If you do ALL the quests you can from 70-77 you'll have right at 1k if you started at 0, assuming you DE all the quest items and drops and vendor all the the trash. If a quest reward does you no good, always (usually) take the plate item, or the 2H weapon as it typically vendors for more than any other of the quest rewards.

I leveled my druid (solo) to 80 and when i hit 77 I had 970ish more than I started with. But I didn't vendor ANY greens or blues. I DE'd EVERYTHING except for 4 items that where upgrades. So YMMV if you don't DE everything.
This...is not right at all. My DK had 0 gold at level 70 when I bought him his flying mount - he just hit 71 and he already has 800 gold lol. At 77 I expect to have 3k+ gold easily, probably closer to 4k. This is without using a gathering profession or anything, just quest gold, quest reward sales, and selling drops while questing.
