if the Irish people and government are so good at managing money why are we in this mess?
whatever happened to saving for a rainy day? we had money and the people demanded that it be spent to be spent. throw money around. now the party is over and we are left with a hangover.
in the good times we did not need the EU, but still took their money.

I never said the ALL the Irish people are good at managing their money, I also never said the Irish government are good at managing money.

I said I can manage my money perfectly well.

From your posts you seem to be blaming the whole mess on every Irish person.

A lot of people did not spend beyond their means and saved for their purchases. I, like many others did not spend what I didn't have.

You can't blame every Irish person for the wreckless spending and borrowing that was done by some.

For what it's worth I am pissed off too: I saved, invested and spent my money wisely and have always worked and paid taxes here, so I'm pissed that this budget fecks me up too.
