There's a thread covering this where one helpful dude posted an image in the underground caves that has the perfect spot for farming, you'll need one near end game ability but using that method I made 200K in no time at all. Just search "money" or "gold" and you'll find that thread.

Remember that candle bags depend on LCK first and foremost. Augment Gold does nothing to increase them.

Location: Forbidden Underground Waterway, right under first save room in the area: https://imgur.com/a/fD0t4vw

Equipment: Any Luck boosting gear you have

Shards:
* Passive: Augment LCK Rank 9 / Grade 9 - Easily farmed from a Deathtrap in Oriental Sorcery Lab; my testing indicates doublestacked Augment LCK beats doublestacked Augment Gold for this
* Manipulative: Accelerator Rank 9 / Grade 9 - From racing the ninja in Den of Behemoths, first race is semi-challenging, after that you can use the Accelerator and beat him every time for very quick Rank 9
* Skill: Augment LCK Rank 9 / Grade 9, Augment Gold Rank 9 / Grade 9, Detective's Eye Rank 9 / Grade 9 - From the Seekers found in the dry parts of Forbidden Waterwayenemy, fully ranked up it auto-collects items and gold within a radius from Miriam, so you don't need to touch the bags to collect them

Other:
* Max out MP Quickcharge by crafting and cosuming food items (8.0), that way the Accelerator won't drain your MP and most of the candles will yield gold rather than roses.
* Max out Luck by crafting and consuming food items (+24).
* Beat OD in the Ice Tomb (you need to have Tome of Conquest checked out), then meet him again in the Library and check out all the books - that will include two Luck boosts and two speed boosts

Start up Accelerator and just keep moving between the candles labeled 3 and 7 on the screenshots. 40k-60k gold a minute.

This is completely false, 30 seconds of testing can demonstrate it. I switch off the passive, I'm getting 10/50/100 gold per drop, I switch it back on and I'm getting 100/500/1000/2000 per drop. It's not even a small difference. On the other hand double stacking Augment Gold seems to have no further effect, though it's possible it weights the calculation further in favour of higher quantities.

Okay... my error I guess, I already had it to 9/9 before I started comparing.
In that case it still makes no sense to equip Augment Gold in your skill slot, though, just upgrade it to rank 9, grind to grade 9 and get the benefits from the skill shard version.

I disagree completely...

Double Equipping Augment Gold >>>>>> Augment Gold Skill+Augment Luck Shard.

Augment Gold has a FAR bigger impact on what drops from candles then 10 luck does and yes it stacks (as everything does in this game).

Now if ALL augment gold does is make it possible to get 500/1000/2000 gold drops, then I agree it isn't worth double equipping. But in my experience my gold gains increased stacking that shard (though it could be placebo).

For me, it's finding an area where you can HULK SMASH everything really fast. Any place with a lot of lamps or near a save point are good. Shards are worth 300 each. I would grind for shards at the early stages

At grade 9, Augment Gold as a skill passive already gives 2k bags. You'll never see 50 or 10 G ever again from candles with thr skill active. I don't think it matters to stack them up. I can't test the rankings right now, though.

I don't see much difference between doubling up Augment Gold or LCK while farming gold from candles at this point. I don't think LCK affects candle drops at all - no significant difference between a 63 LCK stat and a 120 one with either doubling up Augment Gold or turning them both off.

Gebel's Glasses are vital if you want to avoid mana roses while running with Accelerator. Even with maxed out MP quickcharge (my max is 8.0/SEC, all food eaten), the MP gauge still depletes a bit and occasionally gets a candle to drop a rose.
