Taming works well with a mage if you want to get your own mounts and also sell them on the auction house.

In MO you usually will want a charater entirely devoted to one profession if you are crafting.

Some builds can fit in gathering skills such as mining, woodcutting, or gathering pickables. Mining and woodcutitng is just their primary skill + Lore skill, so basically just 200 primaries. Gathering pickables takes no primary. Just be aware that trying to do more than 1 thing on a character can often gimp it in some way.

Taming and fishing are also options. With taming you just need taming primary, then there's Creature Control and Lore.. but you can customize it down until it fits your needs. Likely under 150? primary if your just taming horses 1 at a time. Fishing is just (200) Survival + Fishing primaries, but fishing is not for everyone. Takes some major paitence and experimenting with setups.
