That's where you get an "edge" - Aristotle Onassis once said that the single key to success is "knowing one thing that no one else does"
From there it is about having the guts to pull the trigger and minimize your downside.
Outside of my job/profession I've had a lot of situations where I've purchased something like art/jewelry based on my research and "eye" for something and been rewarded significantly. The "edge" I had was the specific knowledge that allowed me to act rationally. |

I have enormous ADD that over the years of being untreated (never took pills) has been sublimated into sort of compulsive learning about certain niches. Anything that catches my interest first (necessary condition) that is also profitable (sufficient condition) or intellectually enriching and useful (sufficient condition) is something that I will probably obsessively learn about over the course of a year, drill deep into it and "mine out" the knowledge.
