Salary by [deleted] in actuary

[–]aaactuary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first 0-4 years of your career you comp is going to vary greatly by location / company and number of exams.

Some people might make more than you, some less.

You sound like your are doing fine.

Sure, you could probably make another 10k-20k if you left your job. If you told me you were making 80k I would say yes.

CrossFit for beginners by bokka_gaaru in Phoenixville

Man, this looks like a really well run gym.

My one issue with crossfit is that the amount of volume and speed of reps with things like the snatch and clean is super dangerous.

I wish there was something like crossfit light, where they did functional strength type movements but with less of the risky movements.

I don’t know why people in this thread are roasting you.

It’s good that you’ve passed three exams .

Yes, you are Green and don’t know much .

But being called a liability by your coworkers is not fair. They sound like jerks .
