What is the best weapon besides the sword of aeons and what is the best way to get money?

MONEY: stealing, coin golf, shove ha'penny.
WEAPON: Damage-wise: Solus Greatsword. but the best weapon is whichever your favourite is really.

1. Best non-aeon sword (or weapon, for that matter) would be the Solus Greatsword, which can be bought in bowerstone north for about 70k Or, If you marry Lady Grey and get her enough stuff and play a bit of hanky-panky, she'll buy it for you. The sword looks kinda like Kain's Soul Reaver (that curvy sword where the crossguard is made out of a skull), and lives up to its cool looks. The sword does 313 damage per hit, plus fire and sharpening damage

2. An easy way to get lotsa money is to rob the armorer in Hook Coast. The easiest way to do this is to get him to follow you to the tavern, at which point you but him five or six beers. When he's all swagering and stoned (shouldn't take too long, he has a terrible constitution for alchohol), run back to the shop and begin a five-fingered discount. He'll be at the tavern for at least twenty minutes, so steal at your leasure. There's usually a couple thousand dollars worth of gear, plus 1-3 augmentations lying around (one time he had the experience augmentation on display). Take the stuff to people who you know have good prices for it (armorer in Knothole Glade has the best prices for augmentations). If you don't want to be evil, then just go to clifftop path and kill a couple dozen undead to regain your good standing.

In my opinion the best weapon after the sword of aeons is the skorm bow... in fact I think it much better than the sword although the sword will do more damage but it's far more kool to catch your enemies or your victims unprepared.

To make lots of money just kill or take the owners of buildings outside their village... I find killing the more amusing

but once you'd gotten rid of them the shop or house will become available for purchase now don't sleep on it cuz new owners will come and you won't be able to buy em and make sure you've got enough money.. some places are quite expensive but they'll get you good rent money... now all you need to do is sleep three full days and you'll see the 3 bag of money sitting right next to the sign ready to be collected... say for example with one of my caracters I own about 85% of knothole and I make a good 11K golds in 3 days of sleep... eas money.

Another way is to get a house with trophie stands, get your most expensive trophies and hang them, sell the house, break in and get the trophies back, the house will now be available for purchase, buy it and set up the trophies and continue to do this for a while... it's a boring cycle but it pays out enough money... you can make close to 7K golds with good trophies.

The best way to make money in Fable is to own property. I didn't think this was true until my third time through the game. Just get a couple of marital homes and improve them to level three, put up your best plaques, and sleep for three days and take the rent. The Oakvale house is a good starter, it makes about 3500 gold every three days. You can sleep in houses you own without the guards getting on you about it.

Just keep collecting this money and buying more property, until you own a town and can get 12,000 gold every three days. Do this a few times, and you're golden. Just don't bother with the shops. At one time I owned all of Oakvale, Bowerstone North, Hook Coast, and Knothole glade. Then I sold all of Knothole and became very very wealthy. But then I gave all of it to Avo. Those dieties can be demanding... or greedy.

Best way to make money: killing stuff, owning good property

best non-legendary weapon: this depends on you, but i think its the katana hiryu cuz its fast and does about 215 dmg

In my opinion the best way to make money is to buy a house smash the door walk inside put your 2 best trophies on display,now sell the house(you sould have made some profit) and go inside and grab your trophies.

you should have more money and you will still have your trophies.

Repeat until rich.

Yeah, but doing the trophy trick is so time consuming. You get like two thousand dollars every twenty seconds or whatever. If you own property, you can get thirty thousand dollars in however long it takes to teleport to two different towns and run around from door to door. Do whatever works, obviously, but I've done both and find owning houses much much easier and less painstaking.

My favorite weapon is the katana hiryu
and the best way to collect money is to own property.
First buy all oakvale(the amount of money you get by renting this town is about 13.000G aprox.)

Then buy all knothle glade(amount you get by renting this town is aprox. 18.000G)

then buy all hook coast(money you get for renting 12.000 aprox.)
now that you are the owner... just wait 3 days and pass each town to get all money.
