The players wealth is determined by them. They can seek to go after hoards of treasure and if they manage to succeed, be very rich. OR they can do other things and get very little plunder. I let the players set the tone on what they want depending on how they play their characters.

I play by the rules, but I condensce a 'level' into a session or two, so my encuonters are harder (thuogh less frequent) and my treasure is huge and all at once, rather than over 14 adventures.

Wealth isn't that important in my current campaign, so we are on a "go with the flow" level -- as long as provisions are taken care of, no one really worries about it.
Then again, most magic items, instead of being found in lucky, neat clumps near monsters, are donated by various temples, etc., as "reward for a job well done". We also use weapon & armour "levelling" in this campaign -- a weapon can be "upgraded", rather than the total-replace notion of most campaigns.
Works well for us and our campaign; may not be everyone else's cuppa...

Clay, you really should rename the thread titles of the polls to let people know this isn't just an accidental double post. I think that's why some people are looking at one but not the other.
As for the wealth by level, I loosely follow it. I look at what I've handed out and compare to see that they are in the ballpark, but I don't follow it religiously, nor do I follow the random treasure tables - it doesn't "feel" right for my games. Bu then, I've played for years, and I have a more independant nature on this stuff.
