Very nice. Now let’s see how rich it’s made you, OP.

The best part of this meme is that Brexit had literally nothing to do with it whatsoever, the guy just decided to expand his markets to other places, which he could have done either way, and well might have. He expanded his international enterprise across a wider part of the world, and you mean to tell me he started making more money? That’s pretty amazing! Why isn’t everyone doing this?

Huh? If Brexit influenced his decision making, even from an emotional or perceived risk standpoint, it had something to do with it. Even if the market forces or conditions materially would have had no impact on his business.

So if Brexit even simply stoked his interest in foreign expansion, it counts.

So if Brexit even simply stoked his interest in foreign expansion, it counts.

That is not what he said. Through lack of one foreign market (EU) he was forced to seek other foreign markets. For all we know without brexit the company would be doing even better solely by operating in the EU, and that all the while nothing would have prevented him from operating in those other foreign markets besides the EU.

It is a coping quote, nothing else.
