It’s easy to mistrust Tom Nook when you think of him like a Landlord, coercing you to improve your house so he can charge you millions of dollars, but I feel like that’s one of the most common misconceptions about what he is in relation to the player. He never actually “owns” your house, you don’t continually pay him _rent_ to live there. He doesn’t have rules about what you can and can’t do with the property, it isn’t his. It’s always yours. He’s really more of an independent contractor. He builds your house, and expands it or customizes it when you ask him to, and you make a one-time payment for the service. Pretty reasonable guy imo

Next time you dig up bells from a glowing spot, plant 10,000 bells instead. anything above 10,000 has only a 30% chance of working, and a 70% chance of only rewarding you 10,000 bells instead. and anything below 10,000 has a chance of either 5,000 or 1,000 rewards. But if you bury 10,000, you're guaranteed 30,000 bells as a reward. Also, save your weeds for Leif, he buys them I think 2x the rate Nook does. and always try and go for the hot spot items in game every day, its a good way to use up extra resources like hard and softwood and rewards you a lot of bells. Hope this helps!

[@cottoncandy113]

THESES ARE THE FACTS I WANT!!!!

[@nicolezeb5167]

Thank you! Here's some more facts I didn't share! Yellow balloons floating in the sky have about a 50% chance of giving you bells,so pop them for bells! Also, this is probably already known but if you dig up fossils that you already have in your museum, or if you've completed your museums fossil exhibit, still dig them up and get them appraised! It earns you more bells to have specifically appraised fossils than normal purple ones, so its worth it! Also, keep 17 non-fruit trees on your island. Every day you can get 2 furniture, 5 wasp nests and 10 different bells from trees, but they have to be from different trees. You can't get two bells from the same tree, etc. So having exactly 17 non-fruit trees, allows you to keep track of all your trees and what you get every day! Another thing, if you have too many nook miles and don't need to use them for going to different islands, use them on either nook miles tickets or bell vouchers. I say either, because both can give you a lot of bells. One bell voucher costs 500 miles, and gives you 3,000 bells when sold. One Nook miles ticket costs 2,000 miles, and gives you 10,000 bells. So for 2,000 miles, you can get 10,000 bells from a nook miles ticket, or 12,000 bells from 4 bell vouchers! I say it this way because you have to have a lot of patience in order to print out multiple bell vouchers from the very slow machine, but if you're willing then it can help you get a lot of bells! Hope this helps! I'll post again if I find any more tips to share!

[@Ghost_Butter]

God. Bless. You.❤️

[@TheKinglaharl]

Also if you plant 20,000 bells instead, if it comes out as 3 bags of 10,000 you still make 10,000 profit. But if it's 20,000 you stand to make a 40,000 profit. Meaning there is always a net profit but a chance of something more. If you plant 30k you're guaranteed to atleast get your money back, but it can also triple to 90k. Making both of those amounts completely acceptable for both loss prevention and profit making

[@annabelleharvey6730]

the most important part, DO NOT plant 4k-9k OR 40k+, you may lose money instead of making money!

New Horizon was actually released two days earlier where I live, because all stores had to close on the 18th due to Corona. So if you had a pre-order, you would be able to pick it up on the 18th (only pre-orders though). This actually caused some funny instances, because players with hard-copies were able to play early while players with download codes couldn't play until the 20th when these codes were activated. My best friend had a download code and had to wait while his boyfriend was already able to play the game^^

[@RainbowEssence-c3w]

Lol yeah, that happened to me actually. I preordered a hard copy of the game and got it a day early because the store I ordered it from knew it'd probably have to close due to the coronavirus. They told me not to tell anyone or post about it online and keep it totally secret 'cause technically they weren't supposed to do that. I thought I was special and got mine a day earlier than everyone else, imagine my disappointment when I went online the next day and found out actually tons of people got the game early... Still, at least I got it one day earlier than those who bought the digital copies, right? It ended up coming back to bite me in the butt though when it came to preordering a copy of Persona 5 Royal, since that one did get delayed for me due to having ordered a physical copy. Oh well!

The best consistent way of earning bells is selling gold roses. There are several prerequisites for this: Getting a 5 star rank on your isle to get the gold watering can recipe and getting black roses plants on your isle. You need the gold watering can to breed gold roses out of black roses. Each gold rose is 1k bells. They regrow every 2-3 days after being plucked. If you got like a whole plot of land placed with them, they are the best most consistent way of earning bells in the game. Was able to consistently earn 200k bells every 2-3 days. Edit: you can fill your entire isle with furniture you crafted to get the 5 star rating. It does not require an exorbitant amount of bells to do this task and any beginner can do this easily after filling their island and getting the right amount of villagers.

As the parent of a 4 year old who pleaded with me to get Animal Crossing, I am less than impressed with the decision to limit each Switch console to having one island - we already had two full size consoles in the house, but now as a result of ACNH, Mr4 has his own Switch Lite, because like hell I am sharing a carefully curated island with a digging, chopping, destruction machine.

[@emilieelmore]

Here are my best tips for getting a lot of bells - Do not buy any Bridges or inclines, plots of land, or move any buildings until you can pay it off immediately. - Use the ABD A lot. You gain interest every time a new month starts. - Try not to keep a lot of money in your pockets because that makes you spend more. - Save your bells and only buy things when you can afford them and have money left over. - Don’t worry about paying off your loans to Tom nook until you want to upgrade your house. You don’t have a deadline to pay it off and it really doesn’t matter if you do or don’t. - don’t spend all of your money at the able sisters - sell random things like twigs or snowflakes to Timmy and Tommy - always check with Timmy and Tommy for the hot items. They’ll be worth a lot
