Not very.
I have to get off my computer EVERY SINGLE HOUR (because my sister >_> <_<) and on my main account, I got 6 sets of FoW(monk, warrior, ranger, assassin, elementalist and ritualist) and a voltaic caster spear for monk.
My second account only has 1 set of FoW and that's on my warrior.

I would like to thank all the people that were buying bunnies and eggs this weekend. Thanks to you I made well over 100k between the eggs/bunnies/cores. First time in a long time that I've had enough for something nice without wasting 8 hours waiting for something of value to drop. |
If people can make about 20k per hour, why are so many folks whining about removing loot scaling? So they can make 30k per hour?
Turbobusa
I make one or two k's here and there, save by buying normal id kits, and identify white objects. Easy money, no farm required

As the game is getting older money is getting more and more irrelevant.
Im was very good at making money in the past, but since I got max gold in storge I stopped caring about money.

22 months
One set of elite armor, three undedicated Asian minipets (Yeti, Naga, Oni), Req 8 15^50 Gothic Axe, about 25 other decent items to sell, more rare weapons (including a few good skin Q8 15^50s and a Q9 -2/-2 Eternal Shield), and 400k and 167 ectos.
I made most of this (i.e. everything except a few of the rare weapons) through merchanting. I started merchanting in June 2007 with an initial balance of...25k. ^_^

The most I had at one point was 325-ish K. Would spend whatever I had over 200k to get the Ecto and Shards to fund my FoW. Get back up over 200k, and repeat. Have bought 2 other elite armor sets since getting the FoW in Jan, including a set of Vabbian. Just by playing, I notice that my money goes right back up after buying something.
I don't farm, I don't powertrade. I just, er, play the game
Have 175k at the moment, but should be back at 200k soon enough.
I don't need req8 e-peens, or stacks of EnS in storage to feel rich

17months. Been playing only pvp for the last few months (used to be pve farmer before that). I had about 400k in storage last week and for some reason decided to farm again for what reason I haven't decided yet, maybe to get some of the new skins 
A week later and storage is maxed with plenty spare. Now to decide what to buy!
If you really hate them that much you can sell to me

StormDragonZ
Played since December 2005.
I have five characters. All have some kind of Marhan's Grotto elite armor. Prior to that, everyone had Kurzick NonElite Armor.
I've spent 1.16 million gold on Signet of Captures for four of the five characters having Legendary Skill Hunter (and my 5th is working on it).
I've been lucky enough to buy things for very cheap, but rarely do I sell gold items or just about anything unless it's a green item or Elite Tome.
Also, I've also been given things just for no reason from others. Wasn't too long ago someone gave me 6k gold just because "he/she was too rich and needed to make room..." (don't ask, I don't know why either)
Most of the time, I'm a garbage collector. I pick up drops no one else wants and sell them to the merchant.
I currently have around 325k+ in my storage.

I can make money well enough(CoF is the best thing to ever happen to me),but then I spend it impulsively.Although I have managed to get 3 Sets of elite armor,and am working on my 4th.16k in storage at the moment.
Anyone wanna hypnotize me and stop me from buying crap on a daily basis?

Hmm, well if I want to I can easily earn 100k+ a day in different ways of farming or powertrading but I'm tired of all that.. And I don't play much anymore.
For over 1 year ago I knew a guy ingame who was soo rich, but too lazy to sell anything for himself, so I sold all this endgame weapons for him and got a cut from it, earned alot. But one day he wanted me to sell a weapon for him for 100k+xxe
that was worth less than 100k.. He went so crazy, calling me stuff while
I was on his ignore list, for like 30 minutes.. Haha..

is more than you can imagine an acceptable answer?
Spaced Invader
I can Imagine 10 accounts with max. characters each, every slot of the storage and all characters filled with full stacks of armbraces, ectos, Ghostly pets or perfect r7 Crystallines.
So you better have more than that.

Sigh.
26 Months about 1,7K Hours.
No money wasted on anything dumb I have 0.0000 in my bank and have like 10K in my inventory. I have accross all my characters 1 set of 15K armor. Tried multiple things like 55 HP monking and chestrunning. (chestkeys cost more then the drops are worth ( I never gain anything max or with good things on it (+29 HP FTL!)))
Max I get is about 3K an hour when you still got good loot from the Hydra's in the crystal desert with my monk.

You apparently had no idea what that spear was worth, and you don't even know a voltic wand is worthless?
You can't/couldn't trade, period.

3 Perfect Tormented Weapons, 2 Shields , 1 Sword.
3 Elemental Swords
Perfect Rare gold items on all Chars ( 8 Chars )

A11Eur0
every character I play regularly has at least one set of 15k, my warrior has 5 including vabbian, no obsidian anywhere though.
5 tormented weapons(sword, shield, axe, staff for monk, longbow), pyroclastic axe R9, runic blade R9, darkwing defender r9, R8 eagle defender, 2 R9 aureate aegis' on paragon....bunch of R9 and R8 golds sitting around without anything to do with them.
been playing for 34 months(since release), but only getting this high end stuff in the past year or so.
I don't keep too much money in storage, but I haven't been spending much lately so 300k currently. It seems I can add another 100k without really trying sometimes.

MrSlayer
Just over 2 years.
2 sets of FoW (Monk and Ranger)
8 sets of 15k also on my monk, 2 on my ranger, 3 on my Derv (including Vabbi), 2 on my assassin (including vabbi), 2 on my ele (including vabbi), 2 on my necro, 1 on my rit, 1 on my para + working on FoW, 2 warriors with 3 15k sets between them.
Then there's the 15k's I've deleted (HoM being introduced in the last expension ftl)
2 on my Ranger, 1 on my old Warrior, 1 on my assassin, my old necromancer took one with her when she was deleted, as did my old Monk and my old Elementalist.
That's how many 15k? 31.
Also I have gold weapons (all of them I have farmed, with the exception of the colossal scimitar and the legendary sword. Also, all are caster modded xD)
Platinum Blade
Colossal Scimi
Legendary Sword
Sephis Sword
Stygian Reaver (actually I bought this off a friend)
Runic Blade
Fiery Dragon Sword (WOOOO!)
I think that covers it. I have now got around 20k in storage, and am slowly working on filling it. I've been playing more WoW than GW recently, and spending my short time on GW either just chatting to alliance members or spending what little cash I have. Farming here I come o_O

AshenX
I have 14 sets of 15k armor and 1 set of FOW (ranger)
A req 9 silverwing recurve bow
A req 8 stormbow
At one point a collection of zodiac bows (one each poisonous, silencing, vampiric, zealous, sundering, cold, fire, ebon) got rid of them when I got bored with the skin.
A ton of collector weapons and cheap but max greens/golds on my non primary characters
At christmas I bought 11 bone dragon minipets @80-90k each for the officers and most active players in my guild
last month I spent about 450k on ectos, sweets, alchohol, weapons, etc as gifts to give out to alliance members attending a in game reception celebrating my real life marriage to the guild leader of one of my allied guilds.
I bought my wife a set of chaos gloves and a few assorted in game pretties.
Currently back down to 150k or so. Once the boredom with farming wears off again I'll get back up to 750-1000k and then blow it all in a few days.

Anyway......
When I'm not in PvP land the only PvE I have is a Ranger (the only PvE I've ever taken to level 20, 2 yrs of game time) I farm or wander around missions with guildies, I've never really cared about cash until 2 weeks ago I decided to get FoW on my Ranger, so Iv'e gotten 61 ecto and 54 shards thus far in that time, with about 2 hours a day farming, if that.

Been playing almost since release. In the bank is about 300 gold. My armor and weapons are about as basic as it gets. A collector scythe and Drok's armor.
But, the 'quality' or rarity or whatever it's called of my equipment. It looks good enough and works, so I'm fine. Plus, I have fun, so it's ok.

Some nice and rare shields
Thats about it, I'm well off.

I'm the poor one here...Despite playing consistently for 10 months, I have just one set of elite armor, no special weapon worth mentioning, no mini-pets, and about 200k in storage. I wouldn't even have that much money if I didn't sell a pyro axe a few months back.
I spent most of my money buying lockpicks, capturing elite skills, and just playing the game. Still, I'm only like 20% there toward any grand chest title, and have only about 50% of elite skills.
I've never invested so much time in a game, and yet feel so poor.

Im not terrible at making money, but I'm often bad at spending it.
Had, at one point (a week or two prior to NF release) roughly 700k in the bank. NF and EotN brought me down as low as 15k, now I'm back at around 300k. No powertrading, no excessive farming.
