I just need to afford pots but i only have like 7k? Somebody tell me where to farm drops, sell certain items i can attain at 18, or just make a new character and sell what you would usually get when you job advance?
*Edit*
I saw that accessorys you get when you make the job advancement go for 80~100k, how do i transfer them o.o

To transfer items between chars on the same account, just store the item in the hotel then have another char access it.
I haven't made an accessory yet but I think you must be level 35.
If you are only level 18, you can't really farm much. There are plenty of guides located throughout the forum to help you with farming, questing and drops.

You have to complete the hotel storage quest first to store things in the hotel.
Accessories like the fighter's necklace are granted at level 16. You can make money this way by continuosuly making players, taking all their stuff, and keeping or reselling it. The only reason I would do this is to get myself two other accessories. This is generally a poor money making idea.
You get new accessories for most classes at level 35 like the Tramis Ring after finding a bunch of moons located in Beltranin forest.
Making money is a little different on each server. It is easier to make money on Adeline since everyone has so much more money, however, things are much more expensive. It is harder to earn money on Mariane, but things are much cheaper.
The best way to make money is to farm pet quest items. Items such as grapes, strawberries, aloes, firewood, wood, apples, leather, soul stone fragments, fairy powder, jureah's pendants, and even corn are required for the quest (NEVER USE THESE ITEMS IN PLACE OF POTS OR SELL AT NPC). Some items like leather and fairy powder are rare drops that can take a long time to collect as they only drop at certain levels (best seems to be between 32 and 44 for leather for example). On Adeline, leather may sell for 3-5 million kron which is enough to keep you in pots for a good while (run to candyvault and get some tiny pots). I cannot speak much for prices on Mariane since I log on infrequently to that server. It is easiest to start farming aloes. Take the money you get and invest in some good equipment. Move up to farming leather and fairy powder next. Actually, you may want to consider making an alt or two to just farm fairy powder, leather, and aloe. This can pay off big time, especially when you get to higher levels and things are really expensive. If you rely on good drops from normal grinding and playing, you may go through long stretches where you are really poor. With the money earned from farming, it can help leveling your main player to level faster by having a steady stream of income (convertable to xens). Also, having the ability to set up shop and keep it up when you are afk at work, school, or sleep will generally mean higher sales in terms of volume and price. Using white or yellow eggs to shout for items for sale can also be helpful. I use hundreds of white eggs and 2 or 3 yellow eggs a month.
I grind/aoe 1 hour a day on average.
Non-farming income: 300k-2 mil a day (including npc'd stuff)
Farming income: 3-?? mil a day (including npc'd stuff)
See the following thread that Yanane completed on farming. It is quite excellent.

Also, Fairy Spheres make excellent pots at low lvls. And they drop fairly frequently on the low lvl maps. The quest they are for gives so little kron/exp, you are better off using them as pots.

Fairy Spheres heal the same (50 hp) as a tiny hp pot and weight 2 less, so I know higher level players that farm those and use them instead of tiny pots.

Butter and Salt heal around 100 hp and only weight 1. They are also really easy to get.
I farmed a lot of those before pox to use them as SC pots replacement ;)
