I'm currently living in Poland, but my money is mostly in GBP. I'm getting more and more concerned about the fact that Sterling has taken a hit against the Euro and particularly against the Zloty, although the Zloty seems to be very strong in general at the moment. If I'd understood more in July when I got this money I might have put 30% or so in Gold. Now I reckon that game may be done, but I want to protect the value of my money against Gordon Brown. I was thinking about changing it into Euro's where I know I'll get a poor rate, but I have a horrible feeling the pound is going to carry on downards.

If I was staying in the UK I would be less worried, but as time goes by I'm feeling less and less inclined to go back and therefore want to retain my financial position in European terms, not UK terms.

Does anyone have any advice on currency ? Perhaps even swiss francs might be an idea ?

Since nobody else is bothering to reply to you, I'll give you some advice: SEARCH THE FORUMS! if you want to invest in pieces of paper (i.e. fiat currency like GBP, EURO etc) then there are loads of threads in the 'Cash ISA's and Savings Accounts' forum for you to review. If you want the ultimate hedge, then look through the 'Metals' forum for the pro's and con's of investing / owning the shiny yellow stuff.
