I've been hyperventilating for the past 6 weeks.

& I have no idea why. This is capitalism, there are growth & contraction cycles.

If you are that worried, move.

Hey. Its not as bad for you as it is for Brits.
Pretty easy for you to go to Madrid or elsewhere should the shit truly hit the fan.
And look. We are still alive. Sort of.

But that would hurt him financially :hmm:

Political risk affects financial returns.

I work for a Barcelona company, but they have a branch in Madrid - branch that they have been beefing up "just in case". If shit truly hits the fan the plan is to move there. But that doesn't change the fact that I would be leaving all my friends and family because of idiotic politics.

Politics is like natural disasters.  They just happen, and there is nothing you can do about it.  If an earthquake destroys your town, you need to think if you'll stay or move.  Politics is the same.

I know it impacts you so much more than it does the rest of us, but this whole independence thingy has been a big letdown.

Tiananmen it ain't.  Very disappointing

I'm still here & I grew up in between 2 failed Independence referendum. Montreal shrunk, Toronto grew. There is still economic activity.

Yeah. All those companies/rats that left Montreal never returned though. Same thing will happen in Catalogne.

I guesstimate we're collectively poorer by 15%, 20 years later. So it's not the end of the world.

Some things matter more than the mighty fucking dollar.

companies leaving are rats, but provinces leaving are a -ok? Hypocrite :P

I'm a BoM user, proudly headquarter in Toronto :D
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.
