Do first aid anyway. It might take some money to buy cloth since you are also a tailor, but its great for situations when you are out of mana or need to conserve mana somehow. Fishin can make you money at higher levels but it takes a long time to skill up. If you're horde, make sure you go to hinterlands around level 50 to get the fishing pole quest. If you're alliance you can either try to win the fishing contest in STV or do a quest from Shattrath that gives you another good fishing pole. The good thing about fishing is you don't need to be in a specific zone to gain skillups. You can still gain skillups fishing in the starting zones. The difference is you won't catch good fish that can be sold for money. The way skillups work in fishin is that the number of fish caught to increase your skill becomes greater as you increase in skill. Cooking doesn't directly contribute to your income, but rather saves you money from buying food. Again, food can be used to save on mana, requiring you to need less water to regain mana, instead of healing yourself then drinking. Food can also give buffs, and the Outland food buffs are better than the old world buff. Most old world buffs give stamina of some sort. Outland food buffs can give all sorts of other buffs, like strength and spell damage. Any buff is always a bonus, and leveling cooking is easy as most of the mats for cooking come from the mobs you kill. In the end it won't hurt you much to not level these skills, but having them can give you some advantages. If you have the time, level fishing for the money. If you do level first aid, level it to 360, at which point you can learn heavy netherweave bandage. Its not important to get first aid to 375, as there is nothing new to learn after 360. This way you can make the best bandages in the game without investing the cloth to get to the max skill. Cooking is the easiest to level since you'll always be gathering mats for it, and any mats that don't drop can usually be bought from a vendor in a town cheap. Even if you don't want the food for healing, make the food for buffs.
