    Conversations with Revenue

    Today, we're engaging in a conversation with Revenue, accompanied by Davena Lyons from the Collector General Division. Despite the perception of Revenue as the 'Big Bad Wolf', we aim to debunk some of these myths and understand their role better, as well as discussing some important deadlines in the tax year.

    Stepping up your Finances

    Stepping up your Finances

    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.

    Protection

    In this week's episode, our focus is on the critical topic of protection - life cover, specified illness cover, and income protection. Rather than talking about the ins and outs of policies, our aim is to spotlight individuals where protection helped them out at a time in their life that really need it.

    Ireland: The land of Opportunities

    Ireland: The land of Opportunities

    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.
