Helping others to do their best, especially when it’s something they are truly passionate about.
What if the thing they’re passionate about is doing evil murders?
Hear that everybody? This guys an accessory to murder!
Username checks out
If any comment from this section was going to get me the “username checks out” I thought it would be the one I made for “Cheesy McSneezer, and the Cheesy McSneezer 7”
I hadn’t scrolled that far down yet lol
Doesn’t mean he has to help. Just good at it when he chooses it
Some say the world would be poorer without Charles Manson. Not me - some.
Generating world peace.
The world would become a better place, and no one would be able to trace it back to me. I get to live in a warless world and still have my privacy.
I feel like you could game this… my superpower would be making a hit album in a day. I’ll just tell them it took several weeks. Replace album with day trading, writing a comedy set, movie, engineering designs, theoretical physics…
Game this is easy: I will be the best at commiting crimes without getting caught. In your face Moriarty
I was going to say “robbing banks” but I prefer the generality in your answer.
CRANKIN’ MY HOG AROOOO!!!
Theft.
computer programmer
Time to contribute great code to tons of open source projects, completely anonymously of course.

Being a spy. Did I crack the code??
Not really. Spies need a handler. If no one can know then you can’t tell anyone the secrets so you’re a terrible spy.
Schrodingers spy.
Can’t know I’m the best, can still think I’m a half decent spy yknow
Making people laugh. They’ll keep thinking there’s someone funnier but they’ll be wrong.
Embezzling money
Nobody’s claimed stock investing yet, I’ll take that one.
Social engineering. Give everyone a sense of agency but make the world in my image.
Father?

Cracking DRM. Win-win.
Keeping secrets
Being famous, in order to create a paradox.
It doesn’t create a paradox. It just creates the same situation I’ve been thinking about for 30 years.
If I had any musical talant, I would be “Cheesy McSneezer” and my band would be “Cheesy McSneezer and the Cheesy McSneezer 7”. It’s a death metal jazz lounge band. They create all original music, but nobody knows who Cheesy McSneezer is. You hear him on all the albums, but every time you go to the concerts, the band tells you “Sorry guys, I know you came out for a great show, but Cheesy McSneezer couldn’t be here tonight. So instead, please welcome our one night only temporary lead vocals…(Insert any random well known musician here)”
And every show, the reason why Cheesy couldn’t make it changes, and is always completely absurd. And every album cover is like 100,000 people all coming together for a photo shoot. Somewhere in the photo, Cheesy McSneezer is always on the album art…but it’s never aparent which one he is. And the photos are taken from so far away that you really don’t have any up close visuals to cross reference the other photos with.
So every concert, is technically a famous musician doing cover songs for a guy that nobody knows who he is, but also everybody knows who he is.
If you haven’t seen the movie Frank (2014) I’d recommend it
Based on a true story, unbelievably
Making money.
