Reyn take a look at this thread I made a few months ago about training skills.
Personally, I would take Magery, Resisting Spells, and Tactics or Archery from the skill stone. Finish training Magery and Resisting spells by casting Magic Arrow on yourself. You can get 1k scrolls for like 5k gp in the vendor mall. Not too expensive. Even as a noob hunting monsters in noobie dungeon you can probably get 5k in about 30 minutes or 1 hour.
Next I would train Anatomy and Evaluating Intelligence since they don't require ANY resources and Meditation only requires 1 NOS FS scroll. Once you train these you're left with Archery or Tactics depending which you took from the stone, Parrying, Swordsmanship, and Healing. To train Parrying and Swordsmanship you need to find a partner and buy maybe 20 hunting knives (about 10 gp each) and 20 shields (wood shields are about 20gp). Set up the macro in my other link and you're good to go.
Healing needs 1 XUO FS scroll and 50 bandages and a place to wash them. That's not very many resources and I'm sure someone will be willing to give you a few XUO FS scrolls for free, and you start with a reg bag that has 50 bandages. That's why I say to not to take healing like Yankovic suggests. It's a personal difference I guess.
Once you get the few items I mentioned all you need is time. As far as I'm concerned if you do it this way it's not very expensive to train your character, it just takes a lot of time.
