When you realise that people who were born in 2002 can now vote and drink.

When everything is too loud and you want to be in bed at 10pm with the electric blanket on. While enjoying a Werthers Original.

Ubbquittious

Matching with a stunning looking beour on Tinder or one of those and upon realising she is only 23 deciding I can't be bothered anymore

MAP2 is their low risk fund. 3 and 5 year returns are positive. It had a bad year in 2018 but didn't get near the -5% figure you quoted.

You'd be crazy not to avail of the tax relief available.

Surreptitious

When you think you have finished going to the toilet but you have to go back another few times.

I think the fact you use boards.ie is a sign you're getting old. All the young 'uns are on Reddit and other things I've never even heard of.

The verb “to go” takes on an entirely different meaning.

ie. “my back’s gone again”

Turning the volume right up on the radio when the obituaries come on and if anyone around you is making noise telling them in no uncertain terms to shhhsh. Come to think of it listening to the radio these times is in itself probably a sign that your getting old.

On a similar note, if I type the letter 'r' into my browser, the first site that comes up is rip.ie.

For my current pension fund the "low risk" option which is basically gov't bonds had a stated annual yield of -5%. And that was before the Covid-19 government money tree that relies on rock bottom bond interest rates going even lower.

Same on a pillow.
Obviously not same amount, but get the best quality where possible instead of one for 5 quid in IKEA.

Given the tax relief available on pension contributions, any higher rate taxpayer who has their overall financial situation under control would be crazy to not sign up to one voluntarily.

The retirement age will be over seventy by the time I get to retirement. Just inject me and sent my remains to the soylent factory when I'm longer economicaly viable.

I can remember as 19-20 yr olds 6 or 7 of us went to saints in Howth
Home about 4 ,met up at 9am for a match in Ashbourne
Had to stop the bus a few times for lads to get sick .
Played the match and won
Back to the Donaghmede Inn for a few pints after the game
Good old days

Oh yeah the stink of beer on the pitch. I remember carrying an "injury" on to the pitch one morning. Dirty one night stand and I had carpet burns on both knees after a particularly vigrorous yet attentive love making session. Both knees started to bleed on the pitch.

I had to come off at half time that day...back pinting within the hour...:D

If they don't mind being ridiculed - any age

If they wish to avoid being ridiculed - over 60

Long gone are the days I would fall out of nightclub after 9-10 pints/shots and still tog out a few hours later for the local soccer team.

In fact many the time I went to the match in the same clothes having either fallen asleep at home or just got back in the time....:o

Now I have a woolly after 2 pints.
