All characters begin with an amount of wealth to their name in the form of Trade Units (TU), as dictated by the Resources field on the Priority Chart. TU may be spent on a wide variety of goods and services, all of which briefly summarized below. For a more thorough description, and a selection of guideline prices, see the individual pages for the respective categories.
Remember that all prices listed for any kind of equipment is the crafting cost - you can only buy items for this price at Character Creation - prices are usually twice as much, or more, once you're buying something in-game during a campaign!
