At the current rate I make gil? Assuming I'm starting from 0 (gil I would be putting towards a house, not my current gil), about a month. That's on Hyperion, where they are 20m. That's excluding the fact that the price will drop during that time, and that I'd essentially be buying a FC house by myself. Now, will I buy a house at that price? No way. I'd rather sit on my gil and just wait it out until they are far cheaper.

It's shiny! But really, they could add any number of things to the game to spend gil on at any time (they just did this with housing). Gil might not be used much now, but that can easily change.

I for one would prefer to be the guy with hundreds of millions instead of hundreds of thousands.
