Few things to note:
-Permanent mounts must be constantly "fed" through SC items. Due to this, id rather just buy a 30d mount. The point? If you cannot afford a 30d mount, dont think that a "permanent mount" is a good alternative. It's not.
-Stat/Skill reset scrolls are better than Iron Case if you have made mistakes in point allocation.
-Do not even think about trying to risk it playing Remi's or James' lotto of shitbaggery.
-If worse comes to worse, dont underestimate the power of roars. If you really need to buy/sell something, or find a group, roars can be very effective. A roar will likely reach more people at one time than a forum post here or on the official forums will reach in a month.

I agree that if you cannot afford pretty large quantities of sc on a regular basis, then you should only buy stuff that is permanent. Once the stuff with a duration ends, you miss it.
I disagree though with the 30day mount being better than a perm mount. If you are smart and are only on your mount for less than 1 minute at a time, you will never need to feed it. It doesn't sound like a long time, but I can get most places on my mount in under a minute or with having to only get off and on once during the trip. Buying a 30day horse is great if you can afford it every month, but if you can't, a permanent is better as long as you don't waste your fuel.
I also think that stat/skill resets and iron cases shouldn't be compared. They are all very useful and all much smarter to buy than something like a costume. While yes, if you have messed up your stats, if you haven't reached level 30 yet and received your 10 free stat reset points, then you should probably wait until then (unless you've messed up more than just 10 ^^; ). Even with stats that aren't fantastic, you can still make it to level 30 pretty easily. You will, however notice that you run out of inventory space very quickly well before that level though, especially with the introduction of the mystery vault.
