Money can make you happier, says Dragon's Den star who has been on both sides

By Marianne Flood

The DERRY born star of Ireland’s Dragon’s Den says money will make you happier and he can tell you how to get it.

Peter Casey, founder and Executive Chairman of global recruitment agency Claddagh Resources, will be the first keynote speaker at the GROW Entrepreneurship Festival in the city next Wednesday.

Peter says he will divulge his ‘Ten Commandments of Success’ and ‘Seven Deadly Sins to Avoid’ based on his personal experiences and those of his multi-millionaire friends.

“It’s a myth that money doesn’t make you happy,” he said

“It really does - trust me. I’ve been on both sides and it’s much nicer when you have got it and you can go into a restaurant and not have to look at the price of the wine you are buying.”
