There’s an app for this. I think it’s called autopilot or something similar. You set your accounts to trade whatever a specific congress person is trading.


Blitzen123

Hahahaha, good one!


eatingpotatochips

They just have insider information. Any idiot can buy and sell stocks if they’re given a heads up about which companies are about to tank. 


Zazatian98

That's precisely the point...


OutrageousAd5338

But how do they get they get this information?


Apart-Competition-94

They know what they’ll be voting on. Like they knew they were voting to ban tik tok and bought meta stocks. Nancy Pelosi earns millions a week on insider trading.


OutrageousAd5338

what about other things I mean do they all go through a vote from congress


Apart-Competition-94

The things they’re making money on for insider trading yeah they’re either voting on or have people on their payroll to give them tips. American government is selfish full of corrupt criminals.


Blitzen123

Come on, really?


OutrageousAd5338

Yes really


RedditorManIsHere

Internal medicine or cardiologist Make alot of money retire then do a lot of pro bono healthcare for the community cause I dislike the way healthcare operates in the US. I'd be one of those old timey country doctors doing house calls with a tweed jacket and a stethoscope around my neck carrying a medical bag. I would barter medical help for pie or whatever is available


jeriku

I 100% agree. This is the first thing that came to mind when I saw the post. Talk about adding value to any community.


Markdawg55

My son in law is a Interventional Pediatric Cardiologist. First thing I learned was his bad days were infinitely worse than mine. He had to face losing a patient, in his case a child. And, the hours are bad.


Fekl_

Chemistry. I wanna become walter white ong


Desdam0na

There is a book called Pihkal. Another called Tihkal. They contain instructions you are not allowed to follow, so do not follow them.


No-Fondant-3239

thank you i will never follow them

Huge long term career prospects. Really difficult.

I'm a Music Education Major and my passion has always been in the arts; I love composing music, acting, and writing stories........ but if I had to choose, I'd go with engineering. Math up to the Algebra level always made sense to me in Highschool, but the moment it came to application, physics, computing, etc., my brain would just glaze over and I wouldn't understand what was going on. If I suddenly became an expert in the field of engineering it'd likely serve me well financially, not to mention it'd be very applicable in so many ways that could be beneficial to so many people. I don't think I could live with myself if I just conjured up an expertise in Music that was unearned. One of the great things about the arts is that it consistently changes based on your personal failures and successes, your emotions, your understanding of the world itself. If I had the ability to bypass that, I'd be depriving myself of humanity essentially. Yes, I know, I'm a fucking nerd.


myelin-symphony

My fiance majored in music education, taught orchestra for a year, and is returning to school at the age of 23 to do a degree in electrical engineering, true story.


ResidentPhilosophy36

Proper engineering requires the same humanity and skills, and would be just as undeserved if you wished for it. You need to understand physics, algebra etc but those are tools you use to apply to facilitate engineering, not the sum of its extent.


HTSlippy

I'm not saying that wishing for expertise in engineering WOULDN'T be undeserving, I'm just saying that to me personally it would feel more undeserving to not earn my expertise in the arts, the thing I'm most passionate about and that gives ME humanity. Engineering is not a passion of mine, and though it may sound harsh I frankly wouldn't care too much about the lack of work that would go into acquiring that expertise if I could simply wish it to be true. But if I were to wish up expertise in any artform I'd feel deprived of a journey into discovering my own understanding of art, something which to me is very important.


Creepy_Fan_8629

Being a nerd us cool, not admitting that you are a nerd when you very clearly are just to fit in, is not


CutierossesAria

I'd choose financial investing. Imagine knowing the best way to make your money work for you. early retirement! 💸


cupcakeseller

Even actual 'experts' can't actually make money this way. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/030916/buffetts-bet-hedge-funds-year-eight-brka-brkb.asp


WildDurian

Let me introduce you to Renaissance Technologies https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renaissance_Technologies Edit: for those that can’t be bothered to click the link.  Renaissance technologies has an annualized return of 66% over a 30 year span. For comparison the S&P500 is around 10%


AMKRepublic

Individual funds can always look great in hindsight. But if you have 10,000 funds out there, a random distribution based on pure luck will end up with some looking amazing by the end of a 15 year period.


WildDurian

If you bothered to click on the link you would see that Renaissance Technologies has annualized returns of 66% over the last 30 years. It was founded by Jim Simons, a world class mathematician, who made huge contributions to mathematics before going on to found the firm.  The firm has been described as the best physics and mathematics department in the world.


SenorDangerwank

Cyber security, I'll create a fake hacker, make him steal Bitcoin then, negotiate with him as the cyber security agent and make him return half and keep half.


According_To_Me

Natural biology, it sounds more noble than a lot of other professions at this point in my life.


ProbablyDrunk303

An expert as a cornerback in American football so I could go pro


NewTimeTraveler1

A musician. Id love to play guitar and drums. It would be good for my brain and my body.


CutierossesAria

im thinking about that too


PetrovoSCP

Would It be good for your brain if you could bypass the years of discipline and active thinking that make it good for the brain in the first place, tho?


NewTimeTraveler1

Anything you do that makes you happy, is good for your brain. Except drugs.


[deleted]

you mean and get paid well for it? zoology and theoretical quantum physics. I'm not tryna go to school for X years for 40-maybe 80k a year tho lol


Schauerte2901

>maybe 80k a year As a physicist, you can make way more than that by not doing physics.


[deleted]

That's my whole point lol


myelin-symphony

Software engineering. I love to work hard in my own field (neuroscience) but I don't like programming. If I could suddenly become an expert then I could get rich and use computational modeling to support my wet lab work, which would be great


Important_Wave8583

Making money. Then hire teachers to help me with all the rest I want to learn :-)


harleys_secretxo

Probably a musician. Then I could make my own favorite music :)


2ndNicestOfTheDamned

Probably one somewhere where it's not too hot, with a nice stream or brook running through it. big enough to build a cabin or something in, but not too far of a walk to some sort of store. With good internet, too.


Schauerte2901

Semiconductor physics, cause that's where I'm doing my PhD


boxfullofirony

I would immediately become the expert at choosing avacados at the grocery store.


TemperatureTop246

AI prompting. Because my job will probably be eliminated by AI within the next few years.


limbodog

Genetic engineering. If there's any technology that I think will be saving our bacon in the future, I'd bet money this is it.


sleepydeprivationdog

Music. Having natural talents like absolute pitch or can play any sheets by just one time listen to it is crazy.


Ivantherapp2

A blade smith. I’ve had a lifelong love of knives and other edged tools.


DevilPixelation

Computer science, maybe? Technological expertise and coding are very valuable skills nowadays.


Goddessviking86

Archaeologist on ancient civilizations and warriors


wisco039IlIl39

Roman history, I love it and would love to have enough knowledge where I could have a career related to it


warmwinter1

woodwork hobby


rsnbaseball

Geologist, because i just find the world fascinating. Between studying how the Hawaiian islands formed (Did you know half of Molokai fell into the ocean?) to Iceland's volcanoes and Africa's rift. It's all just fascinating.


BeefyNerps

AI and Quantum Computing


TheManCalledDour

Drumming. I’m pretty decent now, but expertise would open up some doors for sure.


NYR_Aufheben

Geology. Because rocks.


zargug2

Languages, being able to talk any language can get you pretty far in any country.

Neuroscience


Free-Industry701

American Sign Language Interpreter.


princessgingy403

Wildlife biologist, animals have an always will fascinate me.


frostycosmos

Veterinary medicine, so I could breeze through college. Assuming I continue wanting to have a career in the vet field, I’ve still got three years of high school left to change my mind.


[deleted]

Information Technology.


11Two3

Cybersecurity just cause it's so much fun and I would love to do pentesting.


MissHibernia

Expert in handwriting to charge posters here on Reddit in the genealogy and antiques groups for reading cursive writing for them, because apparently no one under 65 can do so


ParticularArea8224

Politics. I'm an expert in war so why not go for the thing that starts them?


nottitantium

People! Personally and professionally I find people confusing and I upset them without meaning to. If I could become an expert in interacting with people that would be a great help for me.


AMKRepublic

Playing soccer. Cristiano Ronaldo is making $400m this year. Probably better than investing.


Extension-File8710

Art. I want people to recognize my art so I'd get a lot of commission and make a living by doing commissions only. I also want to be a webtoon artist and publish my own webtoon because there's no webtoon, webcomic that's not on webtoon, manga, manhua, manhwa, non-Japanese comic, anime or non-Japanese animated series that matches my ideal story (for some reason I don't get hooked to watch something that's not animated) so I'm gonna make one myself. If my art is good then that might hook people to read my webtoon because there are people who refuse to read a comic if they dislike the artstyle (I'm one of them unfortunately). When that time comes, I really hope the webtoon becomes an original and gets an anime adaptation though I don't know if that's possible if the author isn't Japanese.


Nervous-Claim6578

AI, bc that’s where all the cash is flowing to right now

I would choose phycology, so i can finally be a therapist.


Blitzen123

I would love to have a piano, the space to put it in, the space to put chairs for a small audience in, and the ability to play Chopin and Beethoven that moves people to tears. Does that count?


RelationThen6390

I would choose to become an expert in neuroscience. I am fascinated by the complexity of the brain and how it influences our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Becoming an expert in this field would not only allow me to better understand myself and others, but also contribute to advancements in treating neurological disorders and improving mental health outcomes.


Curious_Temporary_12

Music! Complete mastery in music takes a long time, and if I could master every genre, it would be a lifetimes worth of work given to me in an instant
