There is an epic story by someone who went against the odds and got their epic flyer in a week with a little bit of help from a special someone in their life.

It is a long and tedious grind to hunt for 5,200 gold. Why so much? An epic flying mount for Outland costs exactly that. It's an excellent game mechanic if you take a look at it from a financial perspective. Moving around the game faster allows you to complete objectives faster which in turn helps you get through the content at an accelerated pace. Getting through content slowly is what keeps you playing.

So why not take the time you'd save, add some to it, and create a grind of epic proportions to obtain something that has relatively no utility apart from within Outland where you generally have nowhere to go except daily questing.

There are many players that spend some time farming that much gold up. It'd take 26 days at 200g a day to reach that goal and if you add in repairs, arrows, food/water, reagents, and other costs like enchants/gems/consumables, that'll easily double the time needed.

Most constantly splurge too, so it just adds on and on. That 26 days includes doing every daily for the Shattered Sun Offensive, taking anywhere between 2 to 3 hours a day. Most players don't have that much time to just farm wow gold. Instead they spend an hour doing just the isle, which in turn would take you 52 days since you only earn about 100 gold for the Isle of Quel'danas quests only.
 

For our part, this was too much time. There was no way that the epic flying mount was worth this much time. Many other players agree and a few of them turn to the gold farmers to help them obtain their mount. Gold farmers charge about $100 USD for 5,000 gold. This option is invalid. You can get banned and you're helping the secondary market exploit the game even more. Why do that and take the fun out of the game?
So we came to conclusion that you can earn about 200g a day from daily quests. However, if you had 2 characters doing it, you'd earn 400 gold a day. With 3 characters doing it, you'd easily have 600 gold. Most of us only have one level 70 and doing daily quests on three characters would easily take over 9 hours out of your day depending on the classes and your luck.

What if you could do daily quests with two characters at once? Most quests are shared except for mana cells, mana remnants, darkspine chest keys and the razorthorn roots. Even these go faster with two people. But how do you even get another person or another account willing to hand you over their booty?
If you have two accounts, how do you maximize your income? That is, farming for additional remnants and the dark-spine keys takes additional time. Who would play it for you if the account owner no longer plays? How would you manage it? You'd run two copies of WoW. Using separate computers that are within arm's reach of you. You'd switch characters depending on who needed to loot. A set of macros would easily allow you to control both.

So you could begin and march around with two characters doing daily quests. If your friends offered your hand, things would go smoothly.
