Hi all,
Im currently looking for some guidance/advice as to what approach to take when it comes to making some investments. Im considering seeking an independent financial advisor also as I really dont know what best approach to take and currently Im not doing anything ie. leaving my money sitting in a bank account doing nothing. If anyone had a recomendation of one in Dublin, I would appreciate that also.
My current situation: Im 29 years old, recently graduated as went back to University as a mature student, working as a trainee Accountant for the past year earning in the low €30k per year range. I am renting and am currently not saving a penny of my earnings. I feel like I have decent earning potential in the next couple of years with a yearly bonus/salary reviews and hoping to be fully qualified in two years time. Although saying that, the price of living in Dublin means I probably wont be saving from my salary over the next couple of years.
I have ~ €100k in savings mainly from an inheritance that I have sitting in a basic savings account. In the short term, I wont really need this at all but in the medium term, I would be hoping to purchase a house. This is certainly I would say at least 3 years down the line. Now, I did look into opening a Degiro account and investing in a variety of low fee ETF's but as I hold both an Irish and US passport, Im not sure if I can. Im not sure of the ins and outs of what holding a US passport limits me from investing in.
Any advice on what type of investment plan given my situation? Would sitting down with a financial advisor be best?
