What do you do with most of your gold?
Bob Barker pwnz
I cant do any of that. I give my gold/ecto etc away to friends, and noobs, because, I dont care for it. I love playing ot play, If I have enought obuy the max armor, I buy it. Once i have it, I just giv ethe rest away.
Sirius-NZ
I collect gold as a direct result of playing the game.
I hardly ever use it (save buying salvage/ID kits). There just isn't much that I want.

I just spent mine on cap sigs for titles. Now i'm saving for the off chance the boardwalk is opened for the canthran new year. And anything else i get goes on fow armour/picks/sweets.

I pile it up,and then waste it all on an impuls buy.

i spend it on items i like and titles.. so i choose both :P

I use it to buy Elite armor, Titles, and sometimes pets. I think having gold just for the sake of showing off is pointless, especially now that GW2 is getting closer. pretty much I'm just spoiling my characters.

Wow, I'm actually sort of surprised "Saving for FoW" is by far the least popular option. I was planning to spend my cash on maxing Alice's drunkard title (she is my main title getting char) but then everyone in my guild started just giving me free alcohol all the time, so that became less of a concern.
I've got a Paragon currently Ascending in Tyria for the 50k xp, and if he makes LS3 I will reward him with sexy Paragon FoW armor for his HoM.

Usually when I get enough gold to buy something I spend it and end up either broke or close but end up losing a bit each day.
I try to put a limit on it like half of what I have at the time but doesn't always work as I said above I just keep spending little by little until it is all gone.
Atm I am trying to build it up without spending any of it meaning I am just going to use my PvE character(s) for farming and nothing else until I get more than enough.

I was using gold for titles but I can't stand spending gold on something that really does nothing for me cept the title so I've decided that after playing for so 2+years, I'm getting the FoW Armor. Sad as I don't even know if I'm going to like it.
I have 100k in the vault always for things like tickets at the dragon festival but for the past few days its been nothing but ectos n shards. 15e 5s. long way to go =(

Ive spent most of it on eternal sheilds... a few other nice bits too but mainly eternals.
Ouchie
As a women it's my right to spend as fast as I can make it on stupid and useless things to make me feel special
DarkGanni
I spend my gold on some armors, gifts, armors and weapons/also mods. Being poor isn't a problem for me, not a money packrat.

usualy i leave at least 100k in my storage, so i can powertrade with that money and make more, tho i never have too much in storage, as then i spend it for fancy stuff like chaos gloves, etc.
bpphantom
I just finished near bankrupting myself (20 plat or so left), to buy my first Elite Armor. That immediately got assigned to my HoM.
Jetdoc
I personally save up my gold for the one very expensive purchase that I'm eyeing at the time.
I generate a ton of gold just by my playing style (i.e. doing every mission and quest solo without heroes or henchmen), so it's nice when I've accumulated enough to get that one rare-skinned item that I've been desiring. As a result, my wealth ebbs and flows...which is how it should be in a game like this.

I horde all my gold until I see something that I want/need then I spend some of it. I always keep a certain amount in there in case someone in the guild needs a little. It's nice right now cause there isn't any armor for my necro that I like so, she sits in the 1.5 k Kurkicks....for now.

Fow armor for my favourite characters - war, ele, ranger, paragon
Weapons for my favourite characters - war, paragon, ranger
Stupidly spent on titles for my favourite character - war (sweet tooth r2 -b4 anet decides to make sweets drop from mobs and events)

I save and save and save....and then think, "well, I can finally buy X"....and then find myself unable to part with my monies. >< This is why I'm still technically saving up for my FoW armor....heh....in the end, I'm just gonna farm all my ecto and shards, I just know it. This would make you lol extra-hard if you knew how often I actually get motivated to farm UW and FoW...

Mostly on superior identificaiton kits and expert salvage kits lol
mostly stays in storage, i dont accumilate much. however atm i got about 80k which is a rare site. I might get my monk some new armors but i never spend money on weapons.
Not much need in a weapons on monks tbh, wayward wand is all i need. I have plenty of golds for heroes aswell.
Armors is the way it all goes. I usuallty spend all my armor funds on the 9 rings aswell. There was been times where ive earnt my money back on 9 mrings though

I think the most money I had was 400k :/ I'm not big into farming and only do it when I really want something new, especially new armor.
I'm not a fan of any of the FoW armor skins so spend it on armor I do like. My warrior blew a load on Vabbian, and I spent some money putting towards getting an NPC for our guild hall, and then there's the heroes to rune up. Heroes cost me an arm and a leg cos I'm always making new characters and levelling them up.
Right now I'm back down to just 20k and saving for Elite Luxon armor for a different warrior. That's gonna cost a pretty penny so I guess I should get farming...lol
I really don't know how my money disappears so quickly

Honetly, the most gold I have had at one time has 210k. I usually just spend all the gold I make.. never bothering to save up for anything.

All I gotta say is, thank goodness for Mini-pets.
I'd never have any money if I didn't have mini-pets to sell.

Hmm, I guess my answer really should be split between "leave in storage" and "spend it on titles". I save most of the gold I earn, but I also buy a lot lockpicks. Lockpicks are great for contributing to treasure hunter/wisdom/lucky/unlucky....and it's hard to vanquish without at least a few lockpicks on me. I never like to pass up a HM chest. I might get a tome.
Whenever the boardwalk opens, you'll find me spending a fortune on the rings and getting as many creme brulees and free booze as I can.
Funny though, I've reached tier 1 in both sweet tooth and drunkard without spending a dime on those titles. (Unless you count not selling the alcohol and sweets as "spending")
I also spend a lot of gold on cap signets. I have Tyria and Canthan skill hunter and slowly working on Elona. My title hunter has just now reached the desolation so she still doesn't have access to all the skills yet. I refuse to use Elite tomes. Hey, I could sell them instead for 8-10k and buy 8-10 cap signets with that money!!!

Orange Milk
My money goes to Lock Picks (though I haven't bought any in a while due to massive luck getting them to drop while farmin as of late)
ID kits
Salvage Kits
15k armors for that stupid HoM.
Used to spend it all on Skill Cap Sigs, but thats been done for a while.
I've never had more than about 130k at once.
I'm sure I'd have more moey if I didn't give away sweets, Alcohol and mini pets.
Never really squandered it on a weapon, I use what I find or get collectors. Spent some money on a few mods here and there though.

I ended up getting a habit from diablo 2. I always would go and farm farm farm. I could have more cash or items than i'd ever need but I still just wanted more "incase".
So I power trade alot, just so I can be prepared for whatever I will want in the future.
I have never been past 300k gold before lol.

I picked titles because I've dropped 150k-200k on festival tickets. But my main gold sinks would be skills & cap sigs (I'd estimate something well over 500k spent there), keys/lockpicks (probably 300-500k), and regular/15k armor (no FoW)(probably 500k or so there across 20+ characters).
Jensy
Right now, I'm saving for obsidian for my nec. I would like to complete my HoM, and I really cannot stand most 15k nec armor sets :P I have the 4 I can live with (Vabbian, 15k bonelace, Monument and elite Kurz) and this will complete that part of it. I've been keeping a steady 200k in the xunlai, working up to 94-98k over that and then buying ecto 20 at a time.
Other than that, I'm not sure what I'd spend it on. Probably the other 10 weapons for my HoM (ugh) if I decide to go that route.
Luckily, I'm not a huge fan of minis. I like them, but what else do they do aside from follow you around and serve as an overpriced e-peen? But, different strokes for different folks and all that

I don't let myself get below a certain amount of gold. :P I like having that little cushion in case there's something I NEED to buy later on, or I see an incredible offer I can't pass up. So in that sense it sits in storage and I stare at it lovingly. :P
Generally, though, my money goes to luxuries. I have the money and materials to get at the basic armor and then some, so if I have extra gold and don't need skills, I sink it into cheap minipets, pretty armor, shiny weapons, and title track stuff.

ElinoraNeSangre
No option for me - I save it for months until I decide what would be the perfect set of Elite armor (not FOW). I like to keep a pretty high amount of gold, and then I use it when I decide there's something I HAVE to have.
I almost made it to 600k but then I ran off to blow some on Elite Cabal for Elinora. :: snicker ::

I used to buy stuff with gold. Then I ran out of shit to buy so, I dumped w/e gold I had on me on the ground and rezoned. Now I plan on buying 14 sets of 15k armor with it. After I figure out where in the hell these sets of armors will be stored.
Yea voted for pudding btw.

i'm broke most of the time, but it doesn't bother me.
what's the point of having a bazillion gold if you don't spend it? it's not REAL money after all and i have to remind myself of that sometimes lol. my power isn't going to be turned off if i only have a few plat. so when i have something in mind that i want, i'll save up for a while then buy it. 9 times out of 10 it's armor.

Voted the last answer because I couldn't stop laughing 
But for real, I rarely farm unless I want something really badly, then I farm untill I have almost got all the money I need, sell a lot of crap, buy my item/armor and I'm happy again. Untill my eye falls on another shiny weapon...
Obsidian armor I didn't farm, well maybe the first 50k or so then I started trading. I suppose a good idea would be to keep 100k in storage just in case you want something you can start trading right away, instead having to farm it all over again. But when I see those 100,000 coins, the only thing I think of is: spend! Spend! Spend!
