How to unlock the Fat Cat achievement in Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord - Definitive Guide
I will carefully explain how I did this, this has to be followed to the letter and in order.
This will also upgrade trade significantly, but its hard to push it past the learning limit wall without 5 focus points.
You can do this with less than the amount that I will tell you, but to be safe, and quickly profitable, I would advise copying my ratios.
To my knowledge the town with the least iron on average at any given time is Sanala in the Aserai territory, go there with at LEAST upwards of 50k gold, 200 iron ingots, and 75 steel ingots, visit the town, then back out so you are DIRECTLY at the entrance to the town.
Wait for a caravan (does not matter from which faction) hit X to slowly make the caravan get next to you so that you can talk to it without moving AN INCH and purchase all iron ore, crude iron, wrought iron, iron ingots and steel ingots from both the caravan AND the town. It is okay if the town has a ton of iron weapons or silver ore
Talk to the caravan and purchase EVERYTHING he has, he should have at least 33 sumpter horses, as he did every time for me, which will increase your carrying cap. The point of this is to raise the amount of gold he has to barter to get you more percentage of the fat cat achievement in one go. Give him one piece of grain in case you exit the trade menu as you can't talk to him if he has no items.
Now sell him as many iron ingots as he can buy without his money going into the negative. He should have a bit of gold left, but not enough to afford one ingot. Then back out.
Trade at the town and sell it ALL 75 steel ingots. This presence now makes iron considered "common" in the area
Go back to the caravan and buy back all the iron ingots, they will now be locked at a low price and will not increase as you slide the bar like most items do.
Go back to the town and purchase all the steel back, don't forget this.
Repeat with the next caravan, when you sell the iron ingots to the next caravan, THIS is the point were you'll get like 6 trade points each time. Remember to always purchase all iron from each caravan AND the town as running this transaction with either of them holding one piece of iron ore will mess up your trade margins considerably.
Enjoy the trade perks and doing wars with this annoying achievement off your mind :)

How long does this take? I'm just making around 20k profit per caravan. It will take like 50 caravans....

It’s as fast as your dillgence, doing it by legitimately selling animals and trade goods would take an eternity
It’s also based on the net profit from the initial transaction to the next, NOT only net gold that you’re extracting from the caravan after many transactions. I can’t remember how long it took me, but i doubt it was over 45 minutes

Probably you can get it very quickly, pick up cheap goods in the cities and look for a city where there are 100,000+ in stores. Save in a separate slot. Sell all previously purchased goods that are marked in green (this requires a certain skill in trading) and load. The trophy has a cumulative effect, so after about 15-20 times the trophy will drop. It works similarly with 100 tournaments and killing 10,000 enemies personally.
Ps 15-20 times, because the trophy takes into account the difference between your purchase and sale (bought grain for 3 sold for 20, 17 coins are taken into account)
