Unlimited Gold/Fast Archery Level Up in Skyrim On CONSOLE! (rare) and PC

How to Get the Gold!

I figured this out very early in the game when you get to the first town Riverwood. Look for a wood elf chopping wood named Faendal. I did his quest (delivered a letter and decided to side with Faendal) and he became my follower. Now if you talk to Faendal and go to the option that gets him to carry your gear (essentially trade with him) you can actually take his gold. HIS GOLD WILL REPLENISH! Essentially you can just trade with him take his gold (usually around 500 gold each time) then do a quest or wait a bit and trade again, he will have more gold! Either this is a glitch or since he is a wood elf it is possible he pickpockets town residents and this is how he gets gold.

Where the glitch works...

In certain areas you can take the gold, other areas it will not work. One area where I found this trick works is in the Town of Whiterun. This exploit seems to work best in the Jarl's Hall but also has works throughout the city of Whiterun. It also sometimes works when your just out exploring Skyrim.

The beauty with this at low levels is Faendal can also train you in archery. So essentially you can go into trade, get the gold, then level your archery. You can afford to pay for the training and he can train your archery to Level 50 before it maxes out. Having this super high archery gives you a huge edge and you can one shot all kinds of enemies!

I don't know if you can do this forever but it seems like you can. Also I've done this on the XBOX360, I have not confirmed if it works on PS3 or PC (however I don't see why it would only work on the xbox).

...might be useful to some (also the amount of gold you get goes up as you level)

I had some followers that carried gold. Not sure if they all do it or not, though.

I never knew this, sadly, Faendal is mad at me because I did not side with him on that quest.

How long do you wait? Btw great info!

I actually got him like right at the start. I didn't have to wait long between getting the gold. At one point in Whiterun i was able to get gold and level my archery in the same convo, talk to faenday again moments after and there was more gold. I'm not sure if maybe he pickpockets gold when you walk by people in town or something because he is the race that has the pickpocket boosts.

Maybe that is how my companion follower ended up with gold (they pick pocketed). Or looted perhaps.
