Question:Which is the correct phrase, is it "Living the life of Ryan" or "Living the life of Reilly"?
ive heard it both ways. i know it means, living the easy life, no worries. but both people insist they are right. some people never heard this expression, so i cant get astraight answer and i know one of the two sounds realy stupid if its wrong, so i dnt want ot use it unless its right

Answers:
"Living the life of Ryan"
19th century songs some say, tis:

"Living the good life"

Also a film and popular American TV series in the 1950's with William Bendixx
Its Reilly from the movie The Life of Reilly very old movie like the 1940"s.
Living the life of Reilly
it is liveing the life of reilly
Reilly is correct
Another vote for Reilly - I watched the TV show "The Life of Reilly" when I was young - in the 50's - William Bendix was Reilly. The title means he had a real easy life. Normally people will say it when they are teasing someone - or - trying to get some lazy person to get going! Like: "Boy, don't you have the life of Reilly?" Jealousy, perhaps.
