You might not think it's any good but if you cut enough wood to fill your inventory and sell it, it's pretty good cash. Especially if you have high stamina. I make about 250-400 gold an inventory depending what I'm carrying.
If you want to make money, learn the banish enchantment. It makes an iron dagger worth over 1000 gold at a store... seriously. If you find a weapon with the banish enchantment, buy it (or pick it up or whatever), disenchant it, and let the money roll in. ;D
I occasionally enjoy Skyrim. I've decided to make a character of every race. So far, I have:
Cat wizard, my most played character. He is a master of magic. And a cat. Only ever gets magicka on level up. Otherwise, not much else to say, gameplay-wise. RP-wise, he's one of my more down-to-earth characters. He is pragmatic and confident. He tries to do what's right, but he has a lot of blood on his hands. He is willing to do some pretty ethically shaky things to get power, because he can do good with power, and he sees himself as more fit to wield it than others. He's even used black soul gems before, though now he destroys them. He is neither stormcloak nor Imperial: as neither strike him as perfect, he sets himself against them both. He believes he alone can weather the evils of the Stormcloaks, Empire, Aldmeri Dominion, the dovah, the Greybeards and the Blades. He isn't too into making friends, because none strike him as ideal enough.
Backstory: He grew up in the Imperial City, on the street. He rolled deep with the khajiiti gangsters for a while, and joined what was basically Fight Club in his teens. As such, he has become an excellent boxer. He used illusion magic to cheat in these fights, which is one way he earned a living. He was eventually found out and forced to flee the Imperial City. Then ???? then he came to Skyrim and mastered all magic.
That went longer than I intended, so I'll swing by later to drone on incessantly about my Skyrim characters. Next post, I talk about my quartet of lesbian elf princesses.
My friend married Aelo the Huntress and she opened up a shop and gave him 100 gold a day, she's no merchant.
All spouses make 100 gold per day. They're useful, but I don't always get married. It's a little thing I like to call "role-playing".
Banish earns a lot, but merchants don't have enough money. You can wait 48 hours for them to restock, but meh, I'm impatient. As such, banish for weapons and carry weight for jewelry. Sell the jewelry to mages when you're buying spells. That way they don't run out of money to buy your stuff, because you're buying their stuff.

You can go to a major city and there will be at least 10 merchants around the city who you can sell stuff to.
At the moment, I have 100 smithing, so I've made my self a pair of daedric swords (I like to dual wield), and they each do 79 damage, plus one is enchanted with 10 points of fire, the other, 10 points of frost.
My question is, is there any way to raise the damage level? I'm level 33, so I mean I pretty much destroy every one and every thing with a couple power attacks (Alduin took less than 30 seconds to kill -.-), but I would love to have a couple of over smithed daedric swords, like 100+ damage on each.
And if your solution involves tons of money, don't worry, money is no object.
Oh, and by the way, for all of those all over dragonplate armor....daedric armor is actually more powerful/has a higher armor rating than the dragon armor, even though only 90 smithing is needed versus 100 smithing.
i think that the daedric stuff is better than the dragon stuff because the material is harder to get ... you kill enough dragons in the beginning of the game so that you have enough of their bones when you leveld your smith-skills up to 100, but the daedricyou won't find something that early ;D

dragonplate needs dragonbones? =o =( i guess i should have taken all those bones then xD i left them all because they are to heavy xD
Also, I've been having some frustrating problems lately. I have Skyrim for the PS3, and lately it's been freezing and slowing up. A lot. It has frozen on me twice in the last 30 minutes, and it slows down to a virtual crawl, and I have no clue why.
Ticks me off.
I thought it might correlate to the fact that my levels are going up, quests have been completed, items gained and stored, so it might slow it down.
Oh, you can go much higher than that! Full smithing, various different-leveled smithing potions, fully enchanted weapon that gives you a smithing bonus, all that can make your weapon dish out much more damage than that. And don't forget the extra damage percentage skill or critical hit damage.
