lawyer vs actuary vs ...

In response to "How much is two plus two?":

a marketing VP will say "22";

an accountant will say "4.00";

a mathematician will say "I can demonstrate it equals 4 with the following proof ... ";

an actuary will ask "What do you want it to equal?";

a lawyer will say "it's 4, but with charges it's 12."
