Why would you have 78k in your current account just sitting there?

Yeah I know. Unfortunately markets only entered my mind less than a year ago and I have decided they are too risky to enter at the minute.

You could buy your own home for circa €210,000 and live in it with lower mortgage repayments than your current rent.

Gotta ask one question OP just how in the **** did you cheat on the bar.

I am 28 and I have 78k in my current account.

I rent and have a salary of 45k for the last 12 months and my account has increased by 21k in the last 12 months.

How am I doing? Is it common to have this much saved when on this salary?

EDIT: Should be 21k not 24k.

i would say NO not common to have €78,000 savings be on €45000 and pay rent and save €21000 in last year, must be to do with your life style.

ah give the OP a break

78k over 10 years works out at just €650 a month. Not exactly that hard to achieve when you are young with no kids and probably living at home for the first few of those 10 years.

I am 23. I have €15,211.34 in my bank account.

Luckily I live with my parents in a social housing so I pay very low rent. Saving €1000 per month (earning €32,600 gross per year). Wish I could increase my earning capability so I can save faster and buy a house but it doesn't look too good.

Thanks for the genuine reply.

Just over 3k in the bank, could save more but prefer to have a life and spend.

Thanks for the genuine reply.

A 28 year old with 70k plus In your account and a decent salary and your renting. You're not the most intelligent.

I've a decent bank account, my own home, my own business x4 and a ****ing rake of negative equity. But I'm very happy and my family are healthy.

I know I am not the most intelligent. Which has made me wonder why all my friends and loads of people with well paying jobs go around like they are just making ends meat. If I can have this saved, it should be the same for most even if they were splashing plenty of cash.

OP gave his salary and his current account balance. He did not say who else might be lodging in to his account, gift, inheritance, etc. Keeping that amount in his current account indicates he's not exactly financially astute

None of those things I get.

Also never said I was financially astute. I was wondering how much other people my age and salary have.

Can I ask you a genuine question ? What is missing in your life that you feel the need to gloat on a forum ?

I asked a question and only a few people have answered. The rest have focused on me answering my own question.

Because everyone I know who's on decent wage acts like they're just making ends meat. You always hear people "oh I can't wait until payday" or "it's been so long since we've been paid".

So I was wondering what peoples situation is like.

Would you bank transfer the money to my account, just so I can verify?

Your salary is close to the average annual earnings for FT workers in Ireland.

So you have an above-average salary for a 28-year-old.

Your savings of 78k are above-average for your age.

Did you save all 78k out of earnings?

Or was some gifted to you?

The only way to do that it is by transferring all the money to my bitcoin address.

Because I asked the question how much do you have and if I didn't give my own situation no one would reply because I didn't give my own situation.

30 years old, single, between 3 and 4k in the bank.

None of my colleagues or friends say statements like that.

Maybe because most of them earn 50-85k.

At least into an account that can't be cleared out by some chancer getting your debit card detail or online account details.
