It’s not pretty, but the Telegraph put together a video on what it believes will happen in case of a Greek default, with the primary repercussion being, of course, the dreaded “capital controls” — which mainly affects people that actually have capital in the first place and don’t want government “control” of their cash.
Assorted other “bogeymen” are mentioned, too, like a parallel currency, nationalization o f banks etc.
