How in the world do you gain Gil?

[Shneibel]

sell materia, prositute, sell meld, prositute bla bla bla

just kidding, Spirit bound, sell crystal & materials are the best income you can get atm, small but solid and guarantee compare to the tome mats.

Edit (add) : sell HQ materials earn much more if you willing to farm em and maybe make em and sell. And please dont sell 99 stacks, it is hell of annoying to buy, sell em as 10/20 or 30 max please, I always give up and go out to gather the mats myself everytime I see the stack of 99 sell when I really only need 10

I only have Blm50Since the release of the game i was able to make, no effort, 1mill gil. Last week someone hacked my account and stole all my gil and many items, gear etc... I was about to quit but i continued.

Since then, in just 1 week, 350k gil. How? Crafting, selling in market, and mining crystals (goldsmith50 and miner45)

I won't tell you.

Converting level 49-50 jewelry - NQ gives you 5x level III materia which sell from 8-20K each.
Cost - 10K (5 NQ jewlery pieces)
Makes - 50K minimum
Sell Tomb Materials - You can use tombs to buy potash and other high end materials and they sell for 30K+ each and cost 125 tombs I believe.

I mine shards while waiting for DF this brings in about 5k-7k an hour. once you hit a level where you can get crystals instead of shards that can net about 10k an hour. Spirit bonding gear is by far the best way that I have found two dungeon runs with ilvl 55 gear and 49 accessories can net you massive amounts of gil, but it can be a gamble sometime the ilvl55 stuff turns into level3 junk and you lose money. I level 49 accessories are so cheap you almost always make money regardless of what materia they turn into (excluding elemental resistance materia). Farming mats on DoW/DoM works too; hippogryph skins and eft tail sell well and you can spiritbond while doing this.
