Actually yeah that's a good point. Chocobo porters are much cheaper - and much more of what your average commoner would expect to pay for. Comparable to a private taxi, I guess?
And I'm afraid I don't have sources, but I seem to recall that adventuring pays, like... really really well. So the amount of money we earn as players - and as the Warrior of Light, remember, that's what we're considered to be in gameplay terms - can't really be compared to the average income of a regular person, even if you take into account the whole 3 minutes IRL = 1 hour in-game thing when it comes to per-hour pay.
I guess the other place you could look to, for inspiration if not confirmation, would be other FF games..?
