Unlike most I actually have fond memories circa 2000 of playing a melee class from stark naked and rocking cloth and a cracked staff until I had scraped up enough to start buying banded 1piece at a time. It was also thanks to this that I managed to keep bind wound maxed. The game was designed to be approached in this manner.
I dont see the value in playing a class you dont want to plqy solely so you can finance the class you want to be later.
As an aside, the community here is generous. If people see non twinked lowbies running around, its not uncommon to get unexpected aid along the way. My first HQ bear pelt I was selling at market value to a high level tailor was followed on with a few lower end melee items after he inspected me and saw I wasnt just another low level twink.
Play what you want first and foremost. Money and gear come naturally with levels.
