Get 60th, get epic land mounts, then go back to the old world and level the gathering skills.
Problem is that I wont have the cash at 60. I have about 1000g spread across the characters at 58 and I need what, 700g x 5 = 3500g to get all 5?

hmm.
If your main priority is getting you're team leveld up asap I'd forget about all professions with the exception of perhap skinning as you will come across ALOT of skins that can be sold for some decent cash. Bank ALL greens and save all cloth on alts, yes this will take a ton of bank space and you'll need a few alts. Once your team hits 70 then you should have enough items to DE and cloth to easily level one of your toons to max out talioring and enchanting. Or if you are planning on making several taliors you will still have a damn good amount to start you off and save you a ton of gold in the end. BoE's just auction off. Low level shards don't even sell for what you could vendor low level blues for.

As for gathering professions, as you have noticed they slow you down wayyy to much. WIth a mount you can do it all at 70 in a fraction of the time. The only reason I suggest leveling skinning along the way is because you have to kill the mobs anyways before you can skin them which you will be practiaclly one shotting most beasts with a 5box anyways, as well as how quickly skinning level up. You easily max out your skinning b4 you are even killing mobs for the next skinning bracket. Herbing and mining you have to constantly be looking for and running out of your way to get to while skinnable mobs run straight up to you

my 2c
this is a good idea i agree. I actually am lvling up my enchanting as I go, thus allowing me to save space since I can continue to DE anything I come across and the stacked mats take up much less space than their raw counterparts. Also, a sort of undocumented annoyance is that skinning skillups slow down considerably after lvl 300. Its actually very slow but its not a huge issue since by then you are getting kodohide skin and scraps which sell quickly but just be prepared to skin lots and lots of outlands beasts to cap skinning (like 3-6 kills per level)

*edit* if you ever plan to level LW on any character then save everything you skin and put it in the bank/alt, especially the low level stuff or you will pay out the eyeballs for it later on.
