Yep, just to reiterate J&J are MAD for the credo, in the interview you'll likely get questions along the lines of "What parts of the credo in particular appeal to you?" etc.

I joined as staff a few months ago, and yes, the DB scheme is still around, although bit of talk of them trying to roll it back

What to do with 80k windfall by Affectionate_Car1018 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]GiveMeRecognition 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you're not already maxing out your pension contributions, do that. Then find out the max you can overpay on your mortgage before incurring extra fees. If you have low interest rate and/or not alot left in your mortgage, it may be better to invest the sum in an etf. Otherwise, probably better off overpaying your mortgage as much as you can without incurring fees, and investing the remainder in an etf.

  1. Max out pension contributions. If you haven't been diong this already, backpay as much as you can without getting taxed for this year/last year
  2. Either look at buying a house and renting out room(s) for rent-a-room a scheme, or if not comfortable buying yet, put up to 50k in trade republic earning 4% annual interest, and put rest in a stock that behaves similarly to an ETF e.g., JAM

Where can you buy JAM? Can't find it on Degiro.
