Do you keep running into the gold cap? Are you sick of making alts just to store piles of gold? Do the GMs whisper you for advice? We've all been in this situation where we buy out the entire auction house and yet just can't seem to get rid of gold fast enough. Even cross-faction auction houses aren't much help when you're inexplicably good at being fabulously wealthy.
Thankfully, I discovered a sure-fire way to not just waste gold, but get less of it in the first place! It's very simple; just follow these steps:
1) Have an item that can be disenchanted.
2) Look at what it disenchants into: both materials and quantity.
3) Compare the item vendor price and the auction value of the enchanting materials.
4) If the materials are worth less than the vendor, disenchant it!
Now you'll have stacks and stacks of materials and you can waste tons of time posting them on the auction house, keeping you from spending time getting gold.
Not to give away all my secrets at once, but here's a pretty reliable trick to waste gold: disenchant Pandaria greens. You'll get spirit dust that sells for less than 20s each, but it uses armor that costs 10g or more. If you're really unlucky and get 7 dust, you're still destroying at least 85% of the value of the item. Even better, the market is flooded with the stuff, so good luck ever selling it.
Feel free to use this for any gold-wasting guides you want, just a bit of credit where it's due, please.

I totally get what you mean. The clusterfuck that is crafting materials in this expansion was a huge disappointment for me. I've always enjoyed crafting for profit, but the time gates are so front and centre in this expansion that crafting has become that thing you do every few weeks when you've saved up enough days of logging in and pressing a button that you can now craft a single item that is still not worth that much because the game also gave everybody else the same "free" daily materials just to keep them playing, so they all have to craft it too.
