Entrepreneur, Investor & Financial Independent Enthusiast Introducing Michael Houghton
Originally from New Zealand and now living in Ireland, I've spent the last fifteen years developing and growing businesses.
I graduated from the University of Auckland in 2005 with a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Management and Entrepreneurship.
I have had the chance to establish unique businesses in various industries, including a web development services company, a hockey coaching company and a FOREX trading company.
I am also a very experienced web developer and have over 15 years experience as a freelance web developer.
I am passionate about financial Independence and in June 2018 launched PlayingWithFire.ie, which tells the story of my journey towards financial independence.
I'm constantly hunting for new opportunities and seeking to grow and expand new companies when opportunities present themself.
