Does this mean I can never transfer to a non-legacy because I would probably abandon this character at that point.

@LordSideKicks: They have already limited assets for legacy players, but I'm just a player who joined a Legacy server in Japan on the day after release since all of the servers were full. The limits they've placed on the free transfer don't even affect me since my total gil is around the 180k range (the limit is 3 million on the character and 1 million on every retainer).

But I'm guessing Lordsidekicks is joking since it really wouldn't hurt the extremely wealthy characters but only devastates the poorer players who barely survive with what they have.
