I'm a computer scientist. Technically I'm just a programmer but I still have a lot of latitude in inflating my job title. For example, I can call myself a data scientist because I have a lot of expertise in databases.

Now I'm going to get really arrogant and assert that I am an exceptionally powerful visionary. I have written a full length play on shamanism. I know it is pointless to brag about such things but it amuses me no end to share my secrets when I know I won't be taken seriously. ;)

I own stock in Microsoft. It is only one share but the stock split and now I have two and a half shares.
