Thank you for contributing to the success of the British economy, but I think you are going at the wrong moment. Post Brexit things will get even better hereComment

Britain gave me a safe place, opportunity, fairness, and hope for which I am grateful.
My personal values align with the values of this country (or what I learnt of them as I did pass the citizenship test).
The idea of the EU single market had appealed to me, so had voted remain.
But now that it seems to be heading for some turbulent times, I feel a duty to stand by this country.
Its just that the IT career has caused a lot of burnout. I wish I could afford to buy a small fully self-sustained farm with a hut somewhere away from cities.
And I don't know what I should go 'back' to either. As such, I am sure Britain will emerge stronger and better, but, next few years are likely to be uncertain.
(By safe, I do not mean I was an asylum seeker despite coming from a millitarised conflict area - I came here on a highly skilled visa and later naturalised. It has been a long journey)
We'll have a tough few years ahead of us but it'll be worth it in the long run!Old Greg - In search of acceptance since Mar 2007. Hoping each leap will be his last.Comment

I'd conversations few of my ex-colleagues and 95% of them want to return back to India at some stage.
