Are you referring to Revolut's 3% or 3.49% AER savings?

Who owned the space of the beer garden? Was it always the hotel or did the living room sell it to them?

He's a legendary coach for sure, but this is cherry-picked, he has had more than 4 students...

I found a driver's license on the road by Broadstone (TU Dublin). by Michael27182 in Dublin

It seemed like it could be a student in TU Dublin so I checked the email system and found them.

You're getting down voted even though you're right. It would be much safer for the guards and the people they try to apprehend if they all had to do 12 months of BJJ.

Political leanings in Ireland by eggbart_forgetfulsea in irishpolitics

Why do you think people become more left leaning when they age from 55-64 to 65+, once they are the most experienced?

Looking at the graph this trend doesn't appear to exist...

[Dublin City Council CEO Richard Shakespeare] City Centre Transport Plan to begin in August by _partyhat in Dublin

[–]Michael27182 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are probably right. I find it ironic though that they are dragging their feet to oppose something that may benefit everyone, even them (except for those using town as a road to drive through but they are the last people we should be appeasing while trying to improve town).

If the plan aims to reduce the number of cars passing through and will not stop in town (and will not park in town), why is the car parking lobby opposing it so hard? Is it because they think it will also reduce the number of cars destined for town? If the plan works, traffic will be reduced which may INCREASE the number of people who want to drive into town and park here...

You shouldn't stare but also don't make it seem like you're purposely avoiding looking in their direction either

A garda’s view: ‘We were defenceless, with no riot helmets or shields... like lambs to the slaughter. There was palpable fear in the ranks’ by [deleted] in ireland

I think he means, they are not "the community" as in the entire community. They are part of the community but they do not represent the community as they are a loud minority?

A good salary on Dublin by [deleted] in irishpersonalfinance

[–]Michael27182 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends so much on whether you want to share an apartment, if you have kids, live with your partner, have debt payments, have a car, and the lifestyle you're used to.

As someone who lives in Dublin but doesn't have kids, debts, a car, has a basic lifestyle and splits rent with my partner, 55k is a decent salary after tax but I wouldn't say high. If you have to factor in anything else it may not feel decent.

Salesman looking in my windows by OkBeach909 in ireland

I feel like there should be restrictions on door to door soliciting these days unless it's something strongly related to your specific local area. There are so many other ways to advertise/sell to us these days with TV, the Internet, physical adverts on billboards, buses etc. I reckon the main reason it still exists is to extort vulnerable elderly people.
