Like for you to get a mount, you have to do a quest where you are swindled out of half your gil, in exchange for what you think is an extremely rare item, but happens to be a chocobo egg. Which in turn, you raise and it becomes you first chocobo mount .
It wouldn't work because people would transfer their gil to a muel or give it to a friend temporarily, get the choco egg, and transfer it back.
