Euro v GBP - should I convert now?
I have 10k in GBP, already I have lost about 2.5k GBP in exchange rate differences over the last month. I live in Ireland and use Euro.

Should I leave my 10k GBP in the UK or change it to Euro now?

I'd leave it - unless you need the cash now. When the Euro Zone starts to suffer this same recession the Euro will drop like a stone.

the exchange rate is awful atm but apparently its gonna get worse. personally id leave it

First, keep in mind that the Pound has been considered to be overvalued for quite some time. That being said, it was only a matter of time before the gap between the Euro and Pound would close up. Nobody really expected parity, but that's what we have now that the two trade nearly one-to-one.

Remembering that Gordon Brown has been rumored to want to get rid of the Pound for the Euro, it would probably be wise to wait things out a bit. Brown is smart enough to know that considering a currency change now would be perceived by many UK citizens as losing a significant amount of value on their savings and investments.

If the European Central Bank cuts rates, look for the price of the Euro against the Pound to fall. As that happens, Brown can make the case that if the UK were on the Euro the country would have been more insulated from the economic crisis, as the Eurozone is more diversified.

Basically, good chance the Pound will rise against the Euro over time, meaning hang on to your money. If you have to take cash from your reserve, make small withdrawals as needed.

Convert to the Euro.

Consider that the British market is stagnating and we have no form of effective export industry to help re-ignite our economy.

HOWEVER

In the EU, you have the German economy, which will weather this storm better then us i fear.

Convert! Convert!
