Golden goose killed. What now?

I really hoped the Remainers would stop with the lies and scaremongering after the result but its actually getting worse this morning.

The BBC fell for it. They had it as one of their flash headlines for a while.

City won't be the same , pound tumbled so it won't be as profitable to earn in pound.
The hell brexiters, what were you thinking ???!!!

I earn in USD

BOOM!

Give it a week. Everything will be back to normal.

and if it isn't, a weak pound is far from disastrous.

The UK could start raising interest rates slightly, and thereby maybe help fire up the whole World economy, which is currently in the doldrums.

Looks like Sturgeon is making noises about Indyref2. Apparently "Scotland" wants to stay in the EU and feels cheated.
IIRC, Cameron first mooted the idea of an EU Referendum in 2013, over a year before the Scots voted by a significant margin to remain as part of the UK.
Most of those with brains would have realised that a NO to Indy vote at that point offered no guarantees whatsoever that a Leave Vote might not prevail.
Yet somehow it is now being portrayed (by a desperate YES camp admittedly) as having been some massive surprise.
They are also trying to claim some sort of Scottish consensus for staying in the EU(based on getting 62% of a 67% turnout i.e. around 42% of all of those entitled to vote, in other words their core vote)
Bring it on then Nicola if you dare, you still have one foot left to shoot a hole in!

You should GAS because the UK exists in an international context, not in its own self-sufficient bubble.

I was referring to exchange rates.

So was I. Weaker pound means that imports - oil, food - become more expensive. The pounds you're earning won't be buying you as much. Hopefully, it's temporary, and the rates will improve as the plan for Brexit gets rolled out, and the uncertainty concerning Britain's economic future settles down.

I can see the Euro taking a larger long term hit than Sterling. Once the dust cloud has settled, £ will be better and people will panic that Germany is the only financial powerhouse that can bolster the Euro.
