Buy crafting/gathering rings from the NPC brass/silver. The silver ones will give you back silver ingots you can resell for most or all of your costs back. Any fieldcraft materia should be sold until you have enough gil to keep leveling your desynth skill. I sold about 2mil in demi materia I/II. Once you are beyond leveling off of silver you will need to make/break items. I just looked for items that took 1 material that was cheap and did those until they gave no more skill. Also, equip cheap crafting jewellery so you can be making materia while making/breaking for desynth skill.
