Should I Get My Masters In Accounting Or Study To Be An Actuary?
I have always had a passion for mathematics, which is what attracted me to Accounting. However, I recently learned about the Actuary profession and I am really interested. It has been a few years since I have studied calculus, so I am a little rusty.

A friend of mine is an actuary, and I think she put the difference as, “accounting is more stable, but you have to deal with people more. Actuaries are more insulated, but they’re seen as only a cost center, so their jobs are sometimes cut.”
