So is it true that CS:GO can get you profit from skins?

[shrooblooms]

Ive heard that CS:GO can make you lots of money, Is this true? Should i get CS:GO?

[Wolf Knight]

Should you get CSGO to make money...NO.

The type of trades you will have to make are not supported by Steam and any items/funds lost will not be returned.

Please read the Steam Trading policy and Scam policy first. We see plenty of people begging and crying that they lost items and money to a scammer. All those could of been avoided by staying within the steam trading policy.

You know how many people think they can make $$ off of CS:GO? Yes, there are some skins that people will buy for lots of $$ but the chance of you getting one as a prize from a crate is astronomical... I'm willing to bet you will spend more on keys to open the loot crates than you will make once you actualy find something to sell.

even if you are lucky and doing well in marketeering and trading. you are not really making money. the money stays on Steam unless you are willing the risk to get scammed while trying to get you money out of Steam.

No... There is an option to link your paypal account when you sell something from the steam market... Valve just takes a cut is all... I can see that the OP has played +200 hours of TF2... How much $$ have you made from that game?? Have you ever gotten any unusuals from a crate?? If so, how much did it cost and how much in total did you spend before you got the hat/wep/taunt?? CS:GO will probably be the same story if not worse...

no money will ever go into your paypal account from steam by selling stuff on the community market. it goes in your wallet and stays there. not matter how hardcore you link paypal.

Realistically, you don't make money from workshop things. You get steam wallet funds.
The paid mod thing in workshop backfired astronomically and was shut down after being alive for less than a week.

You're better off getting a job.
