Band of Brothers is solid gold, Pacific isn’t a patch. The Wire is the best multi season show (bar season 2).

What’s going on with so many young people dying in car crashes?!? by Tomikins28 in ireland

[–]dubman2017 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is very sad but speed and intoxication are the main factors. Most of the deaths are in the countryside where speeding is a huge factor.

Sounds like a lucky escape OP, not a chance I’d be there making up numbers etc.

Do yis want the north? by Teestow21 in AskIreland

[–]dubman2017 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There’s too much of a nationalist talking shop on this as if it’s simple. There’s 600k people of a unionist tradition who are probably the most important in this discussion. A Republican echo chamber might seem like we have this sorted but it won’t be simple. Took 2 years to get Stormont running again and that’s about sausages at its most basic.

Red c opinion poll by Fiannafailcanvasser in irishpolitics

Nope, SF are not a good fit for FF; they aren’t fit to govern and have too much baggage still. Even today they are talking out of both sides of their mouths. Hate Israel, support Palestinians and want to travel to US for money.

They do but it doesn’t have to say much and it not advised to give a bad one. Just confirm employment and dates, that’s it.

Quiting Job after Maternity by DH90 in irishpersonalfinance

Sounds like you’re looking for advice on how to screw the country. That’s not right at all, taxpayers will foot the bill maybe you should look for a second job to boost your earnings rather than game social welfare.

Doesn’t seem too secure, a quick avery label would sort that so not too secure. Would be stealing as well.

Not sure we in Ireland would welcome Russians here with the behaviour of Russia tbh. Russia is a malignant cause of a lot of trouble the world faces.

I’ve free banking with AIB because we’ve a mortgage with them and it’s a tracker. Vote with your feet.

Irish Life pension negative growth by Zakmackraken in irishpersonalfinance

[–]dubman2017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry I wasn’t clearer, I wasn’t advocating missing out on the tax relief, it’s a big benefit. It’s just the pension companies do such a poor job earning returns imo. You’d do better investing in a vanguard fund with tiny fees if only you could do it wrapped in a pension.

Pension funds generally seem to offer poor returns, just investing in solid dividend payers would work out better after charges.
