Hi from Dublin, Ireland

Hi everyone!

Was just searching google for an article I'm writing about to see whether or not the perceived link between age and success has any merit, when I came accross this forum! It looks like a great source of info and I look forward to bouncing ideas around! Any positive or negative stories of being told that "you're very young to have your own business" would be appreciated!

For some background info, I left the world of banking 3 months ago and set up Posh Fizz Ltd - an events management company for vip ladies events in Ireland.

It's tough, but I love it!!

I'll be in both your areas next summer. Sold my old domain name for 5k (usd) and decided to take me and my wife to Ireland next summer. My folks will be along for the ride.

Isnt galway the town where baleek is made? My wife im sure will spend a few thousand there. But it something we've both wanted to do.

Thanks

Thanks for the welcome!

Was actually in Portumna myself for the bank holiday weekend. If I didn't live in Dublin, I'd choose to live in Galway - I love it there!

Great that there's a few paddys on the site! My business is going well... it's still early days but I've had loads of enquiries and bookings. I think women are realising that they deserve some pampering! I've also had a few stag parties make bookings which is great! I'm not sure if I'm allowed put up my website? It's poshfizz.com if you want to have a look. Apologies if I'm not supposed to - it's just easier to show what I do!
