The real way to make gold.
Other than playing the broker, which isn't just buying low and selling high there is only really one way to make gold this patch. Because of the cap on vanguard dailies and BHS' attempt to dissuade bots in their game they have made it tedious to earn gold the last couple of major patches.
There are only two dailies we care about if you are trying to make gold. These are the Shadetop (Hydrath, Giant, Naga) and Shadecore (Fangspawn, Teralith, Fimbrilisk) BAMs. All you do is kill these bams and sell EVERYTHING you get from the rewards.
I do 5 characters of these bams daily which only takes me about 2.5 hours.
Dailies:
Shadetop Bams
== 40 Shadetop Tokens
== 40 Tier 9 Feed
== 80 Vanguard Creds
== 460 Base Gold
Shadecore Bams
== 40 Shadecore Tokens
== 30 Tier 9 Feed
== 60 Vanguard Creds
== 400 Base Gold
Math:
== 40(STtok) * 15 = 600 / 100 = 6 * 2400 = 14,400 Gold
== 40(Tier9) * 15 = 600 * 12 = 7,200 Gold
== 80(VGcrd) * 15 * 2 = 2400 / 200 = 12 * 16 * = 192 * 52 = 11,520 Gold
== 460 * 15 = 6,900 Gold
== 40(SCtok) * 15 = 600 / 120 = 5 * 2400 = 12,000 Gold
== 30(Tier9) * 15 = 450 * 12 = 5,400 Gold
== 60(VGcrd) * 15 * 2 = 1800 / 200 = 9 * 16 * = 144 * 52 = 8,640 Gold
== 400 * 15 = 6,000 Gold
With the actual shadetop and shadecore tokens you buy goddess' tear. Or if you want you can skip that part and bank the tokens until you have enough to craft a quatrefoil brooch which sells for easily 700k and can crit giving you two brooches.
With the Vanguard Credits you purchase MWA Boxes and open them for the potential to get more MWA from them and sell it.
Do not convert the Tier 9 feed to tier 10. Tier 9 feed is in higher demand at the moment due to slaughter gear taking around 4k-6k Feedstock for a full set of +12 slaughter. And of course anyone crafting imperator can just buy tier 9 and convert it themselves making it a win-win.
======
72,060 Gold PER DAY
In a month that's...... 2.16~ million gold
1.72m for 4 alts
1.29m for 3 alts
864k for 2 alts
432k for 1 alt
Amount of gold earned will fluctuate daily based on market prices for everything you sell.

Your post is a mess with garbage formatting I put it into a cleaner format and added the math behind it to better show how it adds up. My post is also straight to the point without any filler unlike yours.
True my formatting could be better and cleaner and I will make it better. But you simply show how u make from 6 IoD dalies you dont explain the other various ways you can make gold like MWA, battlegrounds ditching shadecore once you no longer need the tokens for glyphs and doing 5 BG dailies instead. All things you missed, a player needs to know a variety of ways not just 1.
2+ million after Key event
Like if hate
You don't ditch shadecore you use them to buy goddess tears. This is the fastest method, it outpaces every other way of farming gold on a gold/second basis. Doing anything else is wasting time. I based this on 5 alts because doing dungeons is just simply slower than doing IOD on other characters.
The item level for tier 3 bams is what? 408?
Maybe you should add to this guide, how to most quickly hit 65 and get the gear.
Also, a guide on how you kill so many bams so quickly. Many people take an hour just to kill the tier 3 bams on one character, let alone the tier 2. I'd say 5 hours for 5 characters, would be a more fair estimate.
My ninja's gear is +15 starfall and with average keening dawn motes i do all 6 sets in 20 minutes.
Mystic is +12 Slaughter and takes on average 35 minutes to kill the 6 sets. I have healer rolls so it could be much faster.
My brawlers are all in +12 slaughter and take 30 minutes average for 6 sets.
Before i geared my alts in slaughter I had +12 dread and my clear time was about 20% slower than it is now.
ILVL required for tier 3 bams is 402. You can achieve this with full dreadnaught +12.
Tier 2 bams? Probably 15-20 minutes in dread +12
Zerker is definitely one of the slower classes to clear bams, however I wonder if you had keening mote could you one shot them!? XD I do not play zerker but I'm getting the time estimate based off my lancers clear time which is probably similar if not a bit faster.
5-10 mins for teraliths and fimbirlisks, 10-15 for fangspawns. Fangspaws are assholes
So it takes you 20 minutes wearing maxed out slaughter and VM6. Most people that need money, need it to GET that kind of gear!
Applying that scenario to most people is BS, which is why I made my original post. Why would I even give a crap about money, if I already had 5 fully geared alts?
+12 dreadnaught ain't going to do tier 3 bams in 20 minutes. +12 dn on 4 alts also takes time...time you could be spending making money in other ways.
It's also funny how you have 4 of the best classes for taking down bams, and act like it's sooooo easy for everyone else.
Also, since they aren't reapers, that means you have to spend the time leveling them all from 0-65. That's even more time investment.
So maybe you should re-title this thread "The real way to make gold (if you already have 5 fully geared brawlers/mystics/ninjas.)."
And I'm almost certain you need ilevel of 408 for tier 3.
Right now I have my dailies set up on my Archer like so:
x2 DFNM
x1 CS win
x1 Arena
x4 CW
I can't even manage Gillie on my Archer right now or I'd do x4 of those.
