    EverBank

    NOTE: This is NOT a Bank Story I apologize if this topic is in the wrong place. And this post is to ask my fellow DV members to tell me their thoughts or info regarding this if they have it. I have heard several rumors regarding USA banks where one could open an account using Dinar. Obviously if the rate did come in low and they gave us a deadlne with which we had to excange the large denominations, having an account that holds digital dinar could prove beneficial. I also understand that income tax liability is not generated until you exchange it into our own currency. I could be wrong about that so don't take my word for it. I am not well versed in tax info. Ask your tax professional. I heard of one such bank in North Carolina. I also heard of one in Florida named EverBank https://www.everbank.com/default.aspx . As I am in Florida, this one perked my interest. Looking through their site I found a that they have money market accounts in their foreign currency dept. I understand that you can open the account up in a foreign currency and it stays in that currency untill you take it out. It woudl then be your choice to exchange it at the current rate or keep in the same currency. Although I saw no IQD account info, I was told that they will open one for a customer. My thoughts are if they don't now, after a revaluation it could be likely that they would. They also advertise that their foreign currency accounts are FDIC insured. Of course you'd have to make sure that you had the proper account with the proper insurance. I have not been one to call the banks or the asset professionals that many have encouraged us to do because I don't have any assets except a few pretty colored pieces of paper with some arabic writing on them. Not very valuable at the moment but I am in hopes of that changing in the near future. But, do you think I should ask them about holding IQD in their foreign currency accounts? Does anyone have any insight or info on this?
  3. Anvdadisgi (remembering) I am a registered member of the Cherokee Tribe of North East Alabama. My Tribe has been recognized by the State of Alabama for a very long time but the US Government does not recognize us. I believe that is due to the fact that when the US Govt rounded up the Cherokee in North Alabama to send them out West on the "Trail of Tears"My direct ancestors and many others hid out and were not captured for the Trail of Tears. Delta22, just the facts about the "Trail of Tears" alone qualify for "genocide". And DinarDana "Entire nations were wiped out and decimated, clearly this is genocide." I have several points I'd like to share. We have NO CASINO and have to scrape together any extra funds we can in order to sponsor just a few of our youth for College. Like the Houma Nation, we too have been trying to gain Federal recognition. AND...NOT for handouts! It would be nice to be a recognized Nation. One with their own rights. 1. AntiThisAntiThat you stated the following: Lot of mis-information here about the native americans. They are much better off than most of us, and own nearly every gambling casino around, that takes in mega billions yearly. Also the Native American indians did not have a Covenant Agreement on North America with the Creator, so they don't have any legitimate claim to the land. First of all, many Native American Indians are living below poverty. Several Tribes are not Federally recognized and do not qualify for the "Casino" benefit. If you checked out some of the poorer Tribal reservations you would be shocked. Secondly, you state that we have no covenant with the Creator. You could not be more wrong. To add to info from EagleEye "the Wappani were a Christian tribe converted during the Moravian Revival" The Old Cherokee Tribe was much more in tune with the Creator than you could ever imagine. Here is a site that describes the similarities in the Old Cherokee Tribe and the Judeo/Christian faith that you apparently refer to. http://www.veldantia...n/syllabus.html I realize that this info is strange to many but when did "strange" become a definition of false? The reason for the similarities is very obvious. They were in tune with the Creator. By the way, I know of many covenants in the Bible. Which one is it that specifically talks about North America? I remember one in particular called The new covenant where was said "I will put my law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be my people." I contend that this was more true of the Native American as a people than the rest of the North American population. Degadageyusesdi (Lets all be good to one another)    
  4. I agree Mr T. And I think that is the proper use for the -1. I realize lots of folks use the -1 just because they disagree with someones post. But everyone has an opinion. People shouldn't be poorly rated for their opinion. But, when you get mean and attack someone, or otherwise behave poorly, -1 it is! BTW +1 for you.
  5. That is soooo funny. I do something like that. I interupt them to tell them to come over and bring me a beer.. I can't leave the house 'cause of this ankle bracelet they have on me. And they won't let me get any beer.. So, bring me a beer and we'll talk about anything you want to talk about when you get here. Any beer will do.. I thought my solution was funny but it pales greatly in the face of this one. Of course, with my solution you don't have to be as good of an actor. Just loud and thirsty. I may try that one after I practice the lines a bit!!
  6. Many "Occupy Wall Street" protesters arrested in New York City "occupy" more luxurious homes than their "99 percent" rhetoric might suggest, a Daily Caller investigation has found. For each of the 984 Occupy Wall Street protesters arrested in New York City between September 18 and October 15, police collected and filed an information sheet recording the arrestee’s name, age, sex, criminal charge, home address and — in most cases — race. The Daily Caller has obtained all of this information from a source in the New York City government. Among addresses for which information is available, single-family homes listed on those police intake forms have a median value of $305,000 — a far higher number than the $185,400 median value of owner-occupied housing units in the United States. Some of the homes where "Occupy" arrestees reside, viewed through Google Maps and the Multiple Listing Service real estate database, are the definition of opulence. Using county assessors and online resources such as Zillow.com, TheDC estimated property values and rents for 87 percent of the homes and 59 percent of the apartments listed in the arrest records. Even in the nation’s currently depressed housing market, at least 95 of the protesters’ residences are worth approximately $500,000 or more. http://news.yahoo.com/nyc-arrest-records-many-occupy-wall-street-protesters-045625415.html Interesting bit of info.
  7. I read an interesting story the other day that claimed their were a lot of women converting to Islam. It seems that these women tended to prefer that men held more control over their lives. They said that they felt more secure. Now...that is sad...A femine movement seemingly designed to create independance for all women has resulted in causing many to abandon that liberty I looked but cant find that article.. but there are several if you google western women converting to islam for security here is one http://standpointmag.co.uk/features-may-10-why-do-western-women-convert-julie-bindel-islam-female-conversion
  8. An interesting piece in the Yahoo news. It is all relative I suppose. Attention, Protestors: You're Probably Part of the 1% In America, the top 1% earn more than $380,000 per year. We are, however, among the richest nations on Earth. How much do you need to earn to be among the top 1% of the world? $34,000. http://news.yahoo.com/attention-protestors-youre-probably-part-1-153806044.html I never considered myself a part of the 1% before.

    My WF Story

    Thanks Brink for bringing this story to us.
  11. I suppose the "facts" depend on who is writting them . Consider these facts: • Jobs: The president has presided over the loss of 2.2 million jobs. • Debt: Obama has increased taxpayer debt by $4.2 trillion. Every day, the nation runs a deficit of $4.2 billion. • Foreclosure and Bankruptcy: 2.4 million homes have been foreclosed on. Homeowners and businesses have declared 4 million bankruptcies. • The Stimulus: Obama promised that his $787 billion stimulus would save or create 3.5 million jobs by the end of 2010. He came up 7.3 million jobs short of his goal, according to the Heritage Foundation. • Healthcare: Obamacare did not reduce healthcare costs as promised and is in fact responsible for increasing costs in 2011. Health insurance premiums are up 13 percent. • Poverty: Nearly 3 million more Americans live in poverty than did before Obama took office. Read more on Newsmax.com: Obama’s 1,000-day Report Card: ‘Gridlock, Dysfunction' and I really like this comment: Although polls show Obama remains well-liked on a personal level, he recently conceded himself that Americans are not better off than they were four years ago, then proceeded to imply that Congress and President George W. Bush bear the blame. and about unemployment numbers: Real-estate mogul and New York Daily News owner Mortimer Zuckerman, a longtime supporter of the Democratic Party, says President Obama doesn’t seem to care for people – and the result is an economy that is on the brink of a "potentially catastrophic" collapse. In fact, the nation may well be down that road with an unemployment rate Zuckerman estimates could be 20 percent. Read more on Newsmax.com: Zuckerman: Real Unemployment 20 Percent I realize that these quotes are taken from a one sided publication but the facts are something to consider.
  12. I dont think used food will come into play. More likely used clothes, appliances, electronics, cars etc.....
