We're the third largest ethnic group in the US after german and mexican. There are 7 times more irish in the US than in ireland.

we are generally middle class bureaucrats and business owners. We're disproportionately represent voters, we shape culture, and we tend to inhabit positions of local power if not national. Many of us are absurdly wealthy compared to our families that stayed in ireland. Most of us really. If OP thinks that house is expensive he should know it would be worth about 40 times as much in the US. And lots of irish here could easily afford it.

this is normal in other places too. Probably most places.

I don't know about anyone else, but I rented from 18-22. Bought a trailer home with the help of my wife's parents at 22. Sold it in a divorce.
Then bought a house at 29 again with the help of my 2nd wife's parents.

it's not normal to afford a house at 20 or 30. About half the people in the US will never afford a house. It's ok. You get on with your life and enjoy what you've got. If you get a chance to buy a house that's cool, but it's not as great a thing as you might imagine. It's a lot of work and expense, and you're sorta stuck with it for 10 years or so.

we actually took pride in marrying outside our race. Now we're considered white, but in the 1800's to early 1900's we were the niggers in the US. Marrying a british or german was a step up from irish. So most did it.

the irish in the US were hated, and marrying other races and nationalities was a step up the social ladder

so not only are most "irish" here complete mutts,
but it's also ironic when any "irish" takes pride in their heritage, no matter how small it is.

be like taking great pride in being black or gypsy. There were times when people tried to hide their ancestry. In some places those times still exist.

not in the US though. Not if you're german, mexican, or irish. We pretty much own the place.

if you sit $3,000,000 in an investment that makes even a paltry 5% returns in a year that is an income of $150,000 just on the initial interest. You can definitely live modestly on this sum and save some of that to compound further.

Tons of employment opportunities here with the caveat that you live in Dublin. There is no point living in pic related because there is no fucking work. I grew up in a house/area exactly like that, you can't even get proper internet a large percentage of the time. During winter you'll probably get stuck in the house due to ice on the roads and your electricity might get knocked off. This happened to me yearly on average 2 weeks at a time.
Then you'll have some gobshite farmers hunting on your land with no repercussions because the gardai are the laziest shower of cunts going or you'll grow elderly there and await getting murdered in a robbery by knackers and no one will do anything about it. There's also immigrants from poorer countries constantly dumping in your bins to avoid paying bin charges because even if they're caught they know they'll never be punished. It is "cheap" for a reason.

So you can live in Dublin, but it's completely bonkers in costs - and even if you can afford it, good luck finding anything. Competition is nuts. I know people who have money and good jobs and still looking for a year just to find somewhere to rent. To which it'll be 2,000 euros for a tiny apartment with an hour commute riddled with mold and freezing in the winter.

>>56175915
You could not be more wrong if you tried. I actually laughed at this post. Closest secondary school to where I grew up was a 40 minute DRIVE each way. There is nothing out in these towns, a lot of them have no businesses because they all shuttered up in 2008. They don't even have basic services like banks or post offices anymore so you have to drive 30-60 minutes to a more major town (still tiny) to access these services. Government only has interest in investing in Dublin and that is it.
Rural Ireland has an unemployment rate of 40% or some shit, it's not because people don't want to work, it's because there are literally no jobs down there.

And how exactly is that any better? Them not having any services is as good as no civilization. In a town with a population of 500 people, you will not be welcomed if you are not already from there. There is nothing to do and no one to talk to. My parents moved to the countryside when I was around 5 years old and they still avoid me and consider me a blow in from the city even though I was fucking raised there. If I have kids there they'll be treated the same because I don't have a million cousins and aunties out there.
All you can do is go to the pub and drink, and it's some shite pub filled with 70 year old alcoholics who never go home. These "towns" are barely towns anyway, they are like a road with 15 houses tops and maybe 1 small newsagents. Fact is you have to drive and drive quite a fair fucking bit to actually have a life there, which is a far stretch from your previous comments of "oh no it's far from the city" and there being a few small towns within a 10-15 minute radius. There fucking isn't and it's obvious you've never lived in this scenario because you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
