How to unlock the Millionaire achievement in Stardew Valley - Definitive Guide
Here are some tips to net 1,000,000 Gold
+ As you may, or may not know, some crops are worth much more than others due to base value, growing time, and number of harvests. These 3 are MUSTS for growing:
Spring - Strawberry Seeds
Summer - Blueberry Seeds
Fall - Cranberry Seeds
They can net you a lot of cash, even more so if you use fertilizer, you may even make them gold star crops.
Planting crops in a 3x3 pattern gives you a small chance of growing a GIANT version of that crop. Instead of 9 pumpkins, you might get 20+ after "breaking" the large one, and that's a lot of money.
+ If you can, turn your crops and produce in to their more lucrative counterparts. Milk - Cheese, Eggs, - Mayonnaise, etc, these sell for anywhere between 50g to 200g more, depending on the produce and quality.
+ Fishing and mining are pretty lucrative too, despite how much a pain in the ass fishing can be, if you level it up enough, you can make plenty of cash (or turn those fish into dishes). You might also hook something else other than fish.... ;)
Mining, you can unearth several precious gems, and depending on your skills level, obtain more than one per "harvest". Ores can sell for several hundred each, and stack fairly quickly, so don't turn your nose up at them!!
+ Seed Maker and Wine FTW. These two things can make you a TOOOOOON of cash. Wine sells for 400g plain, but up to 560g, if you dedicate a few casks to wine and you'll be set. Wine ages and is worth more as time passes, at 56 days, it will be "Purple" quality and sell for double the base price.
The Seed Maker can turn any crop into seeds, 1-3 to be exact. A full grown Ancient Plant, planted at the beginning of Spring, can earn you about 5,000g in its lifetime, and that's assuming it is of normal quality and you have no perks to increase the value, and that's just ONE plant.
Best of luck to ya!!

Unfortunately this one bugged for me, if anyone knows a fix other than a second playthrough that would be very helpful!

Has anyone found a fix for this being bugged, outside of a second play-through?

You should be in your second year by now. This should come in no time if you maintain high profitability utilizing the best cash crops, gems, and fish.
However, if you also have your Greenhouse built and at least one Ancient Seed, I suggest starting to fill it with cranberries until you can start to replace them with Ancient Fruit.
- Ancient Fruits take 28 days to grow, then remain planted (like cranberries) and reproduce a yield every 7 days.
- Using a keg, you can turn a single fruit into wine over another 7 days. This will take the value of the crop/fruit and multiply it by 3.
(The price for wine is unrelated to the quality of the crop.)
- Additionally, with the "Artisan" perk that is obtainable at Farming skill Lv. 10, the value of all artisan goods (cheese, mayonnaise, beer) is increased by 50%.
(You can get more Ancient Seeds using the "Seed Maker" which is craftable at Farming skill Lv. 9.)
NOTE
This achievement is related to:
Greenhorn: Earn 15,000g
Cowpoke: Earn 50,000g
Homesteader: Earn 250,000g
