Thank you for this update. His mother and step father wouldn't speak to this with us and we never pushed it.We live in a different state than theirs and didn't see them that much. Thank you, society.

I thought he served or is serving. We didn't approach the subject with his mom and Claude as it was a very sensitive topic and since they passed, I really can't find out for ceetain. But my point is that they told me it wasn't a good investment. I held off selling back then 'cause I felt 'NO WAY SHOULD THE IQD STAY THIS VALUE'. I still feel the same, but disappointment after disappointmet after disappointment has me wondering if this really IS too good to be true. Who knows? Certainly not the gurus.

I understand what you mean about the money spent idea, but then, if you spend all night at a casino figuring to (at most) losing $1000 and you come home with $600. You lost $400, but you're satisfied that you didn't lose the whole $1000, You had fun and didn't lose it all. You had a good time and still came home with a few bucks. You didn't stay 'til the whole thousand was gone. If this is what happens to me with my Dinar...... I had some fun, and still came home with SOME money. Do you see the connection? We're all different. Some hang on to the end and some say 'enough'. No one can say who was right or who was wrong until the very end......... WHENEVER that may be. I will have had my 'fun' when I leave and like walking away from the crap table you always wish the ones staying GOOD LUCK..... So,at the end of the year when I walk away I will say to all the good friends here at Dinar Vets..... GOOD LUCK ! I still have 6 months left for that "BIG ROLL" to come in. After all. WE ARE CLOSER THAN WE HAVE EVER BEEN BEFORE. Yendor

Wouldn't want to put them through what we have all been through. Do you remember Ty Rahmem who went to prison for his dealings with the IQD? He made a ton of money selling Dinars. Well, my wife was friends with his mother and step father and they told us about 8 or 9 years ago (just before he went to prison) that it was "not a good investment".That's just about like coming from the horses mouth. In spite of my feeling like it was too good to be true and I only had just I few million, I held on to it ...... HOPING ! After all, it DID make sense that it would happen "any time, now". Now, 9 years later, gonna' hang 'em up. Our friends have passed on and I have no idea as to what happened to Ty. So, Hspotman, at the end of the year you can pick up a few more Dinars if you're so inclined. lol

Too old for minor league 'fun'. Comes a time to hang 'em up, doncha' rhink?

Not easy to just "put it away" and wait when you're 86. I put the end of this year as my 'walk away' deadline. Then I will take what I can get and chalk it up to "well, I gave it a shot" and wish all other DVers better luck. I hesitated getting on this ride with it being too good to be true feelings...... BUT IF (and it was a BIG if) it happened, I would buy a little to be part of this windfall. 17 years later, bottom of the ninth, down 2-1 and two outs with nobody on base with two strikes on me you're telling me to BUNT ??????

6-28-2025 Walkingstick [Iraqi Bank friend Aki update] AKI: Three meetings. The last meeting lasted two hours. My boss tells me, 'I need you back at the bank [In Dearborn Michigan] this Monday because we are waiting on the new exchange rate.' I have to go back because we're waiting for the new rate. WALKINGSTICK: That's the only thing they're waiting for. They already got all the banking software in place, ATM machines, the bank structures, all the bank regulations are set. Yah! Yah! Yah ! Sure you've got an Iraqi banking friend and sure his boss told him he needs him back at the bank on Monday.... Probably because the pencils need sharpening. But, WE ARE CLOSER THAN WE HAVE EVER BEEN BEFORE. {again}

No need to be sorry......For thhe past decade or more, three to five times a week we get news of favorable occurances to increase the rate and nothing ever happens. It's no wonder many Dinarians say "enough".

6-24-2025 Militia Man They're going to go international and they're going to integrate into the international financial system. That's what's going to jump-start this whole thing...Is Iraq ready? Iraq is ready. We're waiting for the integration. I am SURE Iraq is ready. They've been ready since forever ago..... Just like us ! GO RV (As Weegie likes to say)

JUNETEENTH

Still nothing new !!! SOS

6-15-25 Frank26 There's no reason for them to have 17 trillion reserves for their currency and have a value of 1310. That statement which is so illogical is what allows me to close my eyes and sleep at night. I smile because what I can see is not an optical illusion. It is a reality that's happening right before our eyes. Funny, nothing seems to be happening here at my end. Maybe SOON, huh ?

Like SOON ?????

That dreaded "SOON" word!

Whatever the tax is, I will GLADLY pay as long as it's north of $ 0.10 Just get this done and over with!
