Irish salaries

How much income would you need to have in Dublin/Ireland to be considered well-off/rich?

Tell us how much you make and we'll tell you if you're well off or broke. I'm guessing broke if you have to ask

depends how many expenses you have I guess. It would be easy enough to be considered well off in Dublin if you have a few years expenses in some Tech/Eng/Finance roles and don't have a family and you have 3-6 months salary in the bank if it all goes to ****.

Near Knock/Connacht you would need enough coins collected from an airport runway to create a mosaic of the Roman Empire. What was the question again? Oh yes, in Ireland/Europe there is an onshore island. Otherwise Nick Nolte wouldn't be rich/poor in that fictional role.

The ability to buy outright a 3 bedroom house in the county you live each year on your disposable income, that's my marker.

This is it

No weekends? Some sort of alternate timeline?

It kinda depends on how long that piece of string is and whether it's long enough.

Any man should be able to keep a family for 100 euros a week. If he can't he's not a real man.

Depends on your expenses.

My own are:

45 pints (in about two hours)
Packet of crips
An aul packet of peanuts
10 more anyway
Ingredients for a fry (thanks Maureen)
Replacement of several shirts.

So quite manageable

It's subjective.

A 20 year old shelf stacker living with the mother in Finglas will possibly have more disposable income than a Google technician living in Grand Canal Dock.

This is it, also that google tech could be living with their mother in Finglas and be unbelievably flush but a few months later gets his gf pregnant and needs to sort out accommodation for the 3 of them and is suddenly not so well off.

Google techs procreate?:pac:

To be fair I worked for a time with the West European expat types in Dublin.

Most of them are tighter than a nun. And they have no qualms about spending over half their take home wage on a single room, they simply adapt by forgoing such basic human needs as pints, takeaways, nice clothes, and cycling everywhere rather than running a car or taking the bus.
