How to reverse rough behavior

A few years back, we got my cat (who was only about 10 weeks at the time). Before getting him, I had done my research and knew not to rough house and use my hands to play with him because it might cause them to think that it's okay to be rough with people.

My brother, on the other hand, liked to rough house with him. I told him multiple times to stop it, but he obviously didn't listen.

Now my cat is 3 years old and a pretty large little man at 17 pounds and my brother is still seen as a toy. My cat will rub against him and try to sneak in a quick bite (which turns into my brother backing up and lifting his legs while my cat tries to get him), he'll stalk him going from room to room, and try to sneak attack my brother. I know this is not out of aggression but rather because of my brother's actions because my cat can be very sweet with him, such as grooming him and getting upset when my brother leaves without giving him some attention.

Is there any way to reverse my cat's behavior caused by my brother's stupidity?

Update: I probably should've specified he ONLY does this to my brother. When he wants to play with anyone else, he meows for attention and shows us the toy he wants to play with. Other than that, he wants to be snuggled and kissed by my parents and me. My brother will get occasional love but then he wants to rough house immediately after.

Advice for a Financial Analyst career with no experience?

Pretty much what the title says. I graduated last year with a undergrad degree in finance (Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get an internship while in college) and currently work part-time doing AR and I'm not a fan of it.

I'd really like to pursue a career that focuses more on what I studied in college, aka analysis, as I enjoyed learning it and doing work for those classes.

Only problem is that it seems I can't land any analyst jobs!

They all require x amount of years and you have to have experience with this and that programs and you have to be able to balance a spoon on your nose and everything else. I've gotten a few interviews that required absolutely no experience, but I ended up not being the top pick for them. And, of course, I don't have the funds for an MBA or MinFA at my graduating university (and just to rub more dirt in the wound, they require a 3.00 GPA and one of my professors threw a curveball final that knocked everyone's grades down, so I graduated with a 2.99).

Does anyone have any sort of advice on what to do?

Tips for newbies?

I tried studying python in college, but my professor admitted on the first day that he had no idea how to code with python and my tutors were just too smart to dumb it down for me lol. I'd like to learn python not only in a personal setting, but hopefully be able to maybe get some certifications with it to further my current career.

Only problem is I have no idea how python works.

Are there any resources y'all recommend for newbies to learn about it and maybe get a little bit of practice?
