Good luck Scotland if they do choose to break free and then manage to region the EU I will seriously be considering moving north of the boarder and applying for citizenship
Well jolly good luck with that.
Sadly, you will have missed the rather better days of the Scottish economy, receiving as it does, £1500 more per head than England at present. Plus, you will be dealing with your own budget deficit ( £ 15bn + ) and so you will be paying higher taxes and seeing plenty of spending cuts, to try and cover the shortfall. There will be less money to spend on schools and health and prices will be higher in the shops, as you only do 15% of your trade with the EU. You will have to re-negotiate the other 85% with UK ( 65% ) and the rest of the world ( 20% )
So good luck with Crashing Out of the UK and enjoying all the benefits of a gloriously, free and independent Scotland, away from the horrible shackles of your benefactor and embracing European Nationalism and all the benefits of that. Well, for as long as it lasts in its current format until the Eurofall Avalanche.
