Need some advice lads and ladies. Most of us save our money then send it back to our home countries frequently to our bank accounts there. I have been sending my riyals back to UK usually when the pound is weak, but what is the best currency to save the money in? I'm not sure if I will go back to UK in future so I don't want to save all my money in UK accounts. What about offshore accounts?

What currency is best to save your hard-earned riyals in? E.g. I'm sending my money back to UK these days because the pound is weak (was nearly 拢1 = SR8 riyals before recession, now below SR6! It feels like a big bonus). The Americans don't have this privilege because the $ is set at SR3.75.

I guess I'm looking for someone experienced in FOREX.
