I paid 13k gold for a Battered Hilt off the AH...for my alt.
I apologize for my transgressions.

Now I have about 37k gold on my account, which means I would be at 50k gold total. I just want to thank everyone here, this community is amazing. If it wasn't for all the information and helpful feedback I would have 1k gold total prolly.

Yes I am considering this a milestone 50k gold even though I spend a big chunk of it. lol.

Sinned?

So I figure the 40k I spent on the crafted legs and boots for my Paladin-alt were a giant sin aswell? :(

Spending gold is not a sin, it's in fact the sole reason to gain it for most players. What's the point in collecting more gold if you can already buy anything you want? (Well, for the fun of it, but that doesn't make spending gold bad.)

33K on Bottomless Hole bags here. We spend money with the best of them because we know we can make it back.

The transgression would be if spending the 11K prevented you from buying something you really need later, and 37K is a respectable buffer. We'll let you off easy with only 20 lashes.

Self restraint is only half of the equation to making money. You have to reward yourself with a small shopping spree at every major milestone to keep your motivation up to hit your next target.

At some point in life, it becomes your responsibility to make your own birthdays special days. Same goes for hitting gold-milestones.

This right here is what being a proper AH players is all about.
The value of 10k to a proper AH player is nothing as you can, and will, get it back within a day/week. When you get above 30k and have your gold sinks then all their is to do is make more because its there...we dont actually NEED it.

In RL you always keep grounded and understand the value of things regardless of how much you have. In wow the value diminishes the more you have.

I was about 700g away from reaching 30,000 gold and my friend was at my place and found some gear he REALLY wanted for his druid - so I bought it for him... itw as 5,000 gold :|

I was glad to have helped a friend, but a bit disappointed at coming so close to 30,000 and now being so far... but that motivated me to catch up as quickly as possible... about 24 hours later I was back up to 28,000... so I should reach 30,000 today :D What was interesting was seeing that I could (fairly easily) increase my daily earning if I was just more determined to do so - so I think as the other guys were saying, motivation's important.

You can buy anything in-game for less than 20K and as long as you don't spend all of your gold on a purchase you are golden. The main reason I enjoy making gold is the ability to get anything I want - so I do. Enjoy.

If I haven't said it before, Thank you JMTC community and Markco for making this possible for me.

Have a Happy New Year.

That is the purpose of having gold. To be able to buy what you want, when you want. As they say, we can't take it when we go.
