Considering the time required to recycle throwaway toons
Yeah, don't do that. Just run your current characters through the tutorial. It might take a whole hour to run 10 characters through and collect 1 XP pot and 45 +25% boosts. My mules live in the crafting hall already, since it has fast access to the bank, the mailbox, and the auctioneer.

Even if I were to use real money, it takes about $10 worth of TP which would be about 10-15 minutes of work for me.
Tell us all, how much money do you make per hour when you're not at work and are instead playing a video game?

So please, tell us again who the dumbasses are...
I think it's fairly clear that the dumb-asses are the people who would rather be a Turbine whale or who claim that their leisure time should be valued at the same rate as they make per hour while on the job.
It's a simple choice:
Spend a single hour in game, get the tools needed to take your CC skill to the level you'll need to make L34 items for yourself.
-or-
Spend money to buy that same ability.
(And yes, you
can spend TP earned for free by playing the game. Anyone except Mookie understands that this is still an opportunity cost which prevents you from using those TP for other purposes)
One hour seems cheap to me, I "waste" more time in this game helping other people than that every week. I have fun doing so, which is why I put "waste" in quotes.

how long would it take to get 60k essences?
It depends. If you're at cap and melt everything it won't take very long at all. You'll get ~20-30 essences per item. If you're at L1 you want get anything like that for melting your crap pulls.
