List your favourite ways of earning money in WoW
Here's what I did, it worked fairly well.
From level 1-50 I mostly bought things in the auction house and resold for more. On my server this worked well with wool, silk and linen. Every once in a while you might find an epic or rare item which you can buy below it's average prize (check thottbot and allakhazam for those).
From level 50-60 I got most of my money from Large Rope Nets which drop from Devias trappers in Westfall and selling discombobulator-rays (engineering-item). Of course this works best on pvp-servers.
From level 40 on you can farm turtles, with a bit of luck you will find golden pearls which sell for at least 20G a piece. If you can skin those turtles and sell their leather and scales it's even better.

I do the same, just yesterday someone was selling an epic shield for 40g I bought it and immediatly resold it for 60. I sell stacks of herbs, with plaguebloom and sungrass I can make around 8 to 10g a stack. Transmute arcanite can make me up to 5g. If all else fails I just solo cathedral about 30 times. The high inquisiter usually drops around 3 unsoulbound greens and the occassional blue.

Farm Dragon Whelps in Dustwallow Marsh.

I was level 39, halfway to 40, and had no money for my mount. I was questing in Dustwallow Marsh, a quest to kill Dragon Whelps. My fourth Dragon Whelp dropped an item called 'Dark Whelpling' (Pet that follows you, it can't do anything). Sold it on AH for 150g.

Made my day.

They have a small dropchance, though, but mostly they're on AH for 100-200 gold. At least on my server.

Another suggestion; if you want to be a money-machine, get skinning and mining and sell everything on AH. I promise you you'll get loads. A guildie of mine, at the same level as me (58), can afford his epic mount now. Even though it's his second character, and he has experience, it still gets you lotta money. Then at level 60 you can trade skinning for engineering/blacksmithing, or trade mining for leatherworking. Or just kill both professions.
