I’ve still got 20 levels to go until I hit 70, being at 50, I’m saving up for my mount at 60. Even though I now have what I need, that’s all the gold that I have currently. I was still able to save 600+ gold at 50 but I hear many say “wait till you hit 60+ you’ll have tons of gold from the outlands†but I also see level 70 people in chat and even guild chat saying they have nothing, why is this? Is gold easier to come by after 60? If so why do people at 70+ have nothing? Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t a lot of the gear used at 70 bought with honor or is it the thousands of gold you see the flying mount cost that breaks them? Or is it just bad money management?

[…] fellow guildie loaned me 100G to help me along.. I felt sooo stupid! (specially after writing about how can 70’s not have gold)It hasn’t taken long to remake that 100g but I may wait another week to repay him, I want to […]

Good point, when I was level 60 I hadn’t saved any gold for anything really, although I did have enough for my 60 skills. It took me until I was level 67 to get my Warlock mount (which is cheaper again), although I was able to get my flying mount 5 minutes after turning 70.
Since hitting 70, I have had times where I’m rolling with 1000+ Gold, and also where I have to go farm some greys to get repaired. It’s weird.
