Asking that is like asking 'What is so good about becoming a doctor' or any other profession.
If you have no interest in Actuarial Studies then don't bother - simple as that. Seeing as you asked 'What is so good about Actuarial' then you have no interest in it. If you want to learn more there's heaps of threads about it.
Personally, I think it is quite a good lifestyle (when you start working) and decent money too. A lot of other professionals have to work very long hours. Actuarials can bludge a bit I think.

nah, when ure actually working as an actuary its not bludgey at all
ppl here work from like 9 till 8 and still have work to do at home. depends on how high up you are i guess...if ure the big boss..i guess you could be lazy and get away with it =P
anyway yeah...if u like playing with numbers, simulations blah blah then you might enjoy acst
does anyone remember the onlnie text game utopia?...if you were a hardcore utopia freak (like me ^^) then u'll probably enjoy acst hahaha

Depends on what you do. Your actuaries do a lot of calcs by hand and crap. Investment bankers need to work v long hours too. Consultants don't need to. We are busy at the moment as well because we are trying to get out the version before the end of the year. I feel slack for leaving early (5:30) each day.....feng said:

Back on topic....
I enjoy my work - the people are fun.
Actuarials are professionals. They can do a lot in commerce - not strictly Actuarial. You can do Investment Banking, Consulting, Marketing, Software....
I enjoy it and I am doing well at it.Logix said:
