Title: Do i cash out now or wait???
Post by: Amatay on July 10, 2008, 02:24:44 AM
I've got almost $20k floating around in cyberspace atm and need to cash alot of this out. However, someone suggested to me that it might be best to wait a month or two because the dollar will be worth more in £ or summat in the next few months? Is this true? Also do some sites offer better exxchange rates etc than others? Thankyou please.

Historically the dollar strengthens after Presidential elections...so if you can wait until November you should get a much better return, especially if Barack Obama wins.

Relative to $20k it might! But if it doesn't make much of a difference to you, feel free to send 5% of $20k to my Stars account...

$20k into £ at 1.99 (todays rate) = £10,050

$20k into £ at 1.94 (lowest this year) = £10,309

$20k into £ at 2.03 (highest this year) = £9,852


So the dollar has fluctuated by a max of $0.09 to the £ which only gives a difference of £457

In reality, the $ has only fluctuated by $0.04 in the last 4 months ($1.94 to $1.98) which is a difference of £208.


This assumes he wishes to cash out all $20k (which I doubt) . So if he only wishes to cash out half, then the max swing on $10k this year has been £229 and in the last 4 months only £104.

Not exactly relative imo.

It could even be counter weighed by any interest gained once in the bank

You know me, I back up my statements - I do not just post random shit for the hell of it - well not often.

As for it being the most sensible and well presented post I have ever made? Nah, the one that got deleted a few days ago was better ;)
