…Maybe we ain’t that young anymore -
Originally posted by The_Equalizer View PostDepends on a whole myriad of things. Do I think the pound continuing to soften from these levels would be a good thing - no. Does a bit of inflation hurt - depends whether wages pick up - but it's the only solution to the vast debts we have. The thing is, I hope the UK does well. I would have hoped the same had we voted Remain.Comment

With Brexit looming this is a Scrodingers Cat situation , when the box is opened (Brexit Terms and conditions are known) then pound will go up as the uncertainty stops , I have a lot of money riding on this , of course when they call its name (lets call it Boris) and it no longer responds then that's when the pound slumps back again.Warning unicorn meat may give you hallucinationsComment
