lover because it’s legally easier to disentangle yourself from a lover. The
accountant says a spouse because you can get a tax deduction with a spouse. The actuary
says it’s better to have both because you can lie to each of them, telling each of
them that you’re with the other, and then go into the office to do some work. |

An actuary, 2 accountants and a hippie were flying in a
four-seater plane when the actuary calculated that it was highly probable that the plane
would run out of fuel and crash if they did not parachute to safety soon. The accountants
found the parachutes and after several minutes of calculations came back together to
announce that there were only three parachutes but four people. One of the accountants
sarcastically looked at the actuary and said: You actuaries are supposed to be so smart
– why don’t you figure out how 3 can equal 4?" The actuary replied
seriously "The proof would be a waste of time; the most logical way to decide this is
to have the person with the smallest remaining life expectancy stay on the plane".
The actuary did the calculations and decided that the 55-year old smoking hippie was the
one who had to stay. With this decided, the actuary promptly grabbed a parachute and
jumped out. The accountants looked at the hippie with a great deal of guilt since they did
not comprehend the calculations or the logic behind the decision. The hippie looked at
them and said, "Man, that really sucks! I wish I could have gotten my pot out of my
backpack before that actuary jumped out with it!" |
