Over 1.85m living off €100 or less after bills are paid

More than 1.85m people across Ireland have €100 or less to live on at the end of the month, once they have paid all their bills.

That is according to the latest 'What's left' tracker survey from the Irish League of Credit Unions.

The figure has risen by 35,000 since the last study in June.

Today's research also shows 70% of people can't put any money aside as savings.
