Sir, – It is reported that Irish households have record savings with the headline figure from The Central Bank suggesting this equates to savings worth €200,000 for every man, woman and child in the state (“Wealth of Irish households rises above €1tn for first time”, News, August 3rd).
I wish we had decided to have more kids, I really could do with the money. – Yours, etc,
