  1. Thank you hawk-eye-view - I live my life by the Promises of God in the scripture, so here we go.... First and foremost, I got into this venture believing that it was an opportunity for a windfall from God to provide funds to help the less fortunate world wide, as a ministry on benevolence, and to support various ministries that serve this purpose. My IQD are sitting in a special Roth IRA. When I first heard about the dinar a scripture immediately came to my mind. It was Isa 45:3 "I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who summons you by name." I felt led to make a significant investment. The Word tells us to decree a thing , then to declare a thing and it will be established. (A side note: James 4 says: "You do not have because you do not ask God. When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.") As a result I feel that The LORD knows the motives my heart - not that we can't use some of the increase, because HE is GOD Who desires to blesses us. In John 14:13-14 Jesus said: "Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it." And again in John 15:16 he says: "whatever you ask of the Father in My Name He may give to you." And again in John 16:23-24 Jesus says: 'if you ask the Father for anything in My name, He will give it to you. Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be made full.' Mark 11:23-24 "Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it will be granted him. Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you." 1 John 5:14-15 "This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him." In Matt 18:19-20 Jesus said: “Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven. For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst.” Much more could be said. I'm definitely NOT "a name it and claim it" person, but I believe that The Lord led me to this investment for a reason, and I don't doubt in my heart - so, I'm trusting and waiting - the timing is all HIS. I put my faith in HIM alone, and in HIS promises. If I missed it, the fault lays with me. But I believe he has a plan. I walk by faith and not by sight (2 Cor 5:7). In Rom 14: it says "Everything that does not come from faith is sin." My life walk is a faith walk in my Savior, Jesus Christ. Col 3:3 says "my life is hidden in Christ, in God." - So there you are as to my position. It's my story and I'm sticking to it - and I'm in agreement with hawk-eye-view's statement. I hope there are many in agreement with us in this (Matt 18 above). Not with selfish motives, but to be blessed so that we might become a blessing. Think about it, and pray about it...! RON

  3. Several weeks ago I felt the corona virus had the possibility to hurt the stock market. I also said I didn’t like the market which was at all time highs. I stated that if the virus starts spreading the market would probably sell off rather quick, like a falling knife. Well, it’s been a rough week for the markets and yes, markets don’t go straight up forever. The Corona virus is now in 40 countries and is a very dangerous situation. For this reason I am treading very carefully and don’t care to buy the dips or try to catch a falling knife. This sell off feels more like 2011, 2008, or after 9/11/01. I’ve talked to a number of my friends who are very smart traders and investors and many of them are saying the same thing, “ how do we invest in a market when we don’t know what this corona virus is going to do if it gets going in the USA?” The statement I heard several times was, “This will be a great buying opportunity but I’m not going to be the the first one in”. I agree. This will be a great opportunity and I’m getting my buy list together. In the short term I’m expecting a short relief rally ( sucker rally) and then a resumption of the new trend, which is down. We are now in a corrective market. If you have your retirement money in a 401k and are getting worried you need to understand markets correct every now and then. We are only a week away from all time highs and only 8% off those all time highs on the S&P. Several weeks ago I suggested that you shouldn’t get too excited until the Price of the S&P breaks the 50 daily moving average, the 100 dma, and then the 200 dma. If you look at the chart below you can see how spooked the market is now. We have broken the 50 and 100 dma but not the 200. We also have not had the 50 ma cross down over the 100 or the 200 ma. So try not to worry too much but watch the news and watch this chart for those cross overs. If you get too concerned call your financial person. I’m sure they can give you more pertinent information and guidance. If you look look at the chart below you will see the RSI at the top of the chart is getting into oversold territory and the MACD is getting there as well. The major indices have been down 5 days in a row. Hopefully after President Trump’s Press Conference today the markets calm down some and we get that relief rally. For those that are interested, a few companies that are fast tracking vaccines and drugs to fight this virus are, MRNA, GILD, REGN, and APT which makes face masks. All are up considerably the last few days so don’t go buying em tomorrow. Wait for a pull back. I am giving the board this information based on my years of trading experience. I am not your financial advisor and as always do your own due diligence. I am writing this post to hopefully alleviate your concerns and what to look for in the coming days, weeks, and months. I am Day Trading what I’m seeing but not starting any new Swing trades or Investment Longs at this time. Good luck and be patient in your trading /Investing.

  6. Thank you Adam. This chart was taken at noon et. You can see we held the 200 dma, which was big. At 1:20 et you can definitely see the S&P 500 held the 200 dma. I’m not sure it holds but it’s a good sign for a relief rally. I’m not buying the dips, not yet, but will continue to trade what I see. Some stocks you may know that are bucking the trend are ZM, SQ, NFLX, ESTC, ETSY, MMM, and many more. I will continue to post what I’m seeing but just know we are in for a very volatile time as we struggle through the Corona Virus. Hopefully our Government can keep the virus in check in our country as our International Hospitality and Technology Companies Deal with loss of business and chain supply disruptions.

  7. HCR, I believe this is smoke and mirrors to cover up the sterilization process started by the CBI. Sterilization is a form of monetary action in which a central bank seeks to limit the effect of inflows and outflows of capital on the money supply. Sterilization most frequently involves the purchase or sale of financial assets by a central bank, and is designed to offset the effect of foreign exchange intervention.

  9. 2-27-2020 Intel Guru Frank ...we have a cloud of smoke from the excitement from the explosion - IMO, of them actually pushing a button...it's not dark humor. It's not science fiction. It's not a comedy. It's all great. The Prime Minister twice talked to the citizens of Iraq about the exchange rate for the improvement of their economy. Twice he's talked about the exchange rate. He also talked to them about the vote. And yeah they're gonna have the vote and he gave the reason why there won't be one today [Wednesday]. It looks like Thursday. Tomorrow (that's today - Thursday) hopefully they get it all done. That's really not important. It's really not. IMO the government has been functioning with no problem for quite a while... 2-27-2020 Newshound Guru Pimpy ...Dr. Shabibi wrote an article complaining that the monetary policies that the CBI is under from the IMF and World Bank helps keep inflation low, but it really chokes off their ability to grow economically. He's the one pushing for a rate change...(and for those of you who are relatively new, he was a former Governor of the CBI who was the author of the original plan to delete the zeroes and increase the value of the IQD). 2-27-2020 Newshound Guru MilitiaMan Article: "The central bank clarifies the administrative framework for financing imports and the mechanism for selling foreign currencies" Quote: "It also clarifies the process of collecting and sterilizing the local currency considering that this bank represents the monetary authority in Iraq." The act of sterilizing the local currency is a practice by major global players. It appears the CBI is preparing or is now prepared to defend their currency in world markets.. Something that the CBI has now been told to the world that they are now obliged to play by the IMF Rules.. imo.. Very good indeed imo. [Investopedia: Sterilization is a form of monetary action in which a central bank seeks to limit the effect of inflows and outflows of capital on the money supply.

  10. This virus would justify needing a seated government. The Kurds flew in last night and stayed overnight in Baghdad so they could make a strong presence in today’s vote. I’ll bet this time they will vote. This gives the CBI ten days to take in Dinar from closed businesses. There is a big plan here.

  12. Thanks davis411 - it's perfectly okay to enjoy the blessing..! God wants us to be blessed and use some of it. He just desires that some of it flows through us to others. As the scriptures indicate - He wants to bless us so that we might become a blessing. We become a conduit of His Grace in its many forms....Ron

  13. I forgot to clarify why this scripture was so significant: Isa 45:3 "I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who summons you by name." I felt led to make a significant investment. This scripture spoke to me about 40 years ago when I gave my life to Christ, but I had no reference to it at the time, other than God calling me by name. But when the dinar was mentioned to me by another pastor, I immediately felt that the "hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places" was in reference to OIL...and the scripture made more sense to me.

  14. Goooood Wednesday to you all! I'm actually starting this on Tuesday, pretty sure I won't have time to finish it in the morning, so it will probably be afternoon by the time this is posted. The reason is simple - while we don't have an RV announcement (your phone would have blown up by now!), we DO have a lot of interesting and promising items on the table. Up front and center is the new Prime Minister Allawi. As a short recap: Late last year, the former PM resigned. There were several failed attempts to replace the PM. A PM is necessary. Mohammed Allawi was instated as a possibly temporary PM. That "temporary" bit doesn't look so temporary now, because: Allawi is acting in a permanent manner. Namely: I posted some comments at that link above and I think it bears repeating here: "I love everything about how he is doing his job. He's getting work done and not allowing people to try to influence the process. This is definitely the most efficient and possibly the ONLY way to be successful at the job - make decisions, tell people what was done, and move forward." It's not surprising that he hasn't got the job done overnight. Taking the helm in this situation is a BIG job, and in my opinion Allawi is doing a stellar job and getting things done incredibly fast. to @Mary B for bringing this article: That first post should tell us how complex his job is, but again - refer to the earlier quoted post above, and my opinion is the same - Allawi is doing an impressive job. Other items of note: DJIA is down since my last update - as is Gold, OIL, and pretty much everything else. Presumably, this is related to the coronavirus epidemic... which makes one wonder, is this a government CIA cartel illuminati plot to control the financial market, is it the end of times and those of us that are prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse are the only ones who will survive... or is it another bird flu / SARS / mad cow disease scare that is going to blow over in short order? Bird flu lasted a year, SARS maybe two years. I'm guessing the coronavirus epidemic will be about the same, but there's always the chance I'll be thankful I have my stockpile of metals, bullets, and MREs. That's why we have those things, of course! Bitcoin is also slightly down since my last update, but going back only 3 months shows it's really up about 15%. Nobody really has a clue how or when any crypto will go up or down - that science is even murkier than the Iraqi Dinar - but don't forget about the halvening coming up in 75 days! The last halvings have resulted in massive spikes - about 10X, both times according to this article. Personally, I'm HODLing! Don't forget to get in the Powerball Pool! Last (but not least), GOOOOO RRRRVVVVVVV!!!!!! - Adam

  15. A cowboy, who just moved to Montana from Texas, walks into a bar and orders three mugs of Bud. He sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of each one in turn. When he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more. The bartender approaches and tells the cowboy, "You know, a mug goes flat after I draw it. It would taste better if you bought one at a time." The cowboy replies, "Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is in Arizona, the other is in Colorado. When we all left our home in Texas, we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together. So I'm drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself." The bartender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there. The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar, and always drinks the same way. He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn. One day, he comes in and only orders two mugs. All the regulars take notice and fall silent. When he comes back to the bar for the second round, the bartender says, "I don't want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my condolences on your loss." The cowboy looks quite puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns in his eyes and he laughs. "Oh, no, everybody's just fine," he explains. "It's just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking." “It hasn't affected my brothers though." Karsten

  19. https://www.amf.org.ae/en/content/arab-monetary-fund-announces-launch-buna-payment-platform-platform-serves-enhance...... THE ARAB MONETARY FUND ANNOUNCES THE LAUNCH OF THE BUNA PAYMENT PLATFORM: THE PLATFORM SERVES TO ENHANCE OPPORTUNITIES FOR FINANCIAL INTEGRATION AND TO SUPPORT ECONOMIC AND INVESTMENT TIES WITH THE TRADING PARTNERS OF ARAB COUNTRIES 23-02-2020 23 February 2020 The Arab Monetary Fund (AMF) is pleased to announce the launch of Buna, the regional payment platform, as a culmination of months of planning and collaboration with global and regional stakeholders. "Buna" which is a multi-currency payment platform, provides clearing and settlement services, in Arab and international currencies that meet the eligibility criteria related to the clearing and settlement of inter-Arab financial transactions, as well as transactions between Arab countries and their main trading partners. Buna, as a centralized multicurrency platform, aims to enable financial institutions, including commercial and central banks, to send and receive cross-border payments across the Arab region and beyond in Arab currencies, as well as key international currencies, in an efficient, cost-effective, risk-controlled and transparent environment. Buna offers its participants a state-of-the-art payment platform compliant with international standards. In fact, bringing Buna to reality constitutes a major, tangible and irreversible step towards the empowerment and integration of Arab economies. The launch of Buna signals the start of the gradual onboarding operations of financial institutions that have opted to be pioneers of this first-of-its-kind regional financial market infrastructure, aiming to process the first payment transaction in a few weeks. On this occasion, His Excellency Dr. Abdulrahman A. Al Hamidy, Director General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of the Arab Monetary Fund, expressed his gratitude and appreciation of the strategic launch of the platform which aims to encourage and develop Arab financial activities, commercial trade and cross-border investments. This system aims to promote trade relations and develop investment activities between the Arab countries and providing an environment that facilitates the development of financial and banking services and products in the region. His Excellency also expressed his sincere appreciation and gratitude to the Governors of the Central Banks and Arab monetary institutions, the Board of Governors of the Fund and its Board of Directors for their efforts in supporting the platform’s inauguration. His Excellency especially expressed his gratitude to the United Arab Emirates authorities for providing significant reinforcement for the launch of the platform. His Excellency also thanked the central banks, Arab monetary institutions and the team of experts from the international financial institutions for their continuous cooperation during this implementation phase.

  20. Today’s action in the S&P has been extraordinary. We are seeing the fastest decent in the S&P 500 to -10% in HISTORY!!! If you look at the chart you are seeing some sell side exhaustion. This might be the oversold relief rally starting to take place. I personally believe the selling is overdone in the short term. I finally found my footing and got a good trade in SQ and UAL going up. I also believe there will a lot of volatility over the next few months. The chart below is a very nice example of calmer heads prevailing or the big boys taking advantage of the bounce like me.

  23. 2-26-2020 Newshound Guru Kaperoni ...One...They [CBI] are a professional organization utilizing professional techniques to manage and control the financial system in Iraq. Two, there is to much currency in circulation. Three, Iraq's total mineral net worth is 15 - 16 trillion dollars. At the current dinar in circulation, a 1 to $1 RV would completely bankrupt the country literally 3 times the entire worth of minerals including oil. Four, such an event would completely throw the entire financial system into chaos in Iraq. Five, monetary policy is a group of tools that support the demands of the financial system. An RV or RI completely circumvents that process. For example the CBI generates revenue from the buy/sell of currency. It also reserves the right to raise or lower the value to counter inflation or deflation from time to time if needed. An RV would not only create chaos, but would prevent the usage of those tools. And lastly Six, a currencies value is determined by market forces. Not some random or arbitrary value. That is 6 solid reason the dinar could never and will never will RV/RI. Our only hope is a gradual appreciation directly related to the success of the private sector/market economy. 2-26-2020 Intel Guru Angle1 ...when we get to teller training [In Iraq] - teller training equals citizen education. 2-26-2020 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat So the drama of the ratification of Allawi to take the seat of the prime minister continues. We expect this to happen this week, probably Thursday. Then things should move quickly in Iraq.

  24. I’m definitely standing with you Ron! I love the Good Lord Jesus more than I can put into words! The thing that frustrates me the most is, I’m hoping for an RV while I’m alive so that I personally can see the joy and happiness of the hurting people that we can help! I wanted to give a large amount of money to my Power Preacher, so he could do some incredible work, but the Lord has since called him home! But the fight is not over yet! I hope I get to let people see the love of Jesus by helping in what ever manor He sees fit! When He calls I will answer, I’ve tried to be a faithful steward for the last 35 years and I don’t intend to stop now!! JMHO!🤠

  26. Toddler Hugs Pizza Delivery Man Who Just Lost His Daughter February 27, 2020 A pizza delivery man in Rhode Island received an unexpected hug at a time he needed it most. On February 15, Lindsey Sheely ordered delivery from Wicked Good Pizza in West Warwick. After paying for the food, her 2-year-old son Cohen ran outside to say goodbye. "Last night when we got our pizza (and ranch) delivered, Cohen ran out to hug the delivery guy and tried to give him a kiss, too! We thought it was so sweet and funny, then realized that our doorbell might have caught the interaction on camera, and it did!" Sheely wrote on Facebook. The day after she posted the heartwarming video, Sheely received a personal message from the pizza delivery man, Ryan Catterson. When Catterson, who saw the video through a mutual friend, asked if he could share it on Facebook, Sheely visited his profile. She discovered a soliciting-of-any-kind-is-not-allowed page for the funeral expenses of his 16-year-old daughter Alyssa, who passed away unexpectedly a week ago. "Little did we know what Cohen's hug to this stranger would mean," Sheely wrote in an update. "Someone showed Ryan the video I posted to my IG, so he messaged me, and I found him on FB so he could share the video. Through this, we found out that Ryan unexpectedly lost his daughter recently, and that hug from Cohen was a little blessing from God. I believe in divine appointments and know that Ryan was the one to deliver our pizza for a reason." Catterson, 38, told NBC 10 how much that hug meant to him. "It was the perfect timing for it, I had been telling my kids and the whole family how much I needed hugs before they came and then that sweet little boy gave me one," he said. "It was almost as if the universe or my daughter had known and sent it to me."Catterson continued, "We get really caught up in the fast pace of life, and I think sometimes that causes us to lose sight of what actually matters, which is mental wellbeing. You never know when the last time you see someone you love will be, so I hope tonight every parent out there takes a few minutes to explain to their children how much they love them. Hug them a little tighter than usual, talk to them about their feelings, and teach them how to deal with pain in healthy ways."!

  30. I believe that there are a lot of geopolitical moves being implemented with the cover of darkness(corona virus). Lots of moving parts and the globalists tend to let no crisis go to waste. Many govts are going to use this as an opportunity to go cashless. Iraq May use it to make the change to their monetary policy. I’ve stated here before that I believe we are going back to a gold standard of sorts where fiat currencies will be backed by gold and traded digitally via XRP(bridge asset). This will take pressure off the US dollar as the world reserve and level the playing field amongst all the different nations. We are going to a decentralized Distributed Ledger Economy.... Stocks, bonds, real estate, Precious Metals, fine art.... all will be tokenized and on a blockchain. RTGS (real time global settlement)currencies are a real thing and I believe the virus presents the perfect opportunity to shut down economies temporarily and flip the switch to the new quantum financial system... I could be wrong. It’s just where my research has led me

  31. Iraq bans public gatherings on virus fear; travel ban totals 9 countries News Desk Reuters Baghdad, Iraq / Thu, February 27, 2020 / 09:05 am This picture taken on Feb. 24, shows a view outside the quarantine zone at the hospital in the central Iraqi holy shrine city of Najaf where the first case of first case of coronavirus COVID-19 documented in Iraq is being treated. (AFP/Haidar Hamdani ) Iraq banned all public gatherings and barred entry by travellers from Kuwait and Bahrain, the health minister said on Wednesday, banning travel to or from a total of nine countries as fears grew over the spread of the coronavirus. Iraqi citizens are now banned from travelling to China, Iran, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, Italy, Bahrain, and Kuwait, Health Minister Jaafar Allawi said in a decree seen by Reuters. Allawi also ordered the suspension of schools and university and the closure of cinemas, cafes, clubs, and other public gathering spots nationwide from Feb. 27 to March 7. Fears over the spread of the virus come as Iraq faces a domestic crisis with nearly 500 people killed since Oct. 1 in mass anti-government demonstrations. "All gatherings in public places, for any reason, are banned, and the relevant authorities must take all measures to enforce this," said Allawi, who heads the government task force handling response to the virus. Coronavirus is believed to have originated in a market selling wildlife in the Chinese city of Wuhan late last year and has infected about 80,000 people and killed more than 2,700, the vast majority in China.

  32. They need to attach an Addendum to the BANKING LAW BOOK . . . The corrupt criminal politicians of Iraq has remarkably paralleled so effectively GREED that it may be compared to the race of ET's known as Star Treks " Ferengi " ….. take a look below to see how many of the " RULES " you might attribute to that mob in the M.E. Ferengi Rules of Acquisition Once you have their money, you never give it back. The best deal is the one that brings the most profit. Never spend more for an acquisition than you have to. A woman wearing clothes is like a man in the kitchen. Never allow family to stand in the way of opportunity. Keep your ears open. Small print leads to large risk. Opportunity plus instinct equals profit. Greed is eternal. Even if it's free, you can always buy it cheaper. Anything worth doing is worth doing for money. Anything worth doing is worth doing twice. Keep your family close, keep your Latinum closer. A deal is a deal. (until a better one comes along). A contract is a contract is a contract (but only between Ferengi). A Ferengi without profit is no Ferengi at all. Satisfaction is not guaranteed. Only give money to people you know you can steal from. Never place friendship above profit. Never place friendship before profit. A wise man can hear profit in the wind. Latinum can't buy happiness, but you can sure have a blast renting it. There's always a way out. As the customers go, so goes the wise profiteer. There's nothing more dangerous than an honest businessman. Whisper your way to success. What's in it for me? Never make fun of a Ferengi's mother. (insult something he cares about, instead). It never hurts to suck up to the boss. War is good for business. Peace is good for business. If it's free, take it and worry about hidden costs later. Friendship is temporary; profit is forever. She can touch your lobes, but never your Latinum. Profit is its own reward. What's mine is mine, and what's yours is mine too. Never confuse wisdom with luck. Ambition knows no family. Make your shop easy to find. Don't trust a man wearing a better suit than your own. The bigger the smile, the sharper the knife. Everything is worth something to somebody. Gratitude can bring on generosity. Reward anyone who adds to your profits so they will continue to do so. Never ask when you can take. Good customers are as rare as Latinum, Treasure them. There is no substitute for success. Free advice is seldom cheap. Keep your lies consistent. The riskier the road, the greater the profit. Win or lose, there's always Hyperian beetle snuff. Ear stroking will get you anything. Ferengi are not responsible for the stupidity of other races. Never trust your customers. If it gets you profit, sell your own mother. Home is where the heart is, but the stars are made of Latinum. Every once in a while, declare peace. It confuses the hell out of your enemies. It's better to swallow your pride than to lose your profit. When the going gets tough, the tough change the Rules. Beware of the Vulcan greed for knowledge. The flimsier the product, the higher the price. A friend is not a friend if he asks for a discount. Never let the competition know what you're thinking. A friend in need means three times the profit. Ask not what your profits can do for you, ask what you can do for your profits. There are many paths to profit. Act without delay! The sharp knife cuts quickly. Females and finances don't mix. Expand or die. For every Rule, there is an equal and opposite Rule, (except when there's not). Enough... is never enough. Every man has his price. Trust is the biggest liability of all. If they take your first offer, you either asked too little or offered too much. The only value of a collectible is what you can get somebody else to pay for it. Nature decays, but Latinum lasts forever. Sleep can interfere with... Faith moves mountains... (of inventory). Don't trust anyone who trusts you. There is no honor in poverty. A warranty is valid only if they can find you. Dignity and an empty sack is worth the sack. Treat people in your debt like family, exploit them [ruthlessly]. Never have sex with the boss' sister. Always have sex with the boss. The best contract always has a lot of fine print. There's always a catch. You can't free a fish from water. Everything is for sale, including friendship. Never judge a customer by the size of his wallet, (...sometimes, good things come in small packages). Everything is for sale, including friendship. Even a blind man can recognize the glow of latinum. You can't make a deal if you're dead. Count it. Stay neutral in conflict so that you can sell supplies to both sides. Never trust a beneficiary. Wives serve, brothers inherit. Only fools pay retail. There's no such thing as an unfair advantage. Risk is part of the game... play it for all it's worth. There's nothing wrong with charity...as long as it winds up in your pocket. Necessity, n. The mother of invention. Profit is the father. A lie is a way to tell the truth to someone who doesn't know. Sell the sizzle, not the steak. Even in the worst of times, someone turns a profit. Competition and fair play are mutually exclusive. Blood is thicker than water, and Latinum is thicker than both. Chances aren't what they used to be. Know your enemies... but do business with them always. Not even dishonesty can tarnish the shine of profit. A fool and his money is the best customer. Let others keep their reputation. You keep their money. Hear all, trust nothing. A Ferengi waits to bid until his opponents have exhausted themselves. Never cheat a Klingon... unless you're sure you can get away with it. It's always good business to know about new customers before they walk in your door. If you're going to have to endure, make yourself comfortable. The justification of profit is profit. New customers are like razortoothed grubworms. They can be succulent, but sometimes they can bite back. It takes a Ferengi to cheat a Ferengi. Sometimes the only thing more dangerous than a question is an answer. Employees are the rungs on the ladder of success... don't hesitate to step on them. Never begin a business negotiation on an empty stomach. Never gamble with an empath. You can't free a fish from water. Always know what you're buying. Possession is 11/okt of the law. Beware the man who doesn't make time for oo-mox. Latinum lasts longer than lust. There's a sucker born every minute; be sure you're the first to find each one. You can't buy fate. Never be afraid to mislabel a product. Never trust a hardworking employee. More is good... all is better. Synthehol is the lubricant of choice for a customer's stuck purse. A wife is a luxury... a smart accountant, a necessity. Accountants do not play the game; they only keep the score. Life's not fair. How else would you turn a profit? A wealthy man can afford anything except a conscience. A verbal contract isn't worth the paper it's written on. Never allow doubt to tarnish your lust for Latinum. The customer is always right, (...until you get their cash). When in doubt, lie. If you believe it, they believe it. In business deals, a disruptor can be almost as important as a calculator. Anything worth fighting for is worth hiding from. Deep down, everyone's a Ferengi. No good deed ever goes unpunished. [Quark's rule] When Morn leaves, it's all over. Whenever you exploit someone, it never hurts to thank them. That way, it's easier to exploit them the next time. (Neelix made this rule up) The Unwritten Rule When no appropriate Rule applies, make one up !

  33. 2-27-2020 Newshound/Intel Guru Mnt Goat Article: "THE ARRIVAL OF THE 2020 BUDGET IN PARLIAMENT AFTER TWO WEEKS" Quote: "THE MINISTRIES OF FINANCE AND PLANNING WILL SET THE BROAD LINES OF THE BUDGET BEFORE SENDING IT TO PARLIAMENT FOR A VOTE." Sounds to me they have not yet spent any money from the budget so far for 2020.

  34. Thanks for the informative article Pitcher ... sad that they are more concerned with lining their pockets than moving ahead for the benefit of the country and the Iraqi people. They should be removed from office for failing in their duty to show up for a critical parliamentary session, and serve the country simply based on partisan politics, greed, and Iranian influences. It reminds me of the democratic party here at home..! I agree with you Command Sergeant Major Thack - thanks..!

  42. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR COMMENTS.🙏🏼😊 Few days ago the General Authority of Customs issued the first amendment of the controls for declaring funds upon entry and exit across the Iraqi borders. The Customs Authority noted that "the amendment entered into force on 19/2/2020 at border crossings." You are allowed $10,000 dollars or the equivalent in other currency but it is forbidden an amount in excess of 1,000,000 Iraqi dinar, The equivalent to $840 at the actual rate. Yesterday the announcement from the CBI About Sterilization of local currency to Counteract adverse changes to the domestic currency in foreign exchange markets. Also the CBI issued a new book in which it compiled banking laws, As published in the Iraqi fact sheet, to facilitate and reduce time for professional, researchers and dealers in those laws. I believe the CBI is on the VERGE of international business with an international recognized currency. Go CBI Go Dinar 💵💵💵 Go international Go RV
