If I expect to make even a decent amount of gil, will I HAVE to take a crafter class along with my gathering?

I dislike crafting. I always dislike crafting in every MMO. I like going out into the world and gathering materials, but the actual "making stuff" part just doesnt resonate with me.

I understand that this means I will have to find someone to meld for me, when I get to that point. But I am wondering if just gathering and selling the mats can be profitable. At least enough that I can start saving up money for a FC room, and then a House. Or is it just not worth it without a crafting class?
