I spent 80K on armor. All the rest of the stuff I either had dedicated already or had in my inventory available to dedicate. 23 ->50 in about 2 days

Let's see....I farmed all my hero armor, haven't bought any pets yet, spent maybe 30k on a couple destroyer weapons, and spent maybe 150k on armor so far.

Still need 30 white minis, all but 3 of the destroyer weapons, vabbi armor, and FoW armor lol.

I started with exactly 500k & 50e when the calc was released. About half the gold went into mini's & I had to farm to get obby. Beyond that, not really sure.

I started at 12 points, am up to 25, spent around ~750k on zkeys and armor. Really just need a few more keys, a couple weapons and another set of armor and I'll be set, only aiming for 30. So around 58k per point thus far.

I started at 37/50, but thankfully most of what I needed I had lying around around storage, so I got myself up to the mid 40's in short order.

Spent about 300k on zkeys, 30k on the few remaining destro weapons. Only need 17 minis for the remaining 2 points. I'm probably looking at 1mil there.

None, aside from the small investment in Monument Armor. I've never been wild about Elite armors, and having to spend money on them is a bit annoying. I only have 16 points so far, but I don't anticipate blowing a lot of money. I'd like to get by as cheaply as possible.
I've been saving up my mats -- have 4 stacks of granite for Destroyer Weapons; I'm slowly farming medals for Oppressor's. I'd been farming for Nick gifts since he showed up, and have all the items I need for sweet/drunk/party -- now I just have to spend them. I've been getting my own hero armor -- it's not hard. Been doing the occasional JQ/FA, so I have plenty of amber/jade for when I make my armor. With Zaishen Elite, I have almost 200 ZKeys to add that statue. I farmed last year's Canthan New Year quests and have a celestial tiger (3, actually). I just need to do Sorrow's Furnace for my moa chick. I intend to wait for the price of minis to settle a bit before I buy any of those.

My hoarding tendencies have certainly paid off.

I'm still trying to decide whether I will buy or farm gems and ecto. Depends on how the market goes, I guess, as well as my luck in farming. I'm sitting on more ToT stacks than I know what to do with, should I get itchy and decide to buy (had three ectos drop while capping skeletons, though, which made me hopeful).

But it's not like GW2 is coming out any time soon. I have time to fill my HoM wisely (frugally).

I got my brothers account from 0/50 to 30/50 with about 1800k but thats with about the minimum work possible, i bought all the weaps i needed, minipets, armor, and titles, (zaishen). So basically it was getting to 30/50 with the least amount of work possible. My main had 46/50 and i had to buy a few weapons but nothing really major, all i have left to do is get Gwamm basically which i only need Guardian and stuff for so no more money there.

Uhh...maybe 6k? Crafted a Destroyer weapon, and needed a diamond and some iron to do so, and they hadn't yet skyrocketed in price.

I'm sitting at 25 right now, and I'll likely hit 30 without having to spend anything unless I get really unlucky with my next batch of birthday minis. Just need a couple more minis which I should get next month when I have like...five character birthdays, farm two hero armors, finish a title, and finish WiK for a weapon. 30 points and beyond that I don't care

had been working my way to my first set of FoW armor even before the calculator... so approx 1200k (ecto were 7.5-8.5k but i was able to buy all of them for 15e=100k and shards had risen from 3.~k to a little above 4k so i bought those for a k lower when i could) had unded minis from opened presents lying around on all my characters which added up to about 24 minis (mostly whites and purple, have yet to ded my expensive golds and greens) as well as having stored some Cloths of the B-hood (put it on 5 of my heroes).... all in all i lost the 1200k i had been saving for obby armor but i gained around 380k-after i spent the 1200k on obby armor-the day the calc came out just from selling minis i had stored as well as any extra Cloths i had farmed.

Currently, I spent about 7k for DoA runs for hero armor and gemstones. 20k to complete an Asura armor set. And I'm slowly working on getting Kurzick armor, so far spent 45k. Total around 80k. I usually hunt my own stuff because I'm cheap.

I started from 15/50 and now 25/50. 5 more points and all I need to do is just get gwamm.

EVERYTHING!!!!

Heh, I scraped almost everything down to get that useless zaishen statue (1000 points for 5000+ gold per key... 200 keys...). Sold all rubies and sapphires (had a vabbian armor from earlier), mats, etc. for it.

Also, gave guildies a few gifts that would have been very valuable (several got an oppressor weapon, one got hero armor upgrades, etc.)

IE - LOTS of money, because it was ALL my money

Made ~300k by selling ~40 ecto, spent half of it on Vabbian + hero armors + ... I spent some on party/sweet/drunk points but that won't go anyway, I just did it to fund a friend who wants to work on his HoM. I am at 29, I will get to 30 once I feel like it. :P

This :-).

I had plenty of mini's i never sold/dedicated, the hero armours i just farmed for free and i was suprised to have done already a lot of pve things without knowing it would be usefull for HoM. And i had a few weapons i could dedicate.

Probably ~4ØØK + 3Øe...
Still have a ways to go though... Unfortunately I'm damned near broke and getting Zaishen is going to be absolutely ****ing ridiculous. Not to mention 27 more minipets... :-\

And then there's still all the cash I need for GWAMM... :-\

I've decided to just waste time on a LDoA for no apparent reason... Sadly it's turning out to be more fun than everything else in the game though. :-\

I spent 0k on my HoM, was done before the HoM calc was introduced. Didnt buy my set of oppressor weapon either, finished WiK on my 10 character. This is on my main account and has 50/50.

My second account, I spent about 100k on my HoM. It is at 29/50 so far.

Interesting question. Last month when the HoM calculator went up, I had about 1,600k gold in my Xunlai and on my various chars. I already had 26/50, and got to 35/50 with minimal expenditure of money; the biggest expenditure was on two Destroyer weapons, I already had Vabbian armor, and I had enough undedicated white minis on hand to get a good start on filling that section. Haven't had to buy any Oppressor weapons - in fact, I've been selling several. And with all that, I've actually increased my cash reserves to 2,200k+. The biggest remaining expense I anticipate is getting 65 obsidian shards for finishing my mesmer's FoW armor, but I won't have any problem affording that; I have sufficient ectos and Elonian leather can be crafted.
