We have thousands of them, have had for hundreds of years, and when you are old enough or sensible enough to think about or worry about a pension you will soon know all about actuaries. They make important decisions that affect everyone who has a pension. Taking into account, life expectancy, future interest rates and macro economic trends etc. In effect they decide how much your pension will be, or not as is the case at the moment.
PS. Jerrek, an excellent career choice, you will never be out of work as an Actuary.
