  1. Why a lot of people still selling all their dinar when the withdrawal of all the remaining US soldier will end in this month?don't they believe in Sonny1's prediction by middle of January 2012 or should I say don't we all believe in Sonny1's prediction? I do believe what Sonny1 and Adam say. Does this means that the quickest all the remaining soldier back to the states by this month, the closer we are to the RV. Don't they ( people that are selling their dinar ) want their dinar RV, do they?I am confused why they are still selling when the time get closer.

    They've offered no guarantees and, in fact, Sonny has admitted that he's been wrong many times.

    Your note infers that you think this is a 'slam dunk'.

    You may want to re-think that and do further research.

  2. Impressive research. I stand in awe... :bow:

    Thanks, Tiff ... pretty simple research, really. At least when you know where to look.

    I learned this about 5 years ago and I was amazed at how simple the underbelly of the internet is. The person who owns DV certainly knows this as well. He has a profit model, volunteer mods and very little overhead for running this site. He will consistently need to replace the vast majority of visitors to this site because most people won't have the patience or attention span to keep their 'dream' alive. This reality is evidenced on this site by the fact that most posters were not members a year ago. As someone who has been an IQD investor for a couple years and visiting this site for about 18 months ... I can tell you that the vast majority of names that you see on DV today are different than Dec 2010. probably 80-90% turnover for posters anyway. Mods too.

    You will see this next Dec too when (most likely) IQD investors will still be waiting.

    Make no mistake about it, the owner of this site makes a killing on the regular visitors writing and reading off topic posts and reposting dinar articles and certainly the reposting of every guru that you can think of ... again eyeballs = $$$. Eventually, some of those (he claims 40,000+) members will anti up for VIP. You can easily spreadsheet those numbers at a minimal % (paying VIP dues of about $15 per month) and see that we're talking far more monthly income than the overwhelming majority of visitors to this site earn. Like I said earlier, it's a good business.

    TS

  3. The person who owns this site has a nice business, selling VIP memberships and taking advantage of other revenue streams that the average internet marketer normally tries to capitalize upon.

    The IQD may RV. But in order to better understand the field on which you stand, you need to look at internet traffic. Traffic here is decent. See www.alexa.com to review all the traffic trends of DV ... On it you will find some of your observations supported here as men over 45 tend to be conservative. Especially childless, non college graduates.

    The 6,746 most popular (most visited) website in the US, alexa's analytics summarize DV this way:

    Dinarvets.com's three-month global Alexa traffic rank is 30,193. Visitors to it spend approximately nine minutes per visit to the site and 52 seconds per pageview. Roughly 90% of this site's visitors are in the US, where it has attained a traffic rank of 6,746. Visitors to Dinarvets.com view 6.8 unique pages each day on average. Relative to the overall population of internet users, the site's audience tends to be over the age of 45; they are also disproportionately childless men browsing from home who are not college graduates and have incomes over $30,000.

    When you visit alexa, you will notice that traffic to DV is down about 40% during the last three months and generally down quite a bit for the year. It's possible that measures have been taken to try to increase traffic here and, of course, once again we are getting regular information that the RV is imminent. This will keep people coming back and might possibly increase VIP membership. Remember, websites are just like television programming: eyeballs = $$$.

    Personally, I'm ready for an RV. But I don't expect it for a couple years.

    Hope this clarifies a little regarding your original post.

  4. CNN. Broadcasting While Cracking Open The Bubbly. Why Wait Until New Years Eve ? It Might Happen Sooner + It's Best To Be Prepared!

    11-25-2011 Guru Frank26 on Dec. 12th our president will have plenty of time to study and look things over that the Authors of the plan have presented to him...then between the 12th and the 15th, we approximate that he will give permission to Maliki to seek the key to their shackles and end of chapter 7... we may well see the rate the first week of the New Year.

    This is the same thing he said last year! Isn't there anyone on here anymore that remembers Aug, Sept and Oct of 2010? Don't any of you remember T-minus 85 days and counting ... counting down to Dec 31 2010? How is Frank still relevent?

    TS

  5. It appears from the developments of the last 6 months that dinar holders will have to wait until sometime in 2013 (at the very earliest) to see an RV. Unlike the 'opinion' that the owner of this site is advancing, there is NO evidence that we'll see something this Thanksgiving (or by next Thanksgiving for that matter). The owner of this site has given no supporting evidence of this claim. If I were speaking with him personally, I'd ask him to cite two sources that show any indication that the IQD will RV this year. There is no evidence, just ginned up hope.

    The withdrawal of US Troops should bode well for the IQD investment as it will require the Iraqis to put up or shut up (or be overrun by Iran, if possible). I expect Iraq to stand well on her own with the US still heavily participating behind the curtain. Once/If it appears that Iraq can stand on her own, then you may be able to speculate about the strengthening of the currency. Realistically, it's hard to imagine that any stability can really be gauged in less than 12 months. Therefore, the idea that -- at the earliest -- we are looking at 2013. Even then, the speculated amount, by the owner of this site, of a dime or more is probably generous. You can forget your fantasies of $3 anytime soon (soon meaning at least 10 years), especially if you mix in the forthcoming worldwide depression (some say we are already in that depression). A full scale world wide depression means LESS economic activity and MORE uncertainty. Energy prices fall dramatically when serious recession hits, let alone depression.

    So ... the possible answer to the question of the original poster is that there is SO much secondhand dinar out there held by people that are in over their head that if one wants to divest of IQD now, there will be ample opportunity to get back in during the next 12-18 months (or longer). For those holding thousands to tens of thousands of dollars worth of IQD, what's the difference? One can put that money somewhere else for the near to medium term, then get back in ... pretty simple. Simple supply and demand. The future will have ample supply of reasonably or cheaply priced IQD if anyone wants it. Yes, I'm still holding some and will continue to do so, even though I've lightened up a bit.

    My personal point of view is that there will be no increase in the value of the IQD until 2014 -2015 -- a gut feeling you might say, based on watching the machinations of this adventure for almost two years now.

    Ask yourself what your gut feeling is as to why the owner of this site would advance his 'rate talk' NOW? Yes, you are probably correct on that 'read' ...

    Best wishes for great health and prosperity for everyone,

  6. Selling 3M IQD, purchased from Dinar Trade. All currency 25K, uncirculated notes.

    I'm in the Denver Metro area, so that would probably be easier ... but we can arrange anything securely through PayPal or by other means. Prefer to sell to one buyer.

    Asking $3,047 for the entire 3M.

    If interested, please email and I'll contact you. Email: constant.gtt@gmail.com

  7. Staying away from the usual back and forth ... the original essay seems correct (to me) in stating that the withdrawal of US troops is a good thing. People on this site love to make this into a political rant, but it makes sense that if Iraq can stand on her own, then IQD investors will have a real shot at the type of return that the owner of DV detailed last week (maybe a $0.25 RV). If Iraq indeed goes to hell, then there's your answer. You've got to believe that the US has some sort of backup plan for Iraq (undiscussed in public). And you've got to believe that the US wouldn't make this move -- with oil in mind -- unless it had a firm confidence that Iraq is prepared to succeed at this point.

    That said, it will likely take a good year for real stability to be established and confirmed. Therefore, it is difficult for me to see how a decent return on our IQD investment could occur before well into 2013. I'm serious.

    TS

  8. Keep in mind that a person is only allowed to give a few negatives a day, but you are allowed to give many more positives.

    The reason I'm doing this is to even out all the "negative positive" people. The same people you are talking about also run around pushing the "+" button on every lop post.

    So, what does this mean?

    It means our true positive members will need to come out in force and change this site for the better. I'm counting on ALL OF YOU to make this happen.

    Give the negative people -'s, give the helpful people +'s.

    Negative is usually in the eye of the beholder.

    If your intent is to create a more homogeneous group, then I think you will succeed. If your intent is to create a more pointed discussion with more critical thinking, then I'll think you'll be surprised by what you get. I've always been amused by how willing people on this site are to 'bite'. There is usually a clear signal by a given poster that he/she is trying to engender a knee-jerk reaction and inflame the general group here at DV. As intended, the audience here rarely disappoints. On the other hand, it seems clear that many people on DV, who post regularily, do so with an eye toward calculating how high their positives may get.

    With respect to the dinar ... I appreciate that you have approached some real prognostication, with decent time-frames attached. We all only hope that your information is correct. And, of course, 20 - 25 cents would be phenomenal -- I've always felt that. Here's hoping!

  9. If the RV is an absolute why so much fuss over guru's and their statements. Every piece of information falls in two categories, TRUTH or LIES. Who can we trust in this? It is easy to see the liars. Who besides Adam has proven trustworthy? They all form groups to gather intel (make up false truths). Why don't we, the common people, form a group to gather truth? Truth is quantifiable and can be proven without the friend of an aunt's cousin twice removed who went to the middle east in 1951. We deserve to have someone on our side too.

    Not sure what makes you believe that the "RV is an absolute" ... even Adam will admit to the possibility that an RV may not occur. Once you have been on here for six months or more, you may see things more clearly.

    All information falls into one category: uncertain. Plain and simple. Nothing has proven to be true. Nothing.

  10. IT'S TIME FOR ME TO PUT MY 2 CENTS OUT THERE--THIS IS IN REGARD TO THE OBSESSIVENESS OVER "OKIE POST"

    ONE WOULD THINK BY THE SHEER NUMBER OF POST WITH HIS NAME IN THE TITLE THAT THIS PERSON HAS GONE WAAY PAST HIS 15 MINUTES OF FAME.

    THERE HAVE BEEN POSTINGS REQUESTING BANNING HIS ARTICLES, THERE HAS BEEN WILL THE REAL OKIE STAND UP, WHO IS OAKIE AND ON AND ON AND ON.

    SEARIOUSLY FOLKS, IF EVERYONE WOULD JUST DROP IT--AND NOT MENTION HIS NAME ANYMORE, LIKE HE NO LONGER EXIST.

    AS FAR FOR PEOPLE WHO BRING HIS POSTS OVER HERE JUST FOR "ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES" WELL LET ME TELL YOU, THERE IS NO NEED FOR THAT. WE HAVE LOTS OF ENTERTAINMENT ON THIS SITE- THANKS TO THE GREAT COMEDY OF DINAR THUG, DELTA, AND MANY OTHERS WHO BRING QUALITY HUMOUR TO HELP US WITH OUR LAUGH FOR THE DAY.

    SO PLEASE PLEASE I BEG OF YOU- NO MORE OKIE!

    Of course you are RIGHT ON ... but 90% of the people on this board just will not get that. Maybe more than 90% ...

    Thanks though,

    TS

  11. Maybe you should start your own show then and throw your opinions out and listen to others bash you? Have you listened to his shows? He does 2 to 3 per day. You might not agree but it doesn't make him wrong or an idiot. I don't agree with many of your statements, but I realize they are simply your opinion. I think his statements are reasonable and there is validity behind his thoughts. He isn't just making stuff up without a reasonable argument.

    I've listened to several of Breitling's shows and the more you listen, the less things really make sense. He contradicts himself frequently.

    The thing that always struck me as odd is that he often refers to the fact that he's doing the show from his garage.

    It's difficult to see what he adds to the conversation; therefore, the idea that he may be profitting from the sale of IQD thru BH probably isn't that far fetched.

    Plus, anyone who dismisses the possibility of an LOP out of hand isn't really paying attention. Even the guy who founded DV admits that it's possible.

    TS

  12. Your fine with your 25k notes, just be glad you have them. I have been in this investment since 2005 and made the decision to figure out how much I wanted to clear once it Rved, then I speculated that it would not RV for less than .10 cents. So i purchased as if it would RV at .10..... If it Rvs at .50 I will be ecstatic If it RVs for anything over .85 I will probably have a heart attack.

    If only more people on this site were this wise, Gasket ... Heart attack is right!

    50 cents would be absolutely incredible.

  13. Hear hear Bubbe! Now there's some real wisdom with backing...and coming from a place of kindness no less. Thank you!!!

    The narrow minded conservative judgements get tiresome to hear. How refreshing!!!

    Trust me, Hawke and Bubbe, you guys are wasting your breath (fingers) advancing your philosophy on this site. The average IQ here is about a 74, so nothing reasonable ever sinks in.

    And, no, Obama's September plan doesn't include RV. Gimme a break.

  14. I find it extremely curious that I received a "-" for simply telling firefighter_218546 that this article has been posted many times. :unsure:

    Anyone want to step up to the plate and tell me why you think that deserves a neg. :ph34r:

    Maybe you just do not like grandmas - is that your problem bunky!!! :wave::lmao:

    I feel that when an individual brings up the plus' (+) and minus' (-) that can be attributed to the various threads and comments here, this reveals a persons' true focus for posting. I guess this scorekeeping mechanism has some merit, but it is 'easy' to see that many people here post comments just to raise his/her green marks. To this practice I say, "get a life".

    No, I didn't neg you, Granny. I couldn't care less.

    TS

  15. Nice story, however you have no credibility here on this forum because this is your first post here. I do think you are very pumped about what you heard and good for you, if I hear this and was part of this I would have been so excited. Good luck here on this forum with this story.

    No one really has any credibility. ...

  16. It's just food for thought, Alex. If you don't like it, don't read it.

    The 'reaction' is exactly what most people who post on this site are looking for whether you believe one way or another.

    The person in question raises some good questions (points), ones that you, Alex, have not come close to addressing. Others have been better at addressing dissenting 'concerns'.

    Give it a rest for Christ sake!

  17. Do you know how many times there's been some crack poster that has given a drop dead date for the RV? They've done all sorts of "reasearch" and concluded the RV absolutely, positively had to be done by a certain date. Last November we were told it "had" to be done by 12/15/2010 because the smart cards were being loaded with the new, lower amounts. Last December we were told it "had" to be by 01/01/2011 because all sorts of new foreign contracts were priced with the new exchange rate. Last January it had to happen by 01/31/2011 because that was the deadline for Maliki to seat a government. This past May it had to be 06/302011 because that was the date when chapter 7 would be fully lifted. And that's just since I bought dinar last November! I'm sure it's been a non-stop, incessant drop dead festival since the very beginning. It's laughable that anyone would consider this prediction the one that is finally right.

    I hope you have your excuses ready when it doesn't occur by 09/15/2011.

    SSHHH, Networth, you are hurting my position ... PLEASE!!

    Ok, QL, I'll give you 3-1 odds. Since NW has reiterated a bit of history, let's go 3-1 just so you don't get scared off.

    TS

  18. The deletion of the 0's is obviously on the new bills. Who is to say that we won't be changing our bills in for the new bills? If the Iraqi people felt that there was going to be a LOP(whatever the heck that really means), don't you think that there would be a lot more protests and rioting going on?

    Now what kind of odd's are you going to be giving quietlearner? He has one date and you get the rest. You probably trip little blind kids too, damn. :D That's like saying you get the 9 horse and I get the rest of the field, if you are going to make a bet at least be fair about it. By the way, I will hold the money for you both!

    QuietLearner offered the amount (admittedly not to me). I just accepted. His/her terms.

    He/she has all the days through 9/15/2011.

    As for you, Dog, we'll have to do a thorough background check before allowing you to hold the IQD wagered ;-) ...

    I'd probably give 2-1 odds, but I expect that QL will quietly decline.

    TS

  19. Sure lets go 1 million dinar. Ive gotta run out the door, but Ill be back around five. Ill look for your response.

    Thanks,

    Quietlearner,

    "an opprotunity not ventured, is an opprotunity missed"

    I'm IN for 1 million dinar (with me postulating that it will NOT RV by 11:59pm -- USA PDT -- 9/15/2011).

    Mark it down. We can trade contact info later, even plan for an uninterested 3rd party to hold the IQD until Sept 15. Before you respond, please remember that "an opportunity not ventured, is an opportunity missed" ...

    I'm in Colorado.
