You're 26 and you own a 330,000 house that's probably worth now more than half a million? In Dublin? How the fuck did you manage that?! Fair play to you...but seriously, how? Is there some financial institution giving out free money somewhere? Cos I'm a journalist too and I barely own my own duvet! I realise how nosey this sounds, but I'm always intrigued when people my age seem to be able to buy houses. So sorry for being unspeakably rude and asking about money...but again, how did you manage it?
