Is it so hard to get epic flyer?

I noticed whenever money are mentioned on wowhead, it's almost always followed by something like "(i want my epic flyer)" or "(still saving for fast fly mount)"...I don't get this, it costs 5k g, is that so much? I only have my first character, but when i hit 80, i just moved to uncompleted northrend quests and from those i made well over 1k g every day - in 5 days i could have bought epic flymount...i had little trouble saving that amont of money and i dont see why peple have such a hard time with it. I'm not trying to say ppl are lame, just wanna understand.

Yesterday I had 250g, I needed another 750g for dual spec. Got it in 4 hours in Storm Peaks!
Some people are lazy, if the money doesn't just appear in their bag, they find it easier to complain about how hard they have it.

I have epic flying for my warlock, not for my DK.
TBQH, a day farming gold is a day not farming honour. That is enough to prevent me from going for it at present.

On topic: well because some people are Spendaholics.
Others are sick of questing...Finaly quest your way up to 80 and what do you know? More quests -.-
Or n°3: They get their gear ready first. Enchs,gems,stuff... all costs a fortune.
And maybe they just save up for way to overpriced stuff like a 750g bear or a 16K Motorcycle or 1K Dual spec... Not even talking about that big hairy thing yet.
I myself dont have it yet. And I think I doubt I ever will. I almost never use my flying mount anymore. And im leveling alts most of the time anyway so. You know......
EDIT: I dont whine about not having one either xD

i only have one toon at 80 and have only been playing a few months, and i am finding it extremely hard to get to that 5k mark. hit 80, then realized hey i can have preoffesions. omg farming mats would have took forever for blacksmithing...... spent about 2k on maxing out blacksmithing so i could make my own starter 80 gear, so i didnt have to spend more then 2k on the likes of titansteel destroyer and the spiked titansteel stuff... now sitting at 1.5k and questing my ass off but, but am still new to this game and even questing in storm peaks, only get about 13 gold a quest and need 3.5k to get epic. gonna be awhile still. and i dont complain that often about not having epic.

It's not hard at all, the question more is it fun for them? They aren't going to farm/quest up the gold for it if that doesnt sound fun and the mount doesnt seem reward enough to do it.
For me I adore my mounts and have epic flight on my 3 70+toons, first 2 were got in bc the third just after wrath hit..it isnt hard at all, find a way to make money that doesnt make you want to tear your eyes out and do it every day til you have your mount + enough that you wont be broke after the purchase. As it is I feel paranoid if i'm under 1k gold on any of my higher lvl toons.

if you don't have epic flyer but want it badly... the problem is not your money, but that you severly overrate an epic flyer!
trust me, when you really want it that badly, you'll come to realize that the reasons (problems?) why you wanted the epic flyer still remain...

depends on how much you play. People who play <20 hours a week find it hard to get gold
People who play ~60 hours (me :<) a week don't

Well, it can take a while to get the money but its not as hard as you would think it would be, i was able to make enough gold for my epic training and winterflying and get my epic flight form and within a few days, i got another 2k gold.
Icecrown and Stormpeaks are good zones for gold since they are mostly filled with dailies and the dailies change to an extent, that you don't always do the same dailies and thats a good thing.
