Other ideas:

Starlight Courier - interesting idea, but doesn't seem to have caught on
Ferry Service - Someone should start the Atnos-Drassa run, but I guess
	boats are too scarce right now.
Bodyguards - Anyone doing this for money?
Selling spell casts - I wouldn't mind a Haste or two at certain times.
Slav trading - massive recruit/impress work, then sell to people.  Worked until
	Gorbachev met Rocko's blade.

I think if you're creative, you'll find lots of opportunities.
