Money saving tip: The best way to save money is to create a second income stream; One way to do this, if you are lucky enough to have your own home you can rent out a room and earn rents of up to €14,000 tax free! If you are on the higher rate tax band, you would need to earn approx €28,000 to bring home €14,000 net; Other options would be to look at the sharing economy.. think upwork.com for freelancing work (turn your hobby into a side income stream), think housemydog.com, think Skipti (rent out your stuff to people!).
First job: I worked for a promotions company while studying for my commerce degree. I was the large inflatable Tayto man outside Croke Park on more than one occassion!
Favorite hobbies: Running, Cycling, Walking my dogs

Money saving tip: Big savings are available to all if you shop around each year for home, health and car insurance policies, not to mention all your utility suppliers, gas, electricity, mobile phone, land line, broadband and TV. The savings help justify the spend on that extravagant item you’ve wanted, at least that’s my excuse.
