It isn't rocket science to determine that you can really gain profit from Golden Well and Bellem Boxes. Though after the recent patches, the use of Golden Well has been unpopular leaning towards a not good investment or a not practical way to be earning money.

Many people believed that there isn't much profitin using the Golden Well and selling Bellem Boxes anymore but actually its still a decent way to earn extra income (take note that this relies largely on a server's economy).

Golden Well is located on Channel 1 of Thueringenwald Lakeside. It is directly outside the City of Auch. It is played like a lottery and it pumps out Gold Bars and/or Bellem Boxes (but mostly the latter). To play with the Golden Well simply open the inventory using Alt+V (so you can drag an item out of your inventory) and drag and drop any amount of Gold Pieces, around 40-50 should do, (common drop in Torsche's Mansion or bought from the Precious Ore NPC in Auch) on the well. Be sure to bring around 5000+ Gold Pieces to score more in the Well. Rinse and Repeat.

At certain point, you can hit the jackpot! Jackpots means that you can get a random amount of Gold Bar(it is said to score 1 Bar per 2000 pieces). A Gold Bar sells for 150,000vis to any NPCs. It's not possible to hit a jackpot of 100 Gold Bars which obviously results to 15 Million Vis!

The real profiting power of the Well are the Bellem Boxes! You almost always get bellem boxes from the well and so that's an instant profit (well not that instant actually). Anyway here's a rough calculation that should easily explain how the money making process goes:

1 Gold Piece = 165 vis
4,000 Gold Pieces = 660,000 vis

Dropping 40 gold pieces each time has has a chance to get you a Bellem Box.
Ideally 4,000 Gold Pieces should yield you 35-40 Bellem Boxes.
If you sold it for 17,000 vis in Market Manager to atleast get yourself to Break Even.
The Gold Bars should get your profit going.

Take note that the above calculations are for example only. It is advisable to get to atleast around 50,000 Gold Pieces to get a desirable amount of income. This assures you that you get enough Gold Bars to offset the lost you'll get if you don't get the ideal amount of boxes and the price. Also, do take note of the current price trend in the Market Manager NPC and strategize on which day or week to sell your wares.
