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.

Editorial Reviews

Review

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)

John was born at a very young age with his umbilical cord wrapped around his neck. 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 studied mathematics at Oxford University where he also trained as a teacher. Despite this, he still refers to himself in the third person. Whilst there, he performed stand-up comedy as part of the Oxford Revue. Making audiences laugh was too easy, so he progressed to greater challenges: making maths interesting and making boring actuaries laugh.

When he’s not wrestling with his work-life balance or literally wrestling with his four children, he’s wrestling with writing funny words on a page in his cramped study.

John lives with his family near Oxford, England where he wonders how his wife still finds the same jokes funny after more than 20 years of marriage.

Top reviews from the United States

  • Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2022
    Since the book is an actuarial text, it seems appropriate to do a probabilistic review.

    The probability you will laugh, given you are an actuary, is greater than 95%.
    The probability you will laugh, given you KNOW an actuary, is greater than 90%.
    The probability you will laugh, given you have a pulse, is greater than 50%.

    Additionally, I am grateful that John Lee wrote the ULTIMATE Actuarial Joke book, which is likely a lot easier to understand than the SELECT & ULTIMATE joke book.

    My mom even laughed.

    Please consider buying this book to support humorous actuaries, they are an endangered species.
