You will not enter in the History because you are rich in the game. And no one reasonable will praise you to be rich in a game. So... what's the problem with gils accumulation? What are the motive? Feeling some kind of exclusivity? In a game that will disappear and no one will record the richest in the game (since it doesn't mean and it's absolytly useless)?
Or people are bothered by all these useless gils? But it is a virtual money in a virtual world so what? It's not waisted since it has never been meaningfull in real life anyway.
Some people simply love earning money/gil. The reason as for why to do anything 'cuz the game will disappear one day applies to every aspect: Why do raids, savage or any hard content, and by extension, care about world/server first / day 1 races? Your e-fame will be worth naught once the server has shut down for good. Why farm glamours, do crafting/gathering? It won't polish your CV in any form (other tham maybe "muh team play skillz").

Sorry in case I misinterpreted the post.
