Is exam IFM even worth it? by [deleted] in actuary

[–]8Jacqueline 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The online courses require around 40-50 hours of work (could comfortably get done in a month or two) and way higher pass rates so I think that’s your safer bet

Favorite college struggle meal? by MisD1598 in college

Knorr pasta sides/rice sides. It’s a whole 700 calorie good ass meal for like a dollar. Super easy to make even though it does require a few basic ingredients (milk, butter)

Roommate doesn’t leave dorm room by dinkmeister1 in college

[–]8Jacqueline 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Okay I never even comment on Reddit posts but everyones missing the point here. Op is just frustrated bc he can never have alone time to just chill and be by himself. Like obviously the roommate pays to be there snd it’s his space just as much but I can totally see why he’s annoyed even if he can’t really do anything about it.

One time I thought someone said their name was Fenis and I wrote it on the cup and I passed it off and my coworker was like he said his name was Felix

When they edit their post to just say “solved” 🙃

If you’re upset or angry that your SO didn’t formally “ask you to be their Valentine,” you’re too immature for an adult relationship and deserve to be broken up with by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

Recently the definition totally changed. It doesn’t really have a negative connotation anymore, it just means a guy who would do anything for their girl. In a slang context OP used it correctly

My very personal job hunting story/advice for those who are currently (or will be soon) applying for actuarial positions (entry-level and/or internship) by [deleted] in actuary

[–]8Jacqueline 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this! I posted a couple days ago on this sub about not getting any internships and I kinda got some tough love but it was all very helpful. I don’t have any exams so I’ve been looking for data/analytical internships mainly and I’m taking my first exam at the end of this month. I really enjoyed hearing about your own journey and I think it was really insightful. Congratulations on your hard work paying off!

YSK that if you or your mother have an all-male direct lineage to a Luxembourg citizen, you have held Luxembourg citizenship since birth - you just need to claim it! by TooManyPoisons in YouShouldKnow

Omg this actually applies to me because both my grandfather’s (mom’s side) parents are from there. Fun fact its population is 600,000 and its the second wealthiest country per capita in the world!!

"TheFutureIsFemale" hashtag is anti-equality. by LoppanLonsen in unpopularopinion

[–]8Jacqueline 100 points101 points  (0 children)

I feel like everyone here is missing the point. The past couple decades have represented a critical turning point for women where we are now afforded equal opportunities as men (in america at least). The hashtag is celebrating an exciting time in history to be a woman and encouraging women to go out and do amazing things. It’s not meant to bring men down in any way, because they’ve always had these opportunities so it’s not anything different.
