Budget 2023

Everybody got something but some will feel they're group got less. I mentioned mortgage paying people on €35K not getting a whole pile from this in contrast to those on welfare or earning €40K or more yesterday. Over the course of time they may fare better. Reducing the SRCOP back to €39K or reducing welfare eligibility by the stroke of a pen could happen within 18 months. The global outlook is not good.

SF looking for certainty is a bit like Stephen Kenny trying to get Erling Haland to declare for Ireland. There is no certainty anywhere about anything in 2022 except in probably basket case state Nothern Ireland with it's non functioning economy, democracy or political system.

Someone on €35k would have a mortgage of around €120k max. given bank lending conditions. Repayment on a mortgage of €120k would be in the region of €600 a month.

That’d be less than 30% of their take home pay. They’re doing alright given the fact they own their own home tbh
 
Lets say things stabilise next year energy cost wise, inflation drops, Good luck to the government if they
try to drop welfare rates,
Inflation won't drop, it might stabilise but it won't drop. I wouldn't worry too much about the possibility of needing to drop welfare rates tbphwy.

If you're paying a mortgage you don't own the house you're living in. Just default and see what happens.
