This week, we decided to switch things up a bit by engaging with one of our listeners instead of consulting a financial expert. We spoke to Aine, who reached out with a question during Season 1 of Understanding Money. We got in touch with Aine and invited her to join us on the show! Together, we delve into a range of topics, from pensions and savings to everyday expenditure and everything in between. And of course, we address your questions in our Q&A. Got a question for Eoin?

This week we are talking about the attractiveness of Ireland - be it for those who left years ago and are contemplating a return, or for those considering Ireland as their new home for the first time. There is a lot of negative press around Ireland as a whole at the moment. What we wanted to do on this episode was look at the positive side of where we are as a country right now, and what makes it an attractive destination. Joining us in this discussion is Steven, who generously shares his personal journey and experiences with relocating to Ireland.Brought to you by GoCar. Got a question for Eoin?

In this week’s episode, we're diving into the world of self-employment. Taking that leap can be very scary, but it's all about getting your ducks in a row before you make the jump.

We talk to Karina today, sharing her journey from PAYE worker, getting a pay slip every week to venturing out on her own. Hopefully after you listen you have a better feel for the ins and outs of being self-employed.Brought to you by GoCar.Got a question for Eoin?
