Quote:What do you do to earn gill?
Clearly, you earn gill from fishing!
Sorry, couldn't resist... A few people have asked about earning gil through non-endgame crafting. It's very possible. You spend more time earning the gil, but if you're only going for a few million, I think you spend far less time than if you'd take the time to be able to master craft multi-star endgame items.
Pick a crafting class. Look at the market board to see what HQ items sell for a high markup. Find something with a high demand and a high profit, that you can HQ reliably. There are some surprisingly easy to make things that will net you quite a bit of profit, especially on the consumable side of things. As an example, I'm a culinarian on Balmung. I can easily make 150-250k an hour crafting HQ recipes in the level 35-45 range. It's not anywhere close to what you can make if you can craft multi-star recipes, but it also doesn't require nearly the same time commitment.
