Seven-year-old’s golden nest egg pays for Disney trip

LIKE most little boys, Joseph Kirk, 7, is cock-a-hoop at flying off to Disney World in Florida for a dream holiday.

However, the Monaghan schoolboy has extra reason to enjoy his trip because, while most parents must bring home the bacon to fund such an adventure, Joseph used his nugget and came up with a egg-cellent plan to pay his own way.

Two years ago, when he was just five years of age, his parents, Marie and Martin, taught him a valuable lesson – you can’t make an omelette without breaking some eggs.
