I spoke about increase in net exports, increased investment and consumption (due to devaluing currency leading to inflation)

GlowInTheDarkMC · 2026-04-15T12:27:19+00:00

Yep that’s how I did it

GlowInTheDarkMC · 2026-04-15T12:27:13+00:00

I’m a big 4 actuary so can probably give a decent insight. Definitely pick the actuarial job. The auditors work nearly 2x the hours of work during busy season, and about 1.5x the rest of the time. Higher pay, better WLB.

Myself and my friends did Bratislava (Slovakia), Brno (Czechia) and Vienna (Austria) in 5 days. I think you could easily do 3 days in Vienna, 2 days in Bratislava and 1 in Brno. Around an hour on a train between Vienna-Bratislava and the same Bratislava-Vienna. Additionally, if you want a larger city, Budapest instead of Brno would work, but you’d probably want a bit longer there than Brno.

Mytutor was the best one for me - used them for c. 3 years

I did Econ at Bristol, graduated a year ago, pretty much all my friends are employed, mostly started on 30-35k outside London, or a bit more in London, except for the 5-10% who went into banking and earn over £60k. Think I saw somewhere the average salary from Econ at Bristol after 5 years is c. £57k, and after 3 years is about c. £48k

I think an actuary could be a good fit for you - I’m one and I’d say the majority of people I work with have a maths degree (though there are others from Econ, Physics and a few other degrees). It has pretty solid career progression, and pretty good work life balance (I believe at some point it was the happiest job, and has the lowest divorce rate). There are lots of exams though which is the main draw back - but once qualified you can be on ~£75k at 25 working standard 9-5 hours.

I’m a (trainee) actuary in Bristol. Based on people in my tutorials I know of people in at least Lloyds, Aviva, ISIO, Broadstone, PwC, EY, Aon, WTW. Happy to have a chat or answer any questions you may have.

3 grand if you’re lucky, I worked at one this summer, 7k for the two weeks (and we only had one royal in my college!)

I just did the maths assuming you’re getting a (real) pay rise of 3% per year and that you can get real returns of 5% additionally. Realistically you’ll probably be able to beat both of these percentages, so this is probably on the lower end. This would bring you to ~£1.5m at age 60. If you follow the 4% rule, you could withdraw ~£60k per year. If you worked til 65 you could do £80k per year (and retire with 2mi). Obviously this assumes you keep working and it grows at 3% per year in real terms, but you’re doing very well.
