That makes a lot of sense, really appreciate the time, thanks.

I appreciate the reply. Yeah, I go back and forth on the whole thing and ultimately just walk away at that point and let it be. It just hit me recently about the whole selling of large notes when the rumor is they are trying to get them out of circulation. This, specifically, was not answered. Could you shed some light on how those two are possible simultaneously? Thanks.

Ok so I know there has been a lot of stuff going on as of late and I have a question that just doesn't add up in my head. The general consensus is that the LOP means they are slowly getting rid of the large notes from circulation. If that is the case, why is it that currency dealers like DT continue to buy more large notes to sell to us. It seems counter productive. I thought that maybe they would run out and that would be it but they just keep putting more into circulation. I have heard that they are really just trying to get rid of the large notes from within Iraq herself. Perhaps that is the case. Just curious if someone wanted to shed some light on how that logically makes sense. AGAIN, NOT A LOP QUESTION. Looking for insight into the dichotomy between selling large notes and at the same time, trying to get them out of circulation. Thanks in advance.

I find it comical at this point that with all the rumors about RV dates, most all people were certain that IT WILL happen before the new year. Not just the 'gurus', but all the people they duped with their 'logic'. Everyone wrong, no one admitting it, how funny and sad. We will continue to see this investment drag on and anyone with their dates based on their logic should probably realize by now that they are pretty clueless. So what is my point? Am i just being negative? Well, a little as i am frustrated too. But i am tired of all this and i have only been invested for about 4 months. How you long timers have been able to make it through years of people predicting, " it will happen before whatever date' is beyond me. Our logic is obviously flawed. They don't have to RV at all. God is NOT blessing us with this (logic means He than was all for over 40,000 Iraqis dying so Americans could get richer). Removing 3 zeros is a good way to turn 27 trillion into 27 billion currency in circulation. I have seen alk the stuff about how no way and there is some sound logic but conclusions are made with incomplete data. So much of this investment is about people making conclusions with very incomplete data and logically, they are going to be very flawed. Bottom line, it is the new year and i propose this, obviously you can all do what you want,i am done watching tbe pot boil. I am signed up for the email from DD, anyone paying 9$ a month for his txt service is definitely being duped. Since the email will tell me RV, I dont need to sit and watch. I need to get away and live my life. I propose the same for anyone else feeling the same as me. I know people will bash me for this post but i dont care, have fun and vent on me if you need to. I wont be back. Have a good year to all, stay grounded, and live your life. Danboy out.

Trimark, I really appreciate your response. It is nice to see some good constructive discussion. Your points are valid as are Drox. I am no expert and have little to provide but by paying attention to discussion like this, I am able to learn and can start to look in different directions that will continue to add to my point of view. Again, thank you both for such good discussion. We need a lot more of this in this forum.

Interesting read. It is a little funny reading through all the posts on this topic about how it is gonna happen before the end of Oct. Now it is gonna happen before the end of the year. I have read other posts that said the exact same thing from 09. This thing is definitely a rollercoaster and I haven't been in it nearly as long as a lot of you. I would say I feel your pain, but I am too new to do so and won't insult your longevity in this investment. It does make me take a step back though when I read through such professing confidence when it has not come to pass. Gotta just stay positive. I hope your buddy over there is right. I have heard some different info from one of my buddies. Who knows.

I am with you brotha, I m very hopeful, just want to stay grounded too. Otherwise I know myself and I could get carried away by this thing. My wife would not be happy about that.

Perfect!!!! Very well stated, I agree with you 100%

Lumpsum, sure I get that. I have been a silent member of this forum for over a month now and have enjoyed reading all the intel and info. But lately, I have noticed that anyone that posts something other than what points towards an RV seems to get torn apart. Whatever. I grew up surrounding myself with people who share a very different perspective than me and it benefited me a lot. I share one thing on this site and deal with this. If people on this site want to just hear all the good news than so be it. I am over it. I will go back to being a silent member and sit on the sidelines cause DAMN if you say anything that isn't -- RV impending; GO RV; God bless America and this investment (my favorite by the way); or keep up the good work; I am soooooo excited:); Seriously? Can't we be open to debate.

meatmen4dinar, I appreciate and accept your apology. Please understand, I am excited about the RV. I think it is very possible and likely. I do not know when, how much or if other circumstances are going to come into play that we have not foreseen.Do you? I am just providing information, that is all. I put it in the rumor section, not the news section. I have done an absolute ton of research and have heard a myriad of different perspectives. Many don't hold water but some do. I will always question everything and I pray I never lose that. Questioning what I read and hear and study forces me to do more research and not just take what I hear as gospel. I have done it my whole life and is why I am able to be confident in what I know about many things. No I am not claiming to know everything, but in regards to what I put my mind to, I want all the facts, opinions and intel I can get. Whether I like it or not is irrelevant. Whether there is truth to it or not is what matters. I read a lot of books I disagree with, watch multiple news networks that I struggle to listen to, all so that I have a well rounded perspective and not just one side of the fence or the other. Sorry this has gotten so philosophical, that was not my intent when I just posted some thoughts from my friend in Iraq. Thanks, absolutely will.

WOW!!!!! I POSTED THIS INFO IN THE RUMOR SECTION TO PROVIDE WHAT LITTLE I CAN TO THE DINAR WORLD!!!!!!!! SORRY IT WAS NOT WHAT YOU NEEDED TO HEAR OR WANTED TO HEAR. MOVE ON. He gets mortared on a regular basis in the Green Zone, and mentioned what I have read, they have little power or water, less than 4 hours a day access. Is this worthless too? Should I just keep it to myself? I really was just trying to provide an inside perspective. That is all. This is so rediculous that I have to defend myself from this crap. Say what you want, I am done.

Thank you. I certainly don't need people to agree with what I posted. I am not even saying I agree, again, it came from a friend I have over there and thought it might interest a few people, that was all. Instead of healthy debate and discussion, it has provoked more negativity. I have been on this site many times over the last month and it is disturbing how minimal amount of debate is going on. I see people saying, "if you don't have anything nice to say than don't say anything at all". I disagree with this, respectfully, because I think this is a great thing to talk about and debate differing points of view. None of us really knows when or how much in regards to the RV, we have our "intel" but even the guys with the top contacts admit that we need to be patient and just let it happen, ie, relax cause nobody really knows, we just speculate. So why not allow us plebes to have our speculation as well and not treat us like we are some influx of negativity but rather, a different point of view. I welcome open debate, it is how I learn best. I always want to hear opinion that differs from mine so I can do more research to gather more info. Why can't this site be more about that rather than bash anything other then, "THE RV IS IMMINENT!!!

lumpsum, I agree. Was just trying to offer something I heard, put it in the "rumor" section and this is what I get. No constructive discussion, just bashing. Why bother.

SO all the other people that post their opinions on this site have Foreign Economics phD's? Or are those the only one's YOU listen to? Cause I doubt that is the case. But I get it, I won't post any opinions on this site any more cause apparently, unless it is all positive and happy, then it is unwanted. That is pathetic.

Well first of all, this is the rumor section, I did say to take it with a grain of salt, twice, and I did also say it is from a buddy over there who is offering his opinion based on what he sees. The fact that it is not always sunshine and rainbows for you must be tough. How can you go through life only wanting to hear about all the best case scenarios. Quite frankly, I am sick of that. I would much rather gather all the thoughts, facts, and opinions of all those involved so I can make the best and most informed decision for me. Sycophants and best case scenario people are a waste of my time. If you are different, than do what I tell people who complain about a TV show they think is offensive, and turn the channel, some people might be interested and if you are not, than just walk away, move on. If you have a constructive point of view that differs, great, argue it and lets have a healthy argument that benefits everyone. But don't just attack the character of someone you don't know simply because you don't like what he has to say. That is just small minded.
