    Not paying any taxes should make for a bit of spare cash.

    I'd imagine I could save a few pennies if I lived in a hand-me-down caravan.

    I'd go out and spend it on fancy cars and getting trashed.

    Prudent investment portfolios with a combination of blue-chip stocks and several up-and-coming companies.

    Either:

    This is an amazing troll by a traveller in disguise.

    or

    This is ridiculous.

    The traaaaavellers I've seen recently have been cycling no-handed on bikes or upstairs on the bus.

    They extorted every pot of gold from the entire leprechaun community before killing them off in the late 18th century, they disguised this holocaust by burying the leprechaun bodies in those ridiculously big knacker graves.

    they also stole the leprechaun accent and have used it ever since.

    Darby O'Gill wasn't a leprechan. King Brian however did look and act like a tinker.
