Apartments need Rent

[Nepentha]

Then don't look at WoW.....

This is irrelevant. We're talking about FFXIV's housing system and your strange fixation with charging rent for apartments. You wouldn't be changing a thing with charging 10k a week. Rich players will be able to afford this without a problem. It's the players who don't have much gil to their names that'd be the most effected, the ones who the apartments are aimed at since it's low cost to open one.

Again, this is not a solution and SE is not going to implement it. Your time and imagination are better spent elsewhere.
