@mrp9440

Can I start my exams while I’m in university or should I start it after graduation

@thipemothoni4697

This man represented actuaries very well in this interview, very articulate in his information.

@zamabhelentangana

Wow, Boni! I'm so happy to meet someone from Kimberley. My son is in UCT, doing his first year in Bachelor of Business Science in Analytics. He did his high school here in Kimberley Boys High.
He wanted Actuarial Science , but his Maths was 78%, so he couldn't qualify. I'll share this with him.

@vusumzikheswa9348

Enkosi bongi. I just can't do anything without Actuarial Science 😢

@tangi000

Hi Boni and Yusuf.
What could be some challenging things that people with no mathematical based degree that completed all their exams with the Institute and Faculty of Acturies might face? Especially with acquiring jobs and Trainee positions?

@IanMatengu

Would it be possible for someone studying a tangential degree, let’s say data science or math to register with ASSA and write the exams concurrently or would I need to obtain the degree first ?

@mahlatsefelicia9592

👏

@KATLEGO_kat

Very informative video thanks Boni

@his.name.is.sakhile

Can you please share his LinkedIn

@1000SABELO

Software engineers earn more than actuaries though.

@LushakaMudau-gp1qu

Hi, I am currently studying a BSc in Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics. Given that my degree allows me to take certain actuarial exams, I'm curious about the best career path to eventually work in the actuarial science field. After graduating, should I aim to enter a different industry, such as data science or banking, while completing my actuarial board exams through ASSA? I understand that actuarial science positions generally require either a dedicated actuarial science degree or completed exams. My question is whether gaining experience in another industry first would be a viable route before transitioning fully into actuarial roles

Hy sis Bonnie i did hit the button 😅❤

@yolandeisaacs7632

@Yxvng-bxll

Watch the ads guys😂

@lecee

Well done Yusuf!!! Definitely wasn’t an easy journey! Shine bright🎉🎉🎉

This was very informative. Thanks Boni.

@leomaggs

@ntokzin795

So language was used to exclude certain races in the field😢

@ckngivdtb37910

I'm glad he didn't give up on himself.

@ckngivdtb37910

He has a bit of a Kenyan accent. Great interview as always Boni and all the best to Yusuf and his professional journey.

@sibongilemaseko8799

Wow Amazing

@Hemiah_5

Hi sis Boni thank you so much for this video you were the first South African I've come across who makes information about these careers easily available. I am truly grateful thank you so much. This information is truly important to us who come from poor backgrounds and are trying to figure out how to get our families out of situations. I almost did a degree that had no money. You are literally saving lives❤❤❤.

Thank you Boni and Yusuf for this interview it was very eye opening.

@MeThokozani

Wow what an informative interview. Thank you Boni sisters . I know Quants who works in the trading space such as banks and hedge funds(not personally). Saw a documentary years back called The Alchemist of Wall Street 🔥🔥🔥🔥

@kopanomabalane9688
