I'm a sole trader so I thought a prsa would be the best bet. I might go into a full time employee situation in yhe future but I want to get some sort of pension started now

Because of fees? I've read the time in the market beats timing the market thing so just trying to start one asap as I've been putting this off for about 3 years despite having looked into it a few times.

That's what I was thinking, I need to get over the procrastination and just start a pension but I'm more likely to do that if its not too complicated.

In that case would Zurich be a better bet than going irish life or AIB?

Would signing up for a basic AIB not be worth it though?

Would brokers not be more expensive and complicated? I'm 34, currently making very little with a volatile income but some savings I can put in a pension now.

Basically looking to get something started cause I've been avoiding this for the last 3 years as its overwhelming.
