English term or phrase: I am golden
I am adding subtitles to a video, and I am having a hard time finding the right way to translate "I am golden" in Spanish. I understand what he wants to say, and since it is a strong statement I dont want to lose the power of it by just saying "por ahora, yo soy el mejor" or something that simple. Do you know a better way to say it without sounding weird or a stretch?

One of my colleagues heard about the product, can you tell me? No, I can't, 'cause then he would have what I have, and at the moment, I am golden.

i am golden
Soy el mejor


Explanation:
... de momento, soy el mejor.

... por ahora, soy el dueño del cotarro.

Sin más contexto, esto es bastante difícil.

"Soy el mejor" parece apropiado, y es breve, para subtítulos, pero puede ser algo como "Estoy en control"?

No hay quien me tosa.
Soy insuperable.

Maybe definition 5 here?

Doy un nivel de confianza bajo, porque no estoy nada seguro, sin más contexto. Si puedes proporcionar más, y tu comprensión en inglés, tal vez podamos encontrar algo que comunique la idea con la misma intensidad.

De momento, soy el mero mero (para México)

De momento, soy el rey del mambo...

De momento, sigo siendo el rey...

Saludos cordiales.
