Colm O’Regan: “I worked as a human scarecrow for six weeks”  

Interest rates in Irish legacy banks aren't particularly enticing for savers, so are there other avenues that will get you more bang for your buck? Dan Malone is a regular contributor to Indo Money, a qualified financial adviser and accountant and he has just launched Honest.ie. He’s here to tell us how and why we need to pay attention to financial literacy. 

His goal is to offer unbiased advice on savings and investments in Ireland and to improve on the generally poor levels of financial literacy he sees here.

We often hear that switching to a different service provider can save you hundreds, if not thousands. And yet, many people are reluctant to make the move. Is it the effort? The research required?
