answer the question directly,
how can Scotland afford to leave the UK its biggest trading partner and then join the EU
Instead of being clever like I never heard of ERM
Scotland ran a deficit seven times higher than the UK as a whole last year, despite again cutting its overspend on public services.
showed there was a record gap of nearly £2,000 per person between how much was spent on public services and debt repayment, and total tax revenues for 2018-19.
Scotland’s notional deficit stood at £12.6bn or 7% of GDP, including North Sea oil revenues, compared with the UK’s total £23.5bn deficit, which includes Scotland’s figure. The UK deficit is equivalent to 1.1% of its GDP.

Disliked{quote} I don't understand the question, scholar. Hence why I asked. I live in Luxembourg (cue your overreaction) and most non-native English speakers conduct their communications in a more legible manner than you. I have already explained to you about 5 times why you are misunderstanding the "deficit". You've not read any of my posts, responding each time with half-arsed illiterate garbage. You accuse of me saying things I never said then you wonder why I am being a "tit". I am left-wing but I can chat with Thatcherites/etc. But they need to understand...Ignored
