She's not old lol. She's like mid 30s or late 30s.
She's actually not so ignorant on this either, she voted for the wrong reasons though. She thought Remain would win and wanted it to be a close finish so EU would give us more powers. A shame.

Trust me, I've been there, I was extremely liberal at that age. But here I am now entering my 30s, I must say it is true when they say people get conservative as they age, and I expect the same generation of kids to undergo the same process and maturity too.
It's just the balance of life. You are a free spirit as a kid thus reflecting your liberal intentions, but as you mature into your late 20s and 30s, you do become conservative. That's just my two cents.

I've decided I'm not going to obsess over the exchange rates, it is what it is. Just hope it rises eventually in the coming weeks.

Hating gays, foreigners, the planet Earth and progress isn't maturity, it's backward thinking. Cause, sis, this is what conservatism is.
Also, you're entering your 30s and you're still on ATRL fighting over pop girls?

Andrea said we'd be able to obtain great deals trading wise, so I'm literally relying on her word.

The British pound could weaken further in the next six months even if it enjoys a temporary rebound, a top BlackRock Inc investment strategist said on Friday after Britain voted to exit the European Union.
"Sterling will weaken from here over the next six months, but in the next seven days it might have a rebound," said the strategist, Ewen Cameron Watt, as sterling made a record plunge.

It's very sad to see society so fragmented esp in terms of regions, generations and class. We need to pull together now to make it work - @zaynmalik
I actually agree with the guy.

Well, Congress votes against us all of the time. I just figured that in this case it really is what's best for the country.

Very charming. Claims they're not a bigot. I find it hard to believe.
