Ok so I recently got my hands on a new account, serveral level 85's etc but it has no gold. I have 4 maxed professions spread over a few characters and was wondering which on you'd think would weild the most gold over a period of time. The professions I have maxed are Herb, Alchemy, Mining, and Engineering. I also have 500 enchanting and would happily take it to 525 if it was worth it. If you guys have any experience with any of these professions please feel free to share experiences, stories and links if possible. Thanks alot.
Stuck on what to do..

Noone here is going to be able to give you a definitive answer to your question because every server is different. It is up to you to do some research and discover what is most profitable.
- On some servers you can simply gather Cat herbs and mines to riches but on many they have been driven down due to competition - but WoLK herbs and ores are often very profitable on those same servers since they are often overlooked.
- You have a max level Alchemist and Engineer... what spec is your Alchy? What recipes do you have for that and Engineering? Some of them can be profitable, but you have to take the time to look at your AH or TUJ (theunderminejournal.com).
- Enchanting can be VERY profitable if you or the previous owner take the time to get the enchants and then get the mats and create the scrolls... Also disenchanting can be VERY profitable as well.
- Leveling up an Inscriptionist can be profitable on some servers - darkmoon cards, fortune cookies, glyphs (ugh... on most servers these are competed into the ground - BUT keep in mind that if you are 'getting your herbs for free', that you can still profit while those that are buying their herbs would be losing gold)...
Again, the shoe is on your foot. We can only point you in the direction of where to look, but it's up to you to find what is actually profitable on your server.

Engy and enchanting are a prick to level up so you're lucky there. I'd definitely be getting the enchanting up. Top level enchants are always profitable especially early on in new content as people are constantly upgrading gear and need it chanted.
Flasks are usually pretty profitable, especially when you're botting for your herbs.
