While NA players, at least those who put less effort into making money, walked penniless hanging off LS bank, when JP players prospered working towards HNM money kills, which would explain their drive to camp kings, etc.
I sure as hell walked around penniless until we started doing splits.
I think its important to note that JP players also had a huge headstart on crafting, and materials were a lot cheaper at the time too. On Bahamut, people like Silverlight were able to get 100 GS first, and then competely monoplize the market.

Did you farm your fire crystals in Hell?
Being a drg, I'm sure that the majority of your days were spent seeking for party while farming, but thats still a lot of time killing fire elementals.
