BudBundy 0 Posted December 4, 2006 Author Share Posted December 4, 2006 yes.As I understand this.You sent nhlfan a pm saying you would send $61 as soon as he sends you some books. He sent the books; but you already got them from JackingOffSuit for free. So you sent him back the books and wanted him to return the $61 he received.He says the deal is final and wants to keep the $61.He also wants you to pay shipping if you want the books back.It's a tough spot; but I see both sides.I want what you are on now.100 grams.

I love my job, but sometimes I get so damn sick of it.Today, I was working on a claim for a client. The provider kept submitting the claim to the wrong insurance company, and threatened to send the client to collections unless the bill was paid. I had to wait on hold with Pacificare for 35 minutes just to find out that they never got the claim. Took all of 30 seconds. ****ing insurance companies sometimes. I realize that a simple +1 would suffice to keep this thread at the top, but whatev.Congrats Actuary. Link to post Share on other sites

Argh, I guess it's just destined to be one of life's mysteries.in a very narrow definintion of a Valuation Actuary, we tell the Accountants what numbers to type.and then explain to them why those numbers are not what they expected them to be when they derived their "plan".there are also Pricing and Product Management Actuaries. And then a bunch that crunch numbers all day and provide information to managers and government. And many that work with Pension funds and consult. Link to post Share on other sites

It could be a lot more exciting than I imagine. There are many disciplines of accounting and I"m sure some more challenging (read: interesting) than others. Link to post Share on other sites

Jelly-Filled Ace 1 Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 Edward G. Robinson was an Actuary in this movie. I too didn't know what an Actuary was/is/does until I saw this old b&w "Double Indemnity". It still plays on Turner Classics Movies from time to time. Edit for research:It airs 10:00 pm Sunday December 17th on TCMalso, the Cincinnati Kid airs 12:15 pm Tuesday December 12th on TCM also. Link to post Share on other sites
