    There is already a place like that in Balmung. Run by real players and "employees" controlled by real players.

    These ERPers are weird. Why don't they do that stuff in a game that actually supports it, like Second Life or something? >_>

    Depends on what you consider "a fair bit"

    Basically, what we need to know is the worth of Gil to normal everyday NPCs, since we adventurers are "special" in that we can work with amazing sums because of all the treasure we get from dangerous places.
    I found food to be a good indicator, since everyone needs it to survive. Also, we see NPCs shopping at the vendors, so those shops aren't adventurer-exclusive or something.
    (There actually even is a quest early on that has you pose as a costumer to check if the shops charge everyone the same price!)

    A normal meal is about 10-400 Gil depending on ingredients and location (for example, hotpot with meat and lots of vegetables is a lot more expensive than some simple breakfast porridge).
    A bottle of water is 4 Gil, a bottle of really shitty wine 10 Gil. Normal basic clothes go for 150-600 Gil (think of the aequivalent of a single T-Shirt or something).
    Quest rewards (they are what people are willing to pay you) are in that range as well when you are still only considered a normal person (early low level).
    They are basically saying "hey, run this errand for me and go buy yourself a sandwich or something".

    Of course, all of that is referencing the life of a normal Eorzean. Once we get to the topic of rich people, all bets are off.
    Since Gillionaire is a word used in NPC speech, we can at least be sure that they are in the range of player funds (which tend to be in the millions as well).
    Well, and then you have people like Lolorito and Manderville daddy, who are just out of everyone's league, but then again, they are kind of plot devices to introduce new stuff, so we'd have a problem if their funds were limited x)

    What all that boils down to is...you can survive on 50 Gil per "weapon polish", but it won't be a pretty life and you probably will have to live out in the streets..oh nvm, that's what the brothel is for, I guess

    You'll be surprised what people ask to do with lala's. We have soft skin, tight round butts and *quite* flexible.
