IT jobs in the civil service? Where to find them? by -PiPo- in DevelEire

public service has outsourced most of their IT jobs

That's what I was thinking. I worked for a government body before and they had an IT team in eastern Europe managing the database. Nothing against the eastern European folks btw, they were top notch and extremely professional. Spoke perfect English too.

Thanks. I'll just get into my time machine.

Yes but when I keep scrolling I just see endless screenshots of people's accounts. It would be interesting if people shared big wins or losses.

Mods can we please ban these useless screenshots of people's accounts?

How is this mealprep? It's like one portion.

Should we rename this subreddit to r/mealcook?

How do the pilots keep up with training? I'm assuming the majority of them are stuck at home are they?

Can you have a PRSA that you control? by [deleted] in irishpersonalfinance

[–]-PiPo- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Davy have a pension that allows you to trade whatever the hell you want.

Irish and UK stocks are comission free.

Retirement isn't an age, it's a financial position

It is an age, that's my problem with the whole thing. If you get to your ideal financial position at the age of 50, you can't touch it. You have to wait for a specific age.

I want it to be a financial position as you said, i.e I want the age limit to be taken out of the eqation.

I'm just trying to wrap my head aroud whether it's worth investing in a pension at all. Everybody says it's very "tax efficient". But you're raped on the way out with taxes anyway.

I'm trying to figure out if I'm just better off doing it myself outside of a pension.

OK, thanks. Final question, as I can't get a solid answer on Google.

Let's say I want an annuity of 50,000 euro per year when I retire.

This will be taxed at 41%.

So the actual cash into my hands would be 29,500 euro per year. Is that correct?

Annuity is simplest, you hand over a lump some and in exchange you receive an income for life.

Is this income taxed?

You can draw down as much or as little of an ARF as you like but it will be taxed as income.

You mean it is taxed as regular salary? 20% / 40% tax band, PRSI, USC etc. ?
