All I can say about first aid is even though I thought it was useless 
for me as a healing class, I heard some people talking about it so I 
leveled it up, and man is it useful! Yes, you lose some money, but it 
can be worth it depending on how you play. But if you are getting along 
fine without it, don't bother. I actually haven't leveled it up yet with 
my druid, and I sell mageweave for 3.5g a stack.

Cooking I find useless. Even the buffs don't seem worth the effort, at 
least not for solo playing where you can just control the situation on 
your own anyway.

Fishing is a huge chore. I do it every now and then, but you don't need 
to really focus on it. I've never caught anything worth much yet, but my 
fishing has never gone over 250 yet on any character.

Furthermore, these things can take away time from simply leveling up, so 
consider that too. :)
