Some ways to get money for steam wallet (discussion)

[Mr.Zombie]

I love video games and I wanted a way to make money on my Steam wallet to buy other game. So I thought of an idea which is to buy Counter-Strike 2 Prime Status Upgrade with 15$. But is it worth it? Will I get things that I can sell at a good price? Will I get enough to sell to make up the amount or is it not worth it? Are there any other games that are better for making money? Any ways or suggestions?

It isn't a reasonable way to make money

Is it good over the very long term ?

Don't expect to become rich on Steam. Don't expect to make enough money to buy AAA games. Don't expect to be able to use wallet funds the second you manage to sell something for 10 cent.

Keep that in mind and you won't be disappointed.

Also, be aware that Steam is not a bank. Don't use it like one. If your account is phished and you lose all wallet funds/items, Valve will not return any of it.

No. It's a gamble and just like any other gamble, there's a few people that win big, a couple more that won a little and an army of sucker's left in the dust.

If you want money, don't gamble. Instead, go the solid road. That is, learn software development, learn game development and upload a game. Still not quite a guarantee for being able to quit your job, but a more solid (and less pitiful) aproach.

Speaking of jobs, software development is a sought-after skill, meaning not a bad path to a well-paid job. Not by any stretch. And with the amount of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ amateurs capering their way to success for decades, it can't be even that hard of a job (quite frankly, I'm sure some of the people I worked with are retarded and still manage to earn for decades).
