UK to leave EU

[SofaKingHigh]

With all due respect, we'll just have to sit it out, it's interesting to see the frothy mouthed reactions from people who have no vested interest, especially considering their reactions seem so ill-informed.  

No vested interest?  You do realize that the UK doesn't exist in a vacuum, don't you?  My wife and I personally lost a few thousand dollars in our 401K the day after the Brexit, and we're in the U.S.  My parents also lost thousands, too.  You see, it's this kind of rhetoric coming from the Brexit crowd that makes me feel as if they did not think this through.

The global economy is everyone's vested interest, and I find it frightening that don't seem to grasp that.

We'll see the outcome in a few years, as I said before, my guess is that Britain shall be in a much stronger position than we were.

Well, pardon fucking me if your guess isn't very comforting to those of us that didn't have a say in the matter.  This was not a decision to make based on how you think it's going to turn out.

I reiterate, can you imagine the vitriol we Americans would get if we tanked the economy with a vote and all we had to offer was "my guess is we'll be stronger?"  Yet you Brexiters think everyone else should just shut their mouths about it and accept your vote as if it's going to have no effect on us at all.  Sorry to burst your bubble, but you don't live in a vacuum, and your choices have real consequences.  Try to think about that next time you step into the voting booth.

Rather than reading and responding to one or two posts, try going back through the thread where you can read my reasons for voting out.

You invested money in the stock markets, thus you can expect your money to either increase or decrease depending on a variety of different factors.

Just to be perfectly clear; if you think short term economics and you losing a paltry couple of thousand fucking dollars would have changed my vote, in what was the biggest referendum of my lifetime, you're sorely fucking mistaken pal.

Hope that helps.
