> I get my salary in CHF and I am quite happy as I transfer it regularly to EUR.

If I were doing so I would hate myself for not keeping as much as possible in CHF and just converting today for a 15% more EUR.

that's exact me, I worked in Switzerland for a bit less than a year and I kept an account there with what I earned.. I was planning to close my account as I've now moved but waited and today I woke up with this news. I just had a +15/20% on my money there :O

now I just need to decide if I should keep them or convert to EUR and close the account :D

Definitely wait atleast until the elections in Greece are over.

That's also a speculation. If decision to kick out Greece comes, Euro might just end up a bit stronger.
