I'm not talking about things like Hesperian Cider, unless you're at that point in the game that you aren't doing anything else except grind.
I myself am attempting to grind up 15 points in an Orphanage Scheme to acquire myself a young protege, as well as level up my persuasive to 200 to become a tier two POSI.

Today I managed to obtain both my Laconic Prodigy AND my Overgoat today.
Now I have no idea what to do with my life.

Months, yes, weeks, no.

Let's see:
- The Affair of the Box gives 23 echoes for 14 actions, so ~1.64 epa.
- The Overgoat costs 11712.80 echoes.
- If you use all actions in a day (Exceptional Friendship helps here) you can use 24 * 6 = 144 actions per day.
So to raise the money in this method you'd need 11712.80 / ~1.64 = ~7129.53 actions.
And in total: ~7129.53 / 144 = ~49.51 days

Right now I'm trying to get through converting my remaining 1,951 Tales of Terror in Senses of Deja Vu. After I'm done, I'll need to head to Polythreme to grind for Romantic Notions to turn into Visions of the Surface to turn those remaining Senses of Deja Vu into Glimpses of Something Larger.
I was hoping to be able to get to Polythreme and back before the Feast, but that doesn't look likely. I've been taking too many breaks to get Collections of Curiosities in Wilmot's End every time the Tomb-Colonist card shows up.
While my end goal of Coruscating Souls is looking like it won't happen until the end of the year, having small, attainable goals in-between is crucial to making sure I don't get too burnt out on grinding.

Goal List:
Ratwork Watch + Infernal Rifle + Kingscale Boots Fluke-Core with a Fecund Amber leftover Ubergoat (Higher Watchful helps the rest) Scholar of the Correspondence (as high as I could get) Impossible Theorem Classic Short Story (maybe not, too chancy) 15 Notability -> Persuasive
If Heart's Desire is updated I will do that first. Or some nice new people at the Feast. Don't care about the Cider. The game doesn't track it but I've never had a boat trip from start to now.

I'm gearing up for a trip to the Iron Republic, with excitement and trepidation. My knowledge of what to expect there is hazy, but I gather that I could be challenged on anything or everything. Tricky. So I'm aiming to reach every target that I'd already set for myself - capped stats, maximising my treasured connections and quirks - and I'll chance it on other qualities I don't care about so much.

The Iron Republic is a fun place, but not too dangerous when you get down to it. The challenges tend to be esoteric rather than stat-based, and most of the things it checks for make only a small difference on the outcome of the challenge. If you're going there for ambitious purposes, though, I'd recommend getting a tentacle key first.
