An insolvent accountant is surely the ultimate ignominy

Mary Wilson (reading a listener email): What happens to my home if I enter into a PIA?

Jim Stafford: Well, under the legislation the PIP is to try and keep the family in their family home if at all possible. The PIP will have to assess the existing mortgage on the family home, if it's a modest house, if it's a trophy house.

In practice, the PIP will also have to assess the type of house that might be needed for a professional person such as a solicitor, accountant or a hospital consultant as opposed to a house that's needed by someone who is in the PAYE sector for example, so that, as a PIP, I would be making a very strong case, for example, that a solicitor should have a bigger house that accords with his professional status in society so that his neighbours and clients can see that, yes, this person is a good solicitor who's is living in a good house etc. etc.

MW: Really?

JS: Absolutely. The same as for hospital consultants, people like that

MW: Despite the fact that he's insolvent?

JS: Despite the fact that he's insolvent, because remember, if we want the solicitor to continue to earn money or the accountant or the hospital consultant it's important that he has his tools of trade for example

MW: Well, he may need an office, but he hardly needs a palatial house in South County Dublin

JS: Believe me, the clients who we have on our books are insisting they continue to stay in their palatial houses, now, it's possible that some of them might have to down trade, but that all goes into the pot and at the end of the day the banks, the creditors have to agree to that process.

He did it yesterday, I heard it yesterday. The dirt*TY pric***K.
He said that the solicitors all "Needed to keep their homes to show to their neighbours that they earned money"

SEPT 23 1989 · 10-09-2013 2:03pm

vicwatson · 10-09-2013 2:05pm

I can never understand why a Solicitor is lumped in with a Hospital Consultant, the latter has a guaranteed income of minimum €250,000.00 from the state, how are they the same?

Only the big Solicitor firms in Dublin have guaranteed income and that comes from Government business, but only the big firms get this work. There are tonnes of Solicitors struggling just like a PAYE worker.

DuckHook · 10-09-2013 2:06pm

He is in the hole up to his neck at this stage...

JM Skipton · 10-09-2013 2:08pm

Jim must have missed the last 3 weeks of his elocution lessons.....hasn't quite got the full posh accent

ThisRegard · 10-09-2013 2:08pm

Did she just say pretty much the same as the other guys opening line ?

JonathanAnon · 10-09-2013 2:08pm

I bet she still owes him money.

Those working class people always short change you.
