A President's Greed!

When the economy on it's knees and an unemployment rate of 14% - why is the head of one of Ireland's renowned universities complaining that he is finding it hard to live on a salary of €232,000/pa.

Some people have only €188/week to live on, and yet you Dr. Michael Murphy are complaining about not being able to afford a mortgage payment and a luxury car. Now granted you got to where you are now because you are a smart person - but really how can you be so naive and expect anyone to be sympathetic to your situation. The average man and woman are having to make sacrifices, and you should too.

You need to decide which is worth more to you - a mortgage payment or a luxury car. This is what it comes down to if you are complaining about not being able to afford your lifestyle as it is now. You need to prioritize and think, how much am I willing to sacrifice to live within your means. It would just be selfish to live beyond your means when the country is on its knees!

So I urge you to think about your comments and realize that giving your money away is not the answer to feeling better about your wealth. You reap what you sow and if you want a quick fifteen minutes of looking good then go ahead, but just realize people will see through your fake charity.

If you really meant it then you would not boast about your donations.

Keep chuckin them deuces
