Why do I get a 2008 global collapse vibe from this Brexit mess?

Esp. if it's a no-deal Brexit. Someone talk me down. Or, should I load up on beans and bullets?

1. Tell your broker to be ready to move you into a safe haven before the vote.

Brexit is going to be a global mess.

2. I fully believe it will have global implications

I don't think it will 2008 level, because while the UK will be destroyed...there will be many winners.

I put myself into safer than normal investments the minute Trump won.
I suspected he would severely damage the economy.
I missed some upside...but I hope I will also miss what I expect to be a bigger downside.

3. A 'no deal' Brexit will cause havoc

in Great Britain and Europe. The EU *may* be able to contain it, but only if they *really* want to be the adults in the room. If I were planning on visiting friends, I’d suggest that they come he, instead.

4. Bring the beans, leave the bullets.

The mere thought of shooting one's way out of societal chaos is a fantasy.

Take the beans, join with people that have other foodstuffs and start a soup kitchen.
