Favourite and least favourite skills to build?

Favorite-Painting, cooking, archeology.
Painting because they can make a lot of money from it, cooking so they can create a wide variety of dishes for the household, and archeology because I'm into that sort of thing in rl.

Least favorite-Charisma, mischief, violin. Charisma because it takes too long & just seems pointless, mischief because I hate pranks, I think they're cruel & abusive, and violin because those dang things are just squawky, and once the master it, they won't stop playing it.
