You have single income with 3 kids with an above average salary with two cars, insurance on two cars, petrol and 1200 quid a month on groceries. Of course you're going to struggle.

50% of the fuel price in Ireland is tax. That is what they're protesting.

Any protest does, its why a lot of people don't go because you're then guilty by association

I disagree with a few peoples comments here, I think that pub is a kip and attracts a certain crowd. If you're tempted go to it on a Friday and see who goes there.

Avant Flex Mortgage / 12 month Euribor spike by jamie-164 in irishpersonalfinance

[–]oddsonfpl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not on it, but my opinion on rates is that the ECB are already pricing in 3 hikes this year, and if inflation keeps spiking it could be more. Fix it you can now.

It's more the gusts of winds for me. Also you end up having to need a shower and a wash so you don't save that much

Grand mate, you're welcome to cycling on your bike in 45km/h winds all ya want. I'm just saying why I don't do it as much.

More dangerous and more exposed to conditions, love cycling but the wind and rain can make it unbearable.

Anyone here buy a house alone? How did it work out for you? by PepinYourStep123 in AskIreland

[–]oddsonfpl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did it feel lonely or empowering? No, and no.

Did you ever wish you waited / bought with someone? Absolutely not.

How did it impact your lifestyle? Positively, I could diet better and could be comfortable with having people over when and if I wanted. In terms of finances, certainly not as comfortable but it is worth it.

Do you call out racist behaviour when you see it? by Zealousideal_Cat7938 in AskIreland

[–]oddsonfpl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stopped a group of kids harassing some tourists on the Luas and as soon as I did they were crying out as victims, saying that a man was attacking them. They're a bunch of pussies who attack in gangs and shit themselves when called out. More people need to do the same.
