All these reports are given to media before release, without the media coverage nobody reads them. The correct approach is to have the reports front page of your own site with a splash and some reaction quotes given to media also, which public bodies are quite bad at, as in this case, but at least the report was findable.
Media should provide a link (or host) any report they do an article on. However I think they like being gatekeepers of the agenda.
Or a super sized medium cafe latte with semi skimmed milk and half a teaspoon of sugar.Being confronted with "small", "medium" and "large" when shopping must be a nightmare!
Sliced pan goes in the freezer. Just had the two crusts toasted off a Brennans this morning and dumped the wrapper, expiry date was December 12th.Or a super sized medium cafe latte with semi skimmed milk and half a teaspoon of sugar.
Sliced pans are too large for two people.
While I'm sure some people live with less than that, it would represent an income of 30k for a working couple for the modest lifestyle and 48k for comfortable. I don't think of a lot of working couple earn only 30k. And working couples earning 48k would probably not consider themselves comfortable.But these numbers are above what a lot of people live on before retirement so doesn't make sense really
That’s more interesting than the article. Oddly I find it’s the people in the comfortable category I hear about getting free public transport. Shopping trips and the like on the train to Dublin or Cork. I know people who do this regularly.Well found, I think the comfortable definition is pretty accurate and more useful than the UK comparison they gave. You could quibble about whether they need to have saving included monthly, but I guess it’s part of the allowing multiple holidays spaced through year.
It's when you take the figures and work backwards to add the extra costs of living pre retirement it doesn't seem add up to pre retirement incomes. Especially costs of raising family.While I'm sure some people live with less than that, it would represent an income of 30k for a working couple for the modest lifestyle and 48k for comfortable.

That’s not it at all, they are provided what the release says and usually no link or extra information. Release usually comes from or company not the body themselves and they don’t have control on the actual information.Media should provide a link (or host) any report they do an article on.

Doesn’t work for sandwiches though, as when de freezing they go a bit hard. Makes the best toast though, with Kerry gold.Sliced pan goes in the freezer. Just had the two crusts toasted off a Brennans this morning and dumped the wrapper, expiry date was December 12th.
I’ll be in Dublin tomorrow, but won’t have time to see you in Switzers. Their cafe in Cork is actually very good value as it’s quality is high.I thought I had asked you not to tell people about my shopping trips?

It depends on the couple. If the 2 are working, about 48K.How much would a couple need to earn to have an income of €43k a year net pre-retirement?

My point was that a lot of working couple do live on more than that, even if they don't feel it as their expenses are higher.It's when you take the figures and work backwards to add the extra costs of living pre retirement it doesn't seem add up to pre retirement incomes.

The “comfortable” figure for singles is a lot lower than the equivalent RLS figure in the UK (just shy of €50k).
Obviously it’s very subjective, but I wouldn’t consider €33k a year to be particularly “comfortable”.
Still, it’s an interesting piece of work.
