Your figures for running a guild are low.

I'm just using averages here..


Clerics
Assume 5 clerics go thru 8 stacks of dots each a week (guarantee that most clerics use the "guild" dots to buff groups too)
40 stacks of dots (round out to 200pp per stack) a week x 52 weeks = 416,000pp

Enchanters use dots too
Assume 3 enchanters go thru 4 stacks each a week. 12 stacks x 52 weeks = 124,800

Sky raids
Assuming 4 raids in sky a week x 4 groups generally (though there are always stragglers that need ported up)
235pp a stone * 4 groups, 4x week, 52 weeks = 195,520pp

Hate
Usually attended more heavily than sky, so 7 ports per raid (stragglers, late comers, getting an alt up to loot a rot item, etc. )
100pp stone * 7 groups, 3x week, 52 weeks = 109,200

Total for a year assuming costs are spread out to only the number of characters listed above 845,520

Now knowing that the costs listed above are not incurred by just 1 wizard doing all the ports, or 5 clerics doing all the buffing, etc you can easily extrapolate that costs associated in dots and stones alone is well over 1 million a year, and that's not counting other incidentals.
