ActuaryTm Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Not a bad chair at all. Purchased an identical one for a family member in Brooklyn during the summer of last year (I think I caught it on a slightly better sale, as it was almost free after rebate). Only thing I dislike is that the seat and the back are joined together by the arms themselves (four bolts total). In other words, the arms are not optional, as without them the seat and the back would not be joined. Am actually looking for a new chair myself, but I think I am going to opt for something more along these lines (or perhaps these lines), though obviously a bit more inexpensive.

T3C Posted April 13, 2005 Author Share Posted April 13, 2005 $727!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 $727!!!If you spend a lot of time sitting on the chair all day, it's worth it. I paid a little bit less than that for one of these in December: http://www.steelcase.com/na/products.aspx?f=11852 Well worth it. Of course if you have a used office furniture store nearby, that might be your best bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ActuaryTm Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 If you spend a lot of time sitting on the chair all day, it's worth it.Precisely. Especially in a home office. Not to mention, it's a business expense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention, it's a business expense.Yep :) I bought mine just before the end of the year for tax purposes. And I had a 35% discount code, which made it even hotter.

ActuaryTm Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Do you have a home office (work from home) too?Until Nyc office space becomes more affordable, yes. Although, I do have access to a rather nice conference room on demand in a law office in midtown. A family member of mine was nice enough to offer use of such when I require it, as it is part of a remote office of a Long Island based practice.

Meaning you'll be working from home forever - LOL Although, I do have access to a rather nice conference room on demand in a law office in midtown. A family member of mine was nice enough to offer use of such when I require it, as it is part of a remote office of a Long Island based practice. Now that's nice... do you use it a lot? What do actuaries do anyways? I'm not quite sure what it is you do - I know it has to do with numbers, but that's the extent of my knowledge.

i-bystander Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Today's lesson is brought to you by the letter H. (for Hans)Hmmm... did Ben Stiller's character in Along Came Polly work as an actuary? Seems like it... can you (or anyone) confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ActuaryTm Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Hmmm... did Ben Stiller's character in Along Came Polly work as an actuary?I believe the title used with Risk Assessment Analyst? Someone with a better memory chime in if I am wrong? No. There are risk analysts that typically work alongside the actuary (or actuaries), but are more slated towards the product development/deployment/in-force analysis/etc side of the equation, rather than the truly intense mathematical side.

i-bystander Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 I see. You're on the truly intense mathematical side then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
