So, let's talk Gil.

I think the more pressing question is, how do you go about getting gil once the story and side quests are exhausted?
Lvl 50 FATEs give ~100 gil. Lvl 50 Leves give about 500-600, but you can do, what, 6 per day?
So other than crafting and selling your goods, how are people at 50 making cash? In particular, how are people who only have a combat class at 50, making cash...

I don't think you will make much gil from only combat unless you farm animals which drop mats needed for things. But, straight dungeon running? Not much to make there besides the little pieces that drop or selling minions, which have dropped considerably.
As for gearing alts, Ameretat; doing FATEs should give you enough seals to easily gear up alts with the stuff from your GC.

That's a good point, well made. One that I did consider seeing as I have an immense surplus of seals and sitting on the rank cap, but I didn't really consider the grand scale of JUST how many fates I'll have to farm to level. I thank you for pointing out the oversight I appear to have performed.

It however, unfortunately, still doesn't help with the repair cost problem. I suppose only time/experience will fix that particular issue.

sell materials you get from trash mobs in dungeons, sell minions, some dungeon gear can also be sold
