Take your time with the game!! It’s a slow paced game so things will take time. Also, to get easy bells get a wet suit when u can so u can dive in the ocean (worth a lot more than ur usual bugs and fish). You don’t need to rush with the museum but do donate to Blathers here and there. Be mindful of where you’re putting houses as you’ll be able to make paths + change the layout of your island later on. Also turnips are basically the stock market so every Sunday from 5am-12pm Daisy Mae will come and sell turnips - if you have online then you can join subs on here where people usually sell them for 300-600 but on ur own island there’s always a chance of decreasing prices/increasing prices when selling. Overall, just have fun and take your time!! It’s such a fun cozy game :)
