What do you call an actuary with a sense of humour?

An outlier.

From the author of Confessions of an Actuarial Tutor comes this collection of more than 670 jokes that only actuaries will find funny (though probably only because they have such low standards for humour).

Containing the very best classic actuarial jokes, such as:

How can you spot an extroverted actuary at a party?

He's the one staring at someone else's shoes.

As well as stacks of new jokes created especially for this book, such as:

Why was the actuarial vampire fired?

Because she was afraid of the stakeholders.

With jokes covering actuaries and their (lack of) personality and social life. Along with jokes on pensions, insurance, finance, mortality, statistics, Excel and even accountants. By the Law of Averages, you're sure to find something that will eventually make you almost laugh.

At first, it appeared that no lasting damage had been done, but as he grew, it became clear that his sense of humour had been damaged irreparably.John lives with his family near Oxford, England, where daily he wonders how his wife still finds the same jokes funny after more than 20 years of marriage.

Reviews for The Ultimate Actuarial Joke Book: 670.5 Jokes Geeky Enough to be Suitable for Actuaries

Actuarial humour is like a dog walking on his hind legs. It is not well done, but you are surprised to find it done at all. Dr Samuel Johnson (adapted) The problem with actuarial jokes is not the jokes themselves, but that if you get them, you don't have any friends to tell them to. You know how awful the average actuarial joke is? Well, by definition, half of them are even worse than that. J.R. Bob Dobbs (adapted)
