as it will cost 10,000+ NP less then what it would cost to go to a training school.
Location: Mystery Island

The Acadamy

I find it to be pretty useless. It only cost’s less then the training acadamy when your Neopet is at level 1-10. After that, it costs more. Only do it if the cooking quest costs alot of money. One downside is that it can’t be used past level 40. Also, it takes 4 hours, 2 more then the Training School.
Location: Krawk Island

Training School

Very useful, don’t use it at level 1-10. Afterwards, it will cost less then the Acadamy. Plus, it’s 2 times as fast and can be used from level 1-250.
Location: Mystery Island

Terror Trove Scratchcards

If you’re lucky it can raise your Neopet’s level, but its kind of based on luck. You get a level up about 1/8th of the time. Only use it if you need to raise your level and you can’t increase the other stats.
Location: Terror Mountain

Books

They can be used to increase intellegence, which has no use’s yet.
Location: Various

Guess the card

If you play this, it will eventually give you intellegence bonuses.
Location: Games

Poogle Solitare

when it was available, playing it will give you intellegence.
Location: Puzzle Games.

Cliffhanger

Playing Cliffhanger can increase your pet's intelligence.

Guess the Card

a cheap way to raise intelligence is to play the Guess the Card game, you rarely get an intelligence upgrade, but it's only 10np to play, and if you play the same card about 20 times in a row, chnaces are pretty good you'll get atleast one intelligence upgrade for only 200np.

Faerie Crossword

Playing the Faerie Crossword will occasionally give your pet at least one intelligence point. It does not seem to be restricted to lower intelligence or lower level pets.

How to get a Draik Neopet

Draiks are elusive dragons that can only be found in Meridell. They are one of two pets who can only come from items. And very expensive items no less!

You can only hatch a draik by obtaining a draik egg. Draik eggs come in red, blue, yellow, green, Ice, Darigan, Lost Desert and Pirate. Each of which will hatch draiks of their respective colors. Draik eggs can be purchased from the Meridell Food Shop ranging in rarity from 95 to 99. They are also considered Gourmet Foods. You can also get Draik pets from morphing potions or a transmogrification potion.

Once you’ve obtained a draik egg, you’ll need to take it to the Draik Nest. The nest has exactly the right temperature and conditions for hatching draiks. To visit it, click here.

You’ll also need to have no more than three pets when attempting to hatch an egg, as the maximum amount of pets is four. If you have four and you wish to have a Draik, you should either abandon one of your pets or get a Draik Transmogrification Potion. Using a Draik Transmogrification Potion is also a better option if you want your draik to be a specific gender, as you can't decide whether your pet will be male or female when you hatch an egg.
