Things to learn to make money and live peacefully

Question

I am interested to learn or do MOOC's. First thing is I don't believe in paid courses/MOOC's/Books. Generally I use to audit courses in platforms like Coursera/Edx/NPTEL/MIT OCW. Second and my main dilemma is what to learn so that my career will be sustainable for the long run (make money peacefully). Also I don't think MBA in reputed colleges make sense, I feel its a myth. On some deep research, Data management stuff's was reasonable to me. However in current era everyone speaks about AI/GenAI (Which I don't like), sustainability, META, Blockchain, Everything cloud, Now 5G (later other G's)...etc. Technologies will be keep changing and continuous learning process through out the life is an opportunity not everyone gets. So my understanding was to get foundational learning at a free of cost and career experience should be the learning process.Share your thoughts on your realization which foundational learning at a free of cost can help to get career that gives balanced life .....So that people will not rush towards hypes.....

Learn how to do taxes for other people. VITA offers a free 5 day course every year. https://www.taxpayeradvocate.irs.gov/get-help/filing-returns...
You'll start out with simple returns at your skill level during tax season. After a few years you will be pretty good at individual income taxes.
Needless to say, this is a valuable skill that will help you for the rest of your life.

I have spent a ton of time refining use of sockets and test automation these past years in personal projects. These are winning me employment in areas that are far less opinionated.

Being a notary or any other public service or semi-public (depending on the country) seems like a safe and easy job once you are in.
