Having no money (1 Viewer)

[magicbastarder]

so are most of ireland, in the form of mortgages, when you think about it. I'm quite calm in that I only owe the bank about 200k.

indeed. i worked out this morning that my current mortgage repayments work out at comfortably over €17k per year.
that's probably the gross earnings of someone working on minimum wage.

That's still a good €300 a month less than the average cost of renting a two bed apartment in Dublin city.

i have no money because, get this, there is a chap with my name who has been using my PPS number. got my wages on friday and about 75% had gone in tax. his wages were added to mine pushing me into the high tax band then backdated. they are sorting it out now but it's unlikely that it'll be sorted before christmas. so i have about €1.25 to get to to the end of january.

sweet!!!

Ironically, there is'nt a job available to me that could cover my monthly expenses, and this horseshit is the only way to earn (and lose) large amounts of dough quickly enough.

the precarity of it would have you on the toilet all day.

Interesting thread, I often weigh up where I live and my job, ie if I was to pull a posh bird her parents wouldn't be too enamoured with my area/job prospects, then on the other hand I have my own car and always have cash in my pocket and I'm excellent with my money.
I have a fruit and veg round 2 days a week but Jane wouldn't prob like my Bananas.

[killy kill]

I have 50 euros to last me for the foreseeable future. Not including presents for 3 people. Fuck

 

[Janer]

But you live in Cork, not as many things to spend your money on.

 

[jane]

I'm very good with my money, it's just that I am owed a shitload for work I've already done, and I work my bloody ass off, thank you very much.

Currently having to live off money that I was loaned for the wedding, only now I don't have any money for that. I don't have a seamstress either, so I also still have no dress to wear, and I can't afford the ripoff merchants at the bridal places anyway. Besides, I've been working so much that I haven't had time to bring any dresses to anyone, and I don't have anyone to help me carry them even if I did.

 

[Janer]

Surely there has to be some dressmakers here, contacts in walks of life are important.
For instance if you knew Janer he would be handy for the fruit and veg he sometimes has over each week that he gives away freely 'cos deep down he really is a loving fun guy, although you won't talk him out of his views on abortion.
