I do know several UK people here in Brno, no one of them would vote for the Brexit since they all benefit from the freedom the EU gives them.

You are the only one that I know that takes all the benefits and still agitates against it. That's like a cow that applies for the butchers union.

Why is that? Is it an age thing?
Some people see it as a referendum that is beyond their own personal well being.
It is not about what certain person benefits, it is about whole UK.
You can benefit from EU, but see greater good in brexit because you look past your own personal interest and see the interest of whole UK.
Not everyone is that selfish.
