BB, Adam, when you become a millionaires then I think you will be only coming over to Ireland as tax exiles like all the pop stars used to do in the 80's. The recession is pretty bad over here, a lot of people on three day weeks or none at all.
Yeah Adam set up your shop, even a small garage somewhere while you're building the business. You'd be surprised how quickly word of mouth spreads & the good publicity you'll get from it.
Advertisements for work on websites such as Gumtree, loot etc are inexpensive. If you're still on good terms with your ex-bosses then they'll probably throw you their overflow work as well.
Don't leave too long as you how time flies when you get that a bit older, one year becomes ten years. You'll lose the ambition & motivation to do anything & then regret that you never bothered.
Best wishes.....
