You _can_, but it’s certainly not easy. I’m hoping babelian’s Agoraculture 
proposal passes and adds another way to turn a profit, even if that mechanism 
is zero-sum as well.

Right now, you can turn a profit by

* Having someone pay you for a thing. I’m tempted to buy your stamp off of you, 
if you care to name a price, just as an example.
* Relatedly, creating stamps at low cost and destroying them at high cost.
* Authoring _and_ pending proposals with shinies, which then pass. The profit 
margin on this is fixed by rule, and is currently an underwhelming 1 sh. per 
proposal, but it’s still profitable.
* Judging CFJs called with shinies.
* Scams, probably
