    Since Chris likely won't answer for a while, I'll pass along what I know: Chris is taking his next actuarial exam.

    Ha! Neither do I!

    Thanks for the support guys. I'm feeling pretty good about this one, which is nice because it's my third attempt at the exam, though the first one doesn't really count as it was in the middle of school and I put in 15 of the recommended 300 hours of study, nearly all of which coming in the 24 hrs before the exam.

    The people at MetLife who figure out what their total claims costs for the year will be, or the people who come up with the damage assessments after hurricanes, are actuaries.

    You have to be both better at probability than the best statisticians and better and finance than the best financial experts.
