Anyway lawyer in Portugal has told me to hold fire and not buy until the UK's position is clear.
If we're out of the EU, I'll buy under the Golden Visa program.
So that's why I want resolution either way - cash doesn't earn anything at all, still thinking where to park it.

“Imagine if a company knew the exact terms a competitor had with its supply chain, we are in a similar position. We can also negotiate specific deals on an individual country-to-country level, rather than terms that have to be acceptable to all the EU members. We’ll be able to say, ‘Let’s work something out that benefits both of us, instead of all of the EU'.”Originally posted by OwlHoot View Post
This man is incompetent and shouldn't be a CEO.
He doesn't know that individual countries in the EU can't make separate deals.
All Brexiters seem to me to be spectacularly uninformed about everything.
Let's see how his sales are in a year or two.

as you seem to have so much time maybe you should read a bit of this http://uthscsa.edu/gme/documents/Circles.pdfOriginally posted by CretinWatcher View Post
CIRCLE of CONCERN and CIRCLE of INFLUENCE
Adapted from The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey,
This technique is good for separating out lower from higher priorities, and gaining
ownership for action.
A Circle of Concern encompasses the
wide range of concerns we have, such as
our health, our children, problems at work,
the amount of government borrowing, Brexit or
the threat of war.
A Circle of Influence encompasses
those concerns that we can do
something about. They are concerns that
we have some control over.
Stephen Covey defines proactive as
“being responsible for our own lives…..our
behaviour is a function of our decisions,
not our conditions.
Proactive people focus on issues within
their circle of influence. They work on
things they can do something about. The
nature of their energy in doing this is
positive, enlarging and magnifying. They
increase their Circle of Influence
Reactive people tend to neglect
those issues that are under their
control and influence. Their focus is
elsewhere and their Circle of
Influence shrinks.
In other words have you not got anything else better to do?

Dodgy, if you're a fan of a self-improvement book, that's a pretty damning indictment of its efficacy.Originally posted by DodgyAgent View Postas you seem to have so much time maybe you should read a bit of this http://uthscsa.edu/gme/documents/Circles.pdf
