I'm sure he used to be a lot richer though, he's obviously spent it all on hookers and drugs.
I thought it all evaporated when Brexit happened. Or was that your fortune?

I'm sure he had many fun nights at least.
And the many days of self-loathing and desperation that followed.

Now here we are three years later and it's all making even less sense than it did then!

Please don't remind me, I could have gone on holiday for two months with that money.

Thanks Humch.
Yeah Brexit is a ridiculous and embarrassing shambles. Don't worry, there'll probably be another vote soon!

Really? I've heard a lot of noise suggesting that they'll never admit that a second vote is necessary or even valid. Still, if you think so, that's reassuring…

It's too late for my anyway, I sold my GBP ages ago.

Of course, since Brexit, the GBP has been worth less than the Irish Punt (which can still technically be exchanged for Euro at the Central Bank).

I miss the Irish Punt to be honest.

I think there's an argument to be made that we could've weathered the recession better if we controlled our own currency. But I don't know how well it would've worked really.

I still just remember being a kid and everything being more expensive since the euro was less valuable.

I think it was roughly €1.27 the other way around.

Really? I didn't realize the intra-European exchange rates were so dramatic. I just remember thinking that the euro coin must have been modelled on the franc coin.
