easiest early cash (in SP) is to find a certain wreck in the badlands (Flint) that gives you 20 cardamine.. then go sell it at manhattan and it'll net you 30,000 credits not hard to do even if hostile with outcasts and rogues because they dont use cruise disruptors that early in the game so you can run. Just watch out for the radiation around the wreck.

What is a wreck??!

I lurve freelancer[!

A special thing.
It's the wreck of a ship, it's mostly intact and has some goodies on board. There hidden.

There is no Silicon Heaven[! But where do all the calculators go ?

You could no more evade my wrath... than you could your own shadow[!

And to get those "hidden" things, you just have to do what you always do when you are encountering some stupid pirates.

And I am not talking about fleeing

But Cat? Even your short Manhattan <-> Pittsburg trip can be improved.

It's a good one yes. And you can make money easily with the minimum risk involved. Only a few rogues to worry about. And Junkers as well if you kill too many them. Rogues that is.

But anyway. The improvement lies in what you ship to Pittsburg. You see, if you buy water for 15 and sell it for 30, you have, of course, a 15 profit per 1 you ship. But there is even a better commodity to ship from Manhattan to Pittsburg.

I am not going to tell you that. Just find it out for yourself

The Way i got easy money was foolishly using a memory editing program that screwed up the game...or so i thought...i went to the astroid field and found a wrech that was like level 10 weapons and that rose me to like level 16 or something so i got to go on another mission. DON'T USE ANY MEMORY EDITING PROGRAMS ON FREELANCER!!!!
