What is the fastest way to get gold in Elder Scrolls Oblivion?

I am a mage and I need to recharge my staff. And I need to buy and make spells, but none of this can be done without gold. What is a way to make easy gold without cheating?What is the fastest way to get gold in Elder Scrolls Oblivion?
I believe if you go to Castle Skingrad after you give one of your vampire cures to the Count (the one who's wife is a vampire and needs the cure so she can die). Go back to him after you cure her, he will give you 2500 gold. You can keep clicking on "reward" and get as much gold as your fingers can handle. I was finally tired and got over 3 million gold. You can always go back to him and get more.



You might have to go into the castle, up the stairs and into his private quarters. I had to unlock the door to his bedroom then I woke him up and immediately talked to him before he got me for trespassing. When the screen comes up asking you what you want to talk about, click on reward and rake in the gold!
I like the arena. You can make a LOT of money doing it at first, and you don't have to be very strong to beat it. Also, get alchemy up and collect every plant you see and you can make thousands off that alone. At some point you will not even need money anymore, because magical items and such will be what you use.



Good Luck!What is the fastest way to get gold in Elder Scrolls Oblivion?
The easiest way is to collect stuff, Join Thieves guild, and steal things and sell them.
Quests are the best way to make gold the ones which reward magical items are best for quick money since you can sell the item for large amounts.

try

Go Fish which is in weye outside the imperial city for a magic ring

The ghost ship of Anvil in Anvil Docks

and An Unexpected Voyage in the Bloated Float in the Imperial City waterfront(get a bed on bloated float).

Otherwise Id reccomend the guilds.What is the fastest way to get gold in Elder Scrolls Oblivion?
Get a job



Try the fighters guild or the arena



Also, try dungeon delving and selling your loot.
is this for 360 or pc,, if it is for the 360 there is a glitch that will let you get a lot of gold off of one person,



This glitch specifically occurs with the NPC Dorian, who lives in the Talos Plaza District in the Imperial City. If you kill him, you can repeatedly loot his corpse for gold, and the gold never disappears from his body. You can keep doing this until eventually after a few days his body disappears. (If you clear the hard drive cache on the XBox, by holding A as the game boots, his body will no longer be there). When collecting the gold, do not select "Take All" or the game may freeze.



The amount of gold that he initially has is random. To increase the amount of gold on his corpse, you can spend time bribing him before killing him. Repeatedly bribe him until his disposition has reached its maximum. To add even more gold, attack him then yield, and start over again.



If you are a stealth-oriented character or are just quick with a blade, weapon or spell, you can quickly kill Dorian without the alerting guards. If you are not able to kill him quickly, it is best to first corner him so he can not run away. A good place to do this is the upstairs room in his house. First unlock and open the upstairs doors, then go back downstairs, find Dorian, and hit him once. With him chasing you, run upstairs to his room, close the door, and stand in front of it so he can not run away. Kill him and loot his corpse for the gold. By this time, the guards will have been alerted, so be sure to drop any stolen goods you are carrying before the Imperial Officer shows up. Choose to pay your bounty, using the gold you just looted from Dorian. Once you've finished settling the tab, return to Dorian's house, retrieve your stolen goods, and start looting Dorian's gold.





not sure if it works for the pc
