Someone I know sold assets to their company, went from self employed to employed because his old company was going to lose out due to most of their clients being in the EU and already had begun pulling out.
 
Well I am mulling over learning Finnish so that I can get dual-nationality and remain as an EU member.

Apart from that not much. The poor will get hit the hardest, the Tories will see to that and luckily my myself and my immediate family can ride out whatever may happen.
 
I couldn't agree more. Nothing truly major will change - people need to stop believing goddamn newspapers.

Nothing major will change? Why are we bothering then? What's all the fuss about (I'm not on about the fuss in the papers)? Why are we shelling out billions for nothing major?
 
A bit of a doomsday op, are we going to be plunged into darkness or something, I shall just carry on a normal.
I'm ever the optimist and hope that everything will be fine, I don't expect to loose my job or anything - but it's that "what if" in my mind that made me post this topic.

Say for example the GBP lost a third of its value over the next 5 years? Seemed incredibly remote chance of that before the vote, and even now I doubt things will go that badly - but the odds of it happening can only be increasing for the moment at least. I just want to minimise the risks to my household - nothing more.

If the GBP falls enough - everyone will feel it.

I was made redundant twice before all this brexit carry on, this is water off a ducks back to myself, been there done that got the tshirt :):)
 
other than not investing in the uk, not much I can do. Just sit back and wait for the recision and deregulation of worker/human/animal rights and watch this country slip down the various leader boards.
don't need to put your pension in low risk holdings, just not in uk holdings low risk or otherwise.
it'll be a UK only recession, not a world one like 2008.
