Well my friend, you could rest assured that if you be an actuary you would be paid much better than many other professions. Infact I have seen some of my experienced friends earning around $150,000 to $250,000 a year. Even in some cases we see associates earning a better package than many of the MBAs.
Yeah, ofcrs it would differ owing to the operating locations, the expertise, the job and the industry one is associated with, like a fellow professional assoc. with the banking sector might just draw a better compensation package than his competitor at the healthcare industry.

For now I can hardly imagine such salary....
In our country actuaries get average salary 25-30K a year. It's maximum.

Could you please tell us what country are you from?
Actuaries are paid high because of their ability to foresee the financial status of the company in the future. They should be good at computing premiums, pensions, dividends, and everything that needs calculation. The company's success and survival depends on their calculations. So the actuaries must be precise on their calculations.
I am a Computer Science and Mathematics graduate. In final year of college, I wanted to do actuarial work but most companies wanted a worker to have a at least 2 year experience even for those Junior Actuaries and Assistants. Because this kind of job is so delicate.
To explain a little further, I will try to compare an actuary to an accountant. The actuary is calculating the money that the company would have in the future. While the accountant is calculating and balancing the money that have been used in the past
