I don't know why people waste time farming for gold honestly. I used to do that, but I make 10x the amount now through a combination of DE'ing (use Enchantrix to find good deals), Auctioneer (use it to find good deals and resell), and BottomScanner (use it to scan new auctions and tell you about good deals which you can snap up before anyone else does and relist).
On my first toon, I struggled to get a mount at 40 and farmed for a while to get an epic mount. On my current one, I have about 800 gold at level 44. Enchanting/Herbalism has my professions.
