Kildare DJ says travel comes before designer shoes and handbags

Co Kildare DJ and model Daniella Moyles says that life is too short to worry about money.

In an interview about how she manages her finances, Daniella (28) claims she gets very little satisfaction from material purchases.

The co-host of Spin 103.8's breakfast show Fully Charged, said she spends the most money on travelling abroad.

She explained: "I will usually save and then splurge on an incredible trip. I don't own any designer shoes or bags and all of my clothes are high street, but my passport is full of stamps and I'm building a pretty impressive collection of memories and life lessons."

Daniella said her first job was in The Playbarn in Naas at the weekends and during the summer holidays.

She told The Sunday Times today: "I'll never forget the feeling of independence that came with collecting my own small paycheck."

She added that when it comes to spending, her ethos is: "If you can even kind of afford it, do it.

"Again, life's too short. I really try not to let money dictate things too much for me because it can dilute what's important. I most definitely work to live."
