I am exact opposite. I don't accumulate shit I don't need and I am first one to share. I always let my accounts rot when I quit and I always share things I don't immediately need.

Eternity is a very long time, especially towards the end.

I'm always baffled by people who spend wads of cash on in-game stuff.

Never bought anything, never sold anything myself.

I love the smell of facepalm in the morning

Sold a few thousand dollars worth of characters/plat in EQ.  Each time I quit, I sold off everything and yet I still kept coming back.  I think the count was a lvl 30 druid to Yantis very early in the game.  Sold it to Yantis when he was just getting his operation off the ground.  He played on my server.   Then I sold a 68 monk with an epic and pretty decent gear. The last time I played was mainly to just have fun with twinks and play the Bazaar.  Turned a 10k plat loan into 300K+.  Sold it.  This cash helped me get through my undergrad degree living only on student loans and no job after my Freshman grades torpedoed my scholarships (thank you UO!).

I think I've bought some gold in UO once after it got all hyper inflated.  It was really cheap anyhow.

I did minor sales in other games, but nothing really sticks out in my mind.  I stopped selling once it became more heavily policed and moved to the realm of the gold farmers. Plus, my dinner choices aren't limited to ramen, mac & cheese, or chili anymore.
