i see Theresa Mayhem has opened her mouth again and the pound has once again collapsed.
I expect it to go lower , There's money to be made here.
I see that second class celebs ( Paul McKenna ) are returning from America because they love the country so much , have a book to sell and get a lot more pounds for their dollar.

Think you have this the wrong way round, you are better off earning your money in dollars not pounds. It is our currency that has weakened.

Herd, you have said all along that we are not leaving the EU. I think you will be proven wrong tomorrow.
No Il be proven wrong if and when it happens , and we are no where near it .

Actually if you cashed $100 on June 1st prior to referendum you would have got £ 69.37 as £1 equalled $ 1.44.
If you did the same today you would recieve £ 81.21 as £1 equals $ 1.22.
These rates from

So my premise that he is returning to get more for his dollars stands.

Yes and you are better off if you are earning your money in dollars not pounds. That's why tourists are flocking to London and it's more expensive for us to go abroad. Suggesting you are better off earning £ versus $ is wrong.
I think you are a tad confused.

Not confused ,possibly not explaining myself .
What I am saying is that he has been living in the states for some time but just like the tourist s that are getting more for their money now in the U,K he has decided to return because his portfolio is now worth a lot more here than it is over there.

My salary is in pounds but my compnaies income is in $$$$'s so I'm happy as a pig in shit right now as I and the company sold the pound short for a year back in June .
Theresa May and her buddies are planning a doomsday brexit proposal and hope the short trerm market effect shocks general public into abandoning Brexit !
She will then do a neat u turn and save Britain by staying in !
By which time there will be no more National Health ssytem as it will have all been sold and leased back with PFI partnerships which is what is killing the sysytem allready . . . .. . nice !

just in time for her to get re elected in 2020....
this is what I suspect too, but it is a risky strategy.
whatever happens we are in for an increasingly bumpy ride over the next couple of years.

Ok, so he brings his accrued wealth and benefits from having enhanced spending power on his dollars UNTIL he starts earning in pounds, eventually he is in the same boat as the rest of us with a diminishing standard of living.
