Quibbling, perhaps, but "entrepreneur" is not a profession. Professions have codes of conduct, organizations that certify members as part of that profession, etc, etc. "Entrepreneur" appears to be on the opposite side of that spectrum.



You're definitely quibbling.


It probably goes with being a recently credentialed actuary. It can feel like a job with the government at times, probably because a lot of the work is related to regulatory requirements.

Not to say there aren't entrepreneurial professionals, or entrepreneurial actuaries.


Another example of a profession, in some states: interior designer. I think most of us are scared of the idea of our profession becoming a Profession.
