With all due respect, I think the researchers at Careercast.com must be, as the Brits say, “having us on.”
That's the only conclusion I can come to after looking at their much-touted “Best Jobs for 2010” list, just up on their Web site.
Not so much that they rank the job of insurance actuary as No. 1. After all, the rankings are based on a combination of “environment, income, outlook, stress and physical demands.” The fact that actuaries make good money, wear nice suits and sit at a desk would obviously rank the profession higher on the list than, say, anything seen on the “Dirty Jobs” show.
