I have a podcast on Spotify called “The Irish Law and Small Business Podcast”. It has grown steadily since I first published on Spotify and I am extremely pleased with the platform to promote my podcast and work. I received a message on the platform this morning when I went in to check the analytics,… Continue reading Spotify has comments now

Becoming inured to the bigotry and bile
I am never surprised nowadays about some of the hate, bile, bigotry, anti-diluvian, knuckle dragging comments I received on my YouTube and TikTok videos. It’s sad, though. And the saddest part is that I am becoming inured to it and expect them. For example, I recently made and published a video about two traveller boys… Continue reading Becoming inured to the bigotry and bile
Private beliefs versus the law of the land
A person commented on my YouTube channel at the weekend looking for me to do a video about a gym instructor who has lost his/her job because they “did not believe in gay marriage”. I probably will do a video about this topic because it has become a topic with a high profile thanks to… Continue reading Private beliefs versus the law of the land
I ended up shouting at the so-called marketing expert
I ended up shouting at the podcast episode I was listening to on my morning cycle over around Kinnegad, Clogherinkoe and back home. The so-called expert, Mark Schaeffer, on the Social Media Marketing Podcast was talking about Social Media Marketing nowadays and how much it has changed over the last 10 or 20 years. He… Continue reading I ended up shouting at the so-called marketing expert
Undue influence and wills
One thing I always must be acutely aware of is an elderly person making a will under the influence of another. Alarm bells will go off in my head when I see certain things from the arranging of the appointment to the consultation/meeting with the person wanting to put their affairs in order. It is… Continue reading Undue influence and wills
Looking to “do a deal” with Pepper or any other lender
I have regular consultations with people who have debt difficulties. Much of this debt is an overhang or legacy from the Celtic Tiger years leading up to the property crash in 2008. The debt has not gone away in many cases. But the person sitting in front of me in my office is looking to… Continue reading Looking to “do a deal” with Pepper or any other lender
Trying different things and finding winners
I’m never really surprised when I discover, purely accidentally, that something works and is popular with readers of my blogs or viewers of my videos. That’s because I try so many different things, and experiment with formats. Recently I have begun to make some videos down the canal bank in Enfield or at the railway… Continue reading Trying different things and finding winners
Choosing an estate agent to sell your house
Choosing an estate agent to sell your house will involve a few important considerations. One of the most important factors will be your gut feel when you first meet him/her. But don’t fall for one of the oldest tricks in the book. Let’s say you see three estate agents and two of them value your… Continue reading Choosing an estate agent to sell your house
Delegating is easy until..
Delegating is easy until you have an important task to accomplish. Then, the temptation is to step in and take over. To make sure it is done right. But this is a mistake. And is not delegating. So, I have to trust and let her get on with it. It’s still not easy, though. But… Continue reading Delegating is easy until..
Starting your own business
I am regularly contacted by individuals who are starting up their own business or have already started. And it is obvious to me that they will fail. They are asking the wrong questions or are underfinanced or are unable to see the things about which they cannot cut corners. The simply cannot discern and discriminate… Continue reading Starting your own business
