Tomorrow in Prosperous we start our trial of the 4 day work week. We will run it for July and August and see how we go. Really well received by all the team. Our attitude is we are all big enough to know what needs to be done, so let’s do it and get the work life balance right.

Wow. I recently posted a survey on my Instagram. I asked if people would consider a move to live and work outside their city, now that remote working is the norm. Over 5,000 people replied and 74% said they would move to the country. That's pretty decisive. #workingfromhome

I was in the @boarsheaddublin earlier and the phone rang. Hugh picks it up….. “Hello, the boars head” …… “No he’s not here, I believe he isn’t in the country” …. “Thanks, bye” I asked Hugh, what was that about. “They wanted to know was @ShaneLowryGolf here” 😂😂

Government say they can’t cap energy prices as it would be like “writing a blank cheque for the energy companies” 1. Why are government happy for all of us to “write a blank cheque” when they won’t themselves. 2. They are government, so govern. Stop the spiralling prices.

Eoin has taken a lot of negative comments on Instagram for this video. But as a CFP he has a fiduciary responsibility to clients. Instead of expecting him to do his job poorly, we should expect the government to accept that rent controls are flawed.
