This, to me, is terrible advice. Being a successful contractor isn't about "having no competition", that's good for news headlines about old guys earning top dollar for maintaining cobol mainframes but not much else.

Pick tools that are used a million times per day (java, sql, whatever) by a million companies who will always need extra professionals that can add value quickly when onboarded to a new team.

More to the point, start researching the job markets wherever you plan to work. Stop guessing, do research. Good luck.
