*"Danny P calculated all the birthday risks—then lost to a cake in checkmate!"*

**Image Prompt:**

A cartoon-style illustration of an overly serious actuary—glasses, visor, pocket calculator, and piles of actuarial charts—intensely focused on a chess match. Opposite him sits a cheeky, smug-looking birthday cake (complete with candle eyes and icing grin) as his opponent. The chessboard is mid-game, but it’s obvious the cake is winning. One of the cake's pawns is a tiny balloon. A party hat lies on the actuary’s head, but it’s askew like he's forgotten it’s a party. In the background, office walls covered in life expectancy graphs and birthday streamers clashing hilariously. Confetti falling in slow motion adds dramatic flair.
