I either want to sell game gold or start a server company?
The server company will need to have money to make money.
Which one do you think I should start up?
If it's a server company than I need to get a big space along with the game gold company because I'll need multiple computers.
I picked the computer section because you can tell me pros and cons of each.
EDIT: It will be for web hosting.

Are you planning on having the servers inside your house? or...?
servers = good idea.

Have any idea where I could store them cheap? I thought about getting a giant studio apartment and having a roommate (friend) living with me also. We'll just leave the computers on.

Consider colocation....
Your idea is making a data center.

Colocation is when you give a company that owns a data center your server. Then they give you internet, HVAC, security, power backup.... etc etc and all of this is top notch.
You can also come in whenever you want ( for most of them ) 24/7 ( for most of them ).
It cost around 70USD to 300USD per month per server depending where you live or where the server is going to be.

Quick question about the server business tho... Do I really have to do anything but own it?

own it... colocate it... Set up some type of billing system... Since you probably have to use Windows Server OS, you have to pay for licensing.
Are you doing game hosting, web hosting, Virtual Private Server or dedicated server hosting?

Which one do you think will get me the most money?
And Licensing you mean the disc itself or monthly?
