@Rotter, indeed. Lots of Eastern Europeans did the same thing. Talk of about 30% of some Polish clients/banks mortgages are in Swiss Francs ! Same thing in other countries.
A couple of FX brokers/small banks in a degree of trouble, West Hams shirt sponsor has declared bankruptcy.

mortgage in Swiss Francs as the rate was better a few years ago.
Oh yes...I know this feeling, my property in Greece was bought in this manner....although knowing sweet FA about Financial things I'm told I'm "hedged". Being a financial refugee I moved to the land of Cheese a few years back. Able to pay mortgage directly in CHF and popping over the Rhine and Holidays back in Greece just got a whole lot cheaper 🙂
I'll try and forget the part where my house in Greece is no longer worth the purchase price...ho humm.
Up until 2012 I had a decent percentage of my savings in a Swiss bank account (I'm 1/4 Swiss and and it was made for me by my Swiss aunt when I was born), but decided to close it when they started charging to have an account as I had just turned 18, Seems that it would have been worth a whole lot more now!!! 😥
you can get lost for a whole evening in one of those corners
Thats the plan
Not really interested in boarding that much anymore.... now I'm old and not hill fit.... It just upsets me that I can't hoon it from the top to the bottom, hitting all the little fun bits on the way, without stopping.... 500 yards stop give the legs a rest, 500 years stop give the legs a rest... rubbish.
