its really difficult to explain to someone what an actuary is - so much so i rather tell people im a kelvin klein underwear model than try explain what it is we do.

people who say actuaries are more boring than accountants are brainless parrots...do what you think is right for you!

Imagine a person whose influence and decisions can affect thousands of people. A person with the rare ability to do several different things at the same time-problem solver, business analyst, investment/ pension's consultant and financial risk assessor. A person with excellent business skills and intuition to develop a meaningful picture of the future, based on past and present information. A person who can affect the way economies run and governments think.

This is an actuary.
