Hi,
Buying skills or XP or anything else that's capped doesn't solve the problem. It just makes gold worthwhile a little bit longer. Eventually, all your skills get to be 20, your character is 99 and the gold still rolls in.
To make gold worth anything and to have a real economy requires that there be a constant demand on the gold, not just a demand while some skills or levels are still to be had. Besides, the way the game is "balanced" right now, you level faster than is necessary to keep making progress. Buying XP would just make that situation worse.
