I just do not understand the Irish Govt's stance on this. I do not advocate an 'open door' policy but as anyone (wealthy or not) in the EU can arrive in Ireland and avail themselves of welfare etc I cannot understand why Ireland sets such high levels of income requirements on US citizens. US citizens are probably the only people who do not expect 'hand outs'. I mean who, in heaven's name, has an income of 50,000 Euros? Only the rich. From my experience of living in Ireland 2015/2016 one can live on a lot less than 50,000 Euros (and that is a couple) especially if one has private health insurance. All I can say is Good Luck to you all!
