I recon that, but the main benefit I get from that is not epic flight

it's just that I can simply NOT bother about doing those boring
dailies (all of them, I can't stand the concept) and still get enough
pocket money for gear repairs, enchants, gems, trade skillups and the
occasional AH epic. I simply don't see my gold stash pass the 5k limit
more than once a year (it's been 3 years since TBC launched, and I
have 3 epic fliers, sounds right? :P). In that sense, money is not
easy to collect for everyone.

No, money is still *easy* to collect. It isn't necessarily *fun* for
everyone, but that's not the same thing.

I'm not suggesting everyone should stockpile huge amounts of gold for the
sake of doing it. I think that's a silly thing to do in real life, let
alone in a game. Having said that, if there's something you want that
*does* cost a fair amount of gold, the game has a variety of mechanisms in
place to make it possible for you to do this, and it's not terribly hard.
Just time consuming.
