I'd look for a strong Mercury, which rules trade and money. (Not Venus, despite some of what you might read in a modern astrology book.) Maybe the question is what type of economist: for example, the 9th house would concern overseas or international topics.
The 8th house deals with investments and "shared resources" of various sorts. This includes the stock market, bonds, and various instruments that involve more than an individual's personal money.
The 5th house deals with amusements. If you play the slot machines in Las Vegas, that's a 5th house matter.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
This isn't what economists do.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
At some point you have to be a connoisseur of what you read in astrology. <br /><br />

The second house is your personal resources. The 8th house is "shared resources," be they proceeds from a marriage (2nd house from the 7th,) from an inheritance (the 8th as the traditional house of death,) or investments of various sorts.
The 5th house deals with amusements. If you play the slot machines in Las Vegas, that's a 5th house matter.

If you don't design your own life plan, chances are you'll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.

I hope we're clear on the difference between economics and money management or finance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economics
I just looked up economics in Rex E. Bills, The Rulership Book, and he said that economics is ruled by Saturn! Who knew? Maybe that's why it is called "the dismal science."
I think I'm pretty clear on the difference between economics and money management or finance, having done graduate studies in economics and taught intro economics at university. Economics is the theory and finance is the practice. There is no either/or in the matter. They are inextricably linked. And risk is a vital component of production optimization theory and consumption theory in economics.
I hope we are clearer now on the relationship between economics and finance?
Perfectly, IleneK. I don't want to get into a debate over this, BUT the job of many economists is precisely to avoid risk for their employer. Nobody wants to hear that the Fed is into risk-taking. (We had enough of that with Greenspan.)
