How has Brexit actually affected you so far?

I actually feel a little weepy.
Fighting it back but it still feels like it's right to shed an actual tear.

Some people will die via poverty that would not otherwise have... All thanks to some ballot papers.
 
Facebook's predicted a new post-Brexit direction for me already.

Financially it hasn't hurt much (it'll create opportunity it some businesses) but I think the country has just taken a massive step to the right. Lexit is cobblers and the exit from the EU will be framed by the right. Farage has just been given a mandate and I think we are going to become Little England wankers in the eyes of the non-racist world.

Well done exiteers!

I meant personally, as per thread title. The kind of work I do will be in greater demand and I haven't really taken a whack on a share portfolio like others here.

I've already applied for my Irish passport so no worries with travel stuff etc, but I predict that all the lefties that voted to exit are going to rue that decision in the not too distant future.

I expected it to be worse. It was at 1.24 in April - the supposedly improved hopes of Remain is part of what sent it back up.

Actually the Euro rate don't make much difference
$ now at 1.388 - opened at 1.50
Everything priced in US$ - ie oil etc, now nearly 7% more expensive
 
I worry about myself. I am from Lithuania living with English husband. How is my future is not clear. I think I have to had some working viza or something similar.

For what it's worth, I don't think anything is going to happen in the short term. In the long term, as far as I understand it, it depends if we sign up to the single market or not. If we do then we will have to allow freedom of movement for citizens.

Some one will probably come along now and tell me I am completely wrong!
