Fill all but one of the spaces in your inventory with 
items (such as health and mana potions). Place 1 gold 
piece in the remaining free square. Have 5,000 gold on 
the ground, ready to be picked up. Make sure your 
inventory is not displayed on the screen, then pick up 
the money. Your character will state that he or she can 
not carry any more. The 1 gold piece in your inventory 
should now be changed to 5,000, with the other gold 
remaining on the ground. Repeat this process to get 
as much gold as needed.
