There are so many things that I want to go over right now I barely know where to start!
 
Perhaps "the basics" would be good. Or maybe the rate should be addressed. I'm also working through a "Post-RV - What To Expect And Do" article that will go in VIP this week. There are changes coming in the tax codes (for multiple countries), there are political situations that are extremely relevant and telling, and so much more is happening all at once right now!....

Adam Montana 13 March 2020 - CBI Auctions and Iraqi Budget

 
Like many of you, I do fairly frequent "check ins" on my feelings about this investment... and I have questions, just like everyone else. "Is this still worth waiting on? Did the bus turn around and it's time to get off?"

You know - a "check in". In these crazy times, are we the crazy ones? Are we crazy for sitting this ride out a little longer? Should we be throwing in the towel, selling all our dinar, and spending all of our money on toilet paper and hand sanitizer?
 
I think the answer lies at least partly in the following subjects, so let's get into it! 
 
The topics today are as follows: CBI Auctions, and the Iraqi Budget....
