The Institute of Actuaries has a sense of humour

Those annoying disclaimers at the end of eMails are generally not worth bothering with. Yet every now and then one of them becomes a true work of art.

Whilst listening to one of my old podcasts of Radio 4's New Quiz I was reminded of this (alleged) signature appended to the bottom of some eMails coming out of the Institute of Actuaries. It needs to be read all the way through...

"Any opinions contained within are not necessarily those of nor a wholly owned subsidiary thereof nor authorised or regulated by the Financial Services Authority and are intended as general guidance only and do not constitute advice or a contract in law. Help! I'm being held prisoner by the Institute of Actuaries. They keep me in a windowless office and make me stuff envelopes all day. If I don't stuff enough they beat me. Please help."

If only all Actuaries had such a sense of humour.
