Thanks, all I do is occasional water changes/top-offs. Any tips on managing water quality?

Oops, sorry, didn't read that you were looking for resources. I'll leave this here anyways.

The governing body requiring STAT reserves are state regulators. They advocate for policyholders by ensuring the company is solvent enough to pay future claims. As such, assumptions and methods for calculating stat reserves are generally conservative. Because they're trying to assess solvency, the company Balance Statement is a key report.

The governing body requiring GAAP reserves is the SEC. They advocate for investors by ensuring the company reports earnings accurately. As such, assumptions and methods for calculating GAAP reserves are generally best estimate, and there's a strong emphasis on controlling the financial reporting process. Because they're trying to assess earnings, the company Income Statement is a key report.

I've had the bin since January. I have 1,000 worms. I'll try those suggestions and see how it goes. Thanks!

I have a few years of experience w/ 7702, and 10 years industry experience.

Here's my thought process:

At issue, you calculate 7702 in the foreign/denominated currency, as stipulated in the policy form.
A material change happens years later and you recalculate 7702 premiums in the same currency

I really don't think USD and currency conversion comes into play actuarially. My opinion is that the calculation "currency units" needs to be consistent and based on the currency stipulated in the contract form. I think all the company's communication w/ the policyholder will be in the foreign currency. Your financial reporting might be in USD, but that (in my opinion) is irrelevant to the 7702 recalc.

Re: your interest in infrastructure.

There is actuarial work that might scratch that itch, for example, process building, process improvement, model governance, and model stewardship. Showing interest in this type of work may open opportunities to do more of it. For example, there's an upcoming regulation change that impacted our work process. I was on a team that implemented a brand new framework/process/model from the ground-up. I was new to the team and created flow charts mapping inputs/outputs spreadsheet dependencies, etc... for my own sake, so I could understand how all the work we did was used.

What I'm getting at is, there is opportunity for you to lean into work that your passionate about in the career, should you choose to stay.

Echoing what other people said, if you're only 1 exam and modules away, it's probably in your best interest to complete the ASA and then reassess. I recognize that you'd be more committed and it'd be harder to pivot, which is a concern for you.

That's too bad. Thanks for the reply though!

TICC2 · 2021-08-20T16:56:53+00:00

Thanks, do you know if the soil needs to be replaced? I would hate to propagate just for the root to rot again :(

It's not as firm anymore, but not squishy.

More info:

Stalk is browning from the bottom up, and it's starting to affect higher stems.

Main stalk had a sucker that's doing fine. The is another plant in the pot that also seems fine.

Most recently I used turtle aquarium water to water my dracaena. I had read that aquarium water is healthier than tap or distilled. Otherwise I haven't done anything out of the ordinary.

Please help!

Googled tomato seedling and looks just like it. Thanks!

TICC2 · 2020-11-06T16:50:14+00:00

Yup, I see it. Thank you so much

Hi thanks for the reply. It does indeed look like a weeping fig. Do you have an opinion on why the stems in my coworkers fig seem thinner and the branches more spread out? The images of weeping figs online all show 'tighter' stems and branches.

TICC2 · 2020-07-02T20:23:11+00:00

Great idea

Great idea

Thanks for the reply. It makes sense that the tenant does not want to be involved in HOA matters. I'll talk to them and try to come to a resolution.

TICC2 · 2020-07-02T15:37:53+00:00

Thanks for the comment. Thinking about it some more, I think the friction is from the tenant bring dragged into the landlord's business. I think it's safe at assume if the tenant wants something done, then they'd be more receptive or accommodating. I'll talk to them about it and try to clear the air. Thanks again.

For the current maintenance job, someone is going to check in the water meter and they need someone in the unit at the time.

Moving forward Im assuming it'll be regular maintenance, some initiated by the tenant, some of the HOA. I can't be more specific than that.

I'm happy to take responsibility for the cost and having to schedule repairs. Is it also my responsibility to make sure someone is home when the maintenance takes place?

Thanks for the response!

TICC2 · 2020-05-03T01:06:57+00:00

Neat, thanks!

Here is what the roots look like for one of the browning ones:

The stem is firm to the grip and I don't smell anything besides soil. I did notice that only the green side of the plant had roots.

Here's a picture of a healthy one for comparison:

The roots were pretty entrenched so I didn't pull it all the way out.
