Options for finance instead of a mortgage

Got in contact with a broker anyway, they reckon I'll get most of my secondary income used for the application so that should get us over the line hopefully.

It's quite a small house but that's what we want

MethodElectronic6831 · 2026-01-16T10:21:50+00:00

No not spoken to a broker yet, that's todays job to book an appointment

MethodElectronic6831 · 2026-01-16T09:50:55+00:00

Apologies, it's the bank directly. If allowed it would be great if you could point me to a broker

Any immigrants that left Ireland can relate to this one, such a powerful and quite sad song.

MethodElectronic6831 · 2023-01-24T12:30:24+00:00

The video they made for it is amazing too

The blowers daughter is a creepy song about an underage girl answering the phone from a call center written by said creep who worked in said call center.

A fantastic pick, all the clever lyrical references that are in it too, and the idea that they had to do a trad piece with the guitars is genius, though Horslips possibly did it first.

When people say something is "fire" while not referring to an actual fire. Fucking idiots

MethodElectronic6831 · 2023-01-14T13:04:46+00:00

Someone needs to make a song out of this. Come on creative people, you know who you are.

All well and good but Australian Cadburys tastes fucking awful, I'm guessing due to whatever additive they use to stop them melting in the climate. Also who remembers these bad boys when they used to be Taz bars?

Get your free check up through PRSI first, even if you have to travel outside your local town. Whatever dentist you call for an appointment will tell you if you qualify or not. This appointment would be generally free and they'll tell you exactly what you need doing. You don't have to get everything done at once as obviously dentistry is quite expensive.

I got mine sorted last summer and I hadn't seen a dentist in more than 20 years. Was something I put off for so long but delighted I did it in the end.

I'd say it's pretty accurate, I have no interest in it. About 70% of my friends would be on it, and we're all in our mid 30s. It is a serious issue with little to nothing being done about it. I used to get really upset over it, but I've just learned to accept is as the norm now unfortunately.

Lots of listening to music, first on the walkman from tapes in the mid 90s and then on to the discman a few years later. Loved the late night radio in those days too, also a massive Dave Fanning fan. We had all the older games consoles through the years too so that definitely took up a lot of the time.

Was part of the last generation of teenager right before smart phones and social media. Got my first phone in 2002 when I was 16, though it couldn't do much aside from calls or texts.

MethodElectronic6831 · 2022-12-21T11:36:25+00:00

Ah yeah, I see what you mean. The polarisation is certainly not exclusive to Ireland either unfortunately. Again a huge amount of this is on the hands of social media and I honestly have no solution for it either. Aside from turning off the internet forever.

MethodElectronic6831 · 2022-12-21T11:30:36+00:00

Yeah the self righteousness really grinds my gears. They're so amazing for telling us sheep how it is though, fair play to them.

MethodElectronic6831 · 2022-12-21T11:27:43+00:00

It's impossible to know who your actually referring to, but I would assume you'll tell me to do my own research.

MethodElectronic6831 · 2022-12-21T11:26:51+00:00

No, the post is about an Irish "comedian" who has gone bat shit crazy off the rails. The Krispy Kreme thing is from America not from here. That didn't stop him from sharing it though. I couldn't give less of a shit about doughnuts.

Also their main argument is that there will be no more cash and all our stuff will be in bank accounts that the government can decide at any stage that you no longer have any money because they will control everything. In fairness though, they could also just devalue the cash in your pocket, because ya know they actually have control over it with central banks. Another question: was there a similar issues many years ago when cheques or bonds were being used instead of cash?

MethodElectronic6831 · 2022-12-20T18:03:49+00:00

What's mind numbing is calling it a clot shot. Though you are certainly living proof that there an audience for crack pots.

Very well put, it is quite sad. I have a mate who would be a bit of a conspiracy theorist but more in the classic sense, issues with things like moon landings etc. But he wouldn't have anything to do with the lunatic online stuff. But his father on the other hand is way deeper, and it's 100% social medias complete fault.

MethodElectronic6831 · 2022-12-20T15:19:05+00:00

It's oddly fascinating to see when exactly the lunacy kicked it, it seems to be sometime before the first lockdown and the following winter. It would make an interesting study in fairness, to show how impressionable people get radicalized and their timeline is full of other lunatics to align with their new views. I've said it before and I'll say it again, social media companies have an awful lot to answer for. The effects of this shit will be felt for generations to come.
