    Hi guys, I'm currently on the road, but I'll be with you shortly, respond, etc.
    Answer about retirement annuity:
    "There are times when you could increase it significantly to a max of 27% of CTC, so I just did for the period. But it’s usually 18% on a monthly basis. So it’d be around 48k, But people usually take the minimum - 13%, that’s why this might seem odd cause I’m paying double."

If yes, then Math majors often struggle to find employment because their skills are highly technical and may not directly align with the needs of many industries. Additionally, employers may not fully understand the value of a math degree and may prefer candidates with more practical or specialized backgrounds. I have a Math degree as well, and I'm now a Software Developer, which is totally different from what I have studied. If I could, I would advise Math majors to do something different, or not end at BSc Maths, they need to do their post grad in a specialized field.

    If you are doing STEM stay in school to study furthur. Other qualifications are not economically driven by demand and scarcity. Actuarial science its advanced mathematics and statistics + investment sciences. They design the insurance products using risk analysis forcasting etc. So surely they will get a piece of the billions the insurance industry is making.

    Great content. I would like to give some potential insights for the last payslip. 1 - Statutory Actuary is a very senior position in a life insurance company with specific regulated responsibilities (actually and mostly an executive position). By law, every company requires one and can't be the CEO or CFO. 2- The Retirement Annuity payment looks to me like some sort of back pay, either a buyout bonus where it was agreed that it'll be paid monthly or something like that. The reason is that a) it is under earnings and not deductions, and b) In SA, contributions to RAs are capped at R350k pa (88kx12 will be much above that). Hope this helps.

    Most people are not qualified and they take home 25-35k a month, 80%+ fall in this category. The payslips showed here are the top 10% in the career. It's a double edged sword, you complete exams you become rich, you don't complete, then you end up poor and you generally will not be considered for high paying positions.

      Level 7s in Math, Physics (if it is one of your subjects), English FAL, and if it is English HL, at least level 6. If you took the commerce stream in high school, your Economics, Accounting, etc. need to be at level 7. Generally, universities require AT LEAST 42 APS points. This could mean that you would need to get at least 5 level 7s, and it would be great if you get them on the important subjects I have outlined for standing a chance. Never get anything below level 6 on the remaining ones. It is very much doable with hard work and dedication.
