I've made around 12,000,000 gold in WoW over the last few years. I'm ashamed to say, I've "given away" much of this amount. Ahem. I'm not going to say that I'm around $10,000 richer than I used to be, because that'd breaking rules. But maybe I'll just whisper it.
There are a few rules I've followed in WoW.
1. Never hack, never cheat, never exploit.
2. Never invest into gold. Money should flow to the producer.
3. Never trust anybody on the internet. Understand the risks of RMT economy.
4. Understand, that the game is not the real money maker. The game is a way to combine money making with enjoyable activity. Look, it's way more fun than flippin' burgers.
5. Look for effective ways to generate income rather than one-off deals.
I will follow the exact same rules in D3. If you can follow them too, I will teach you the wisdom of working an in-game auction house.
