Actuary (a math intensive job)

http://www.bls.gov/ooh/math/actuaries.htm#tab-1

I was talking with some friends of mine a few weeks ago.  We stated talking about a certain guy who had aspergers.  One guy asked "Don't people with aspergers have trouble getting a job".  I responded this guy is not going to have trouble because he is becoming an actuary and his skills in math, not his social skills will be more of what is looked at when he is applying for a job.

A little note even though the Occupational handbook says that there is communication and interpersonal relation skills needed for the job not every work place is the same, and it is possible to get some place that requires less of the things that make less developed social skills a problem.
