Nice. Interesting guy. Some notes:
First off. I doubt this guy is rich or from a rich family. He might be, but he could quiet easily be self made.
Everyone who is smart and motivated, or just motivated, in Ireland can get a degree . Education is (mostly) free up to the end of your primary degree and they might even throw in a grant depending on your family status. Jobs were very plentiful around the time he was doing his degree so he could have easily worked up some travel capital during that time.
Ryanair flights around Europe can be a couple of quid, if you're an opportunist.
You can see from the country list below that as an EU citizen he would have legally been able to work and travel to all the EU countries. And it is pretty easy for a guy with a tech degree to get Visas to most countries, including the US. But I'd guess he probably did work illegally in some of the countries.
He from Cavan in Ireland, it is a small, out of the way county right in the middle. There aren't a lot of people there and if you want a decent job you probably would have to move to Dublin or elsewhere. And most of the populous are half mad anyway.
