[QUOTE="Stringbean2142, post: 4869106, member: 84434"] I added it once after splitting the parcels by five (because at first I had made the mistake of adding it each level), but if you added it every level that would be four extra levels at level 5, which matches the differences perfectly. Not that it matters that much in the long run; even if you add 100 gp each level through 30 levels, you're still only 3,000 gp up. Honestly, at level 30 if I'm still worrying about 3,000 gp when my total wealth is in the millions, there's something off... As a bonus, that may be the most times I've used the word "level" in a single paragraph. :D At any rate, looking at the spread, by level 10 you'd be ahead of the DMG method of wealth calculation by 6,031.2 gp. I don't have my books or my spreadsheet at hand, but that's an extra magical item of a not-inconsequential level at that point. Maybe level 7 or 8? You'd have to check the books for the exact level. So if you adopt this method of character generation from retired/dead characters at all levels, the new characters will have a leg up on the straight-through adventurers for sure once things reach late heroic tier.
