There are two good ways to get Easy Money in Soul Caliber II. One is to beat Arcade mode, it only takes about 5 minutes for experienced players, and you get 100 gold for doing it. Another way is to do the few 'Gamble' Stages in Weapons mode. This puts you against a team of 5 opponents. you start off winning 300 gold off the first one, and this doubles after you beat the second one, and so on. However, if you lose one battle you lose all the money you earned in the earlier battles.
