French Survivors?
Escapees. Many are long-term cruisers, I’m sure, but many are not. They are getting out while they can, with some assets. It’s been a common dodge for decades. Sink every Rand or Franc or Euro into a yacht, then sail away and don’t return. It’s a way to avoid currency export controls, and possible hyperinflation or devaluation that may be next. Turn the digital money into a real asset, then sail away on it.
