I've never really had much gold, holding on to bare minimums enough to survive on weekly raiding while providing my own food, pots, flasks, and repairs since vanilla. Since WoD I have gone from 100k to 23million (spread around characters and alt guilds) in gold just off of Garrison's and the follower treasure missions, even after they nurfed it this last big patch. I still average making ~5K every few days. As of right now I have suspended my subscription, I was paying every 6 months. I was just charged last month and I have since added enough tokens to play for free until Feb 2017, 10 tokens.
I log in enough to reset follower missions and my 2 raid days. But that's about it.
We will see what the next xpac brings since Blizzcon is next week. I hope it launches sooner like FEB 2016 rather than a 2016 summer launch.
Yeah... you pretty much outlined why so many dislike the Garrison. "Lame" is about the best I can describe your money making setup. I get why you do it, but that type of stuff just shouldn't be in the game. It stripes all sense of accomplishment from the game, which it use to have in spades but with each expansion pack they've removed more and more.
