		+	** [Jack 2.2.3] The promise reward/gift option requires you to give reward or gift of significant value, otherwise it will give the slave bad mood of cheap gift/reward and reflect that if you ask her how she feels. However, currently it's bugged and the negative mood is immediately removed after giving another cheap gift/reward.

	It is not worth pursuing quality bonus since it at best pays whatever quality slave you offer: if you turn in a A+ slave for a D- contract, you're paid A+ contract equivalent at best (assuming not damage product). Since you've probably spent more time raising the rank, you will receive a reduced time bonus, so you're really just losing money. If you are able to train high rank slaves, acquire slaves yourself and sell them at auction is a way better choice (payout is usually more than double of contract).

		+	==Guild Contract Speed Bonus and Slave Laundering==
		+	You can turn in any slave for guild contract and receive the speed bonus based on contract day, not days you own the slave.
		+	As such, you can train a market slave toward a certain specialization, savescum the contract and turn in the contract on day 1 to receive ridiculous speed bonus. If on average you spend 30 days training a D- slave and do only D- contracts, you will be getting 650 payout per D- slave if you do day 0 turn in comparing to 350 payout on a 30 day turn in, almost getting double the spark for the same amount of effort.
		+
		+	Moreover, slaves offered by guild may be generated with extremely good values even at D- contracts, effectively allowing you to spend 20 sparks on a bad slave to turn in the D- contract and pocket the high quality slave for high quality auction sales. (Currently the game does not prohibit you from auctioning guild branded slave).

 ==Guild Quality Bonus==
 Just because your first guild contract is for a D- or D+ rank slave, doesn't mean you have to give them a D- or D+ rank slave. Do your best to give them the best slave you can (even if you have to take out a loan to do it). The quality bonus is worth far more than the contract itself, even if you end up turning in the slave a little bit late.  You also will probably be able to skip over the rather unprofitable C ranked contracts.  Remember, doing guild contracts is one of the least profitable ways to sell your slaves, you probably only really should be taking them to rank up your guild reputation. So you can probably save a lot of time(and thus money) here by simply training higher ranked slaves from the start.

 ==Money from fogs (version 2.2.3)==
 Blindly selling F ranked slaves from the fogs used to be a great source of easy money in previous versions, but it was nerfed so you cant just live in the slums and make bank. But it still is a decent source of extra money in the mid to late-game IF you know what you are doing.
 Assuming your guy has enough stats and items to fight in the fogs, you also need to get your assistant to S rank alchemy (send her to school if needed), rent a lab for a decade (remember to cancel on the 9th, otherwise you'll get charged for another decade) and make some Philter potions. also Rent a dungeon.  The trick here is to trick the sub-purchaser or Farid that your goods are good.  Once you get your slave, simply lock her in the dungeon for a while till she feels less rebellious (not too long, she probably has a baby fiend inside her). Once her thorns (you /do/ have a raven crown by now right? fog fights are much easier with artifacts) are in the single digits, take her out, use domini dictum to force her to do whatever you want.  Whatever you want being: explain position and threaten to hopefully get fear up to 2, a philter to increase devotion to 1 and finally encourage followed by a whole bunch of drugs to make her high as a kite.
 She should now be D- rank (or a few training sessions away, and she certainly has the energy from the drugs to speed through them), and sellable for 250 bucks to the sub purchaser.  yea, she'll probably be back to -F rank in the morning, but by then she is someone else's problem, and you walked away with a good ~200 in the bank after the dungeon rental, spells, potions and drugs.
