AZ JOE...........................hahahaahahahahahahahaa Too Funny!!!!! -
I even think the 50 dinar bills will have to be exchanged. Like Upgradable said, if you don't exchange ALL bills then SOMEONE will either get cheated or have an advantage on others and that wouldn't be allowed.
-
No, ALL money will change when it is exchanged. People that bought lower bills will have to exchange them for NEW lower bills.

I'm with you brother! Anything over a DIME and I'm counting cash.....hahahahahaa buds

Guys. to me that's the kick about this investment is watching it and being able to talk with others that are in the same boat. OF COURSE I don't know what's going to happen. I also thought this forum was set up to talk about what we THINK or our gut instincts. If some of you just want us to sit back, relax and watch then I'm a bad boy. I enjoy hearing ALL SIDES to this. I haven't bet the farm on this investment. If I lose it all then OH WELL, It doesn't matter to me who is right or wrong. I know we are finally getting close to the end of this great mystery we have been following. buds chuck

I think you are right Penny. We need to read the entire thing. Not just some lines. It looks to me like they will make NEW 25K bills that we will exchange our OLD 25K bills for in the beginning. then they will start to take the triple 0 bills out of circulation. This is a great article for me. Mudhhir Muhammad Salih, a member of the bank's advisory panel, told RFI on June 23 that in the short term, larger banknote denominations of the dinar will be issued to simplify major transactions. He said that because so many Iraqis still deal mainly in cash, it is cumbersome to carry bags full of money to pay for expensive items like cars. The inconvenience leads people making such purchases -- as well as many entrepreneurs -- to use dollars for those kinds of transactions instead of dinars, something the government wants to end. He added that large denominations equivalent to around $100 will be issued to simplify major purchases, and new coins and lower denominations will be introduced for smaller transactions. In the longer term, Saleh said a redenomination is needed wherein three zeros will be dropped so that the 25,000 Iraqi-dinar banknote -- currently the largest denomination -- becomes a 25-dinar note.

OK.... I know I am getting anxious like everyone else and I can't wait to see how our investment works out. First, I'm wondering how we will replace our old bills when the new money is printed and now guess what POPS into my head.... Where does it say in any of these news items that the new currency will be accepted as a 'trade able' currency? I mean, if they make new money, then switch it out that doesn't mean the WORLD accept it right? Just askin' chuck
-
Trust me. The only credit I want is 25 thousand credits for each one of these pink bills I have... LOL I'm hoping that we get face value for our bills and they have NOT said anything EITHER WAY as of yet. I don't think ANYONE can say what will happen until Iraq gives us more info. We are getting close. So we'll just have to hang on until IRAQ let's us know how the exchange will happen. Not some guy in Iowa wanting people to think he is some kind of genius. buds chuck PS: Now gimme some pluses hahahaha

I just read a thread where the person posting was bragging about buying 'ton' of lower denoms and thinking they were sitting pretty. Don't they know when they change out the that they will change out ALL of the notes? The article even said new bills with Kurdish writing. So he guy that is "sitting pretty" with a million dollars worth of 50's will probably have to exchange all of them for 1000 worth of the new bills if the notorious LOP happens. correct? I'm not saying that's how it is coming down so don't NEG ME!!! I'm just saying the change will effect EVERY BILL. Not just the big Bills.

Personally, I come here to read the news and rumors about my investment. This place has always had the most concise information not to mention the most up to date. I don't involved in cliques or groups and I could care less about other people's drama. Most of it comes from people with absolutely no business in whatever going on sticking their nose in or just having to offer an opinion., I try to throw in a joke every once in a while, but I could turn the computer off as fast as I turn it on and not worry if some guy with a fake name is selling snake oil. Adam, keep the free discussion open. Keep deleting the drama and let's have a place to keep track of our investment. If someone wants to start a "he said, she said" website, there's plenty of free bulletin board software out there. Just my humble opinion, but you all better listen because it's factual and genius. LOL buds PS: I'm going to try to post a pic of my newly restored 1934 GE Fridge ..... It's for sale for the right price

Well, I have always said that this will start at around a DIME and then slowly climb, letting some people cash out and others buy in hoping for a continued climb up near a 1 to 1 with the USD. Now, you are going to ask "Who is this guy and what does he know?" Answer: " I don't know ANYTHING!" "I'm one of the dumbest SOB's you have ever met" "I wouldn't listen to a word I said if I didn't know me" I just haven't posted in a while and I'm lonely. GO RV PS: Plus I wanted to get to 100 post

Show goes on in Iraq's political circus By Sami Moubayed DAMASCUS - Iraq has been absent from the world's radar since upheaval rocked the Arab world in January, toppling the regimes in Tunisia and Egypt and sending shockwaves through Bahrain, Libya, Yemen and Syria. A closer look at the political scene in Baghdad, however, shows that all is not well. Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki is in hot water, like many of his Arab counterparts - and his government might collapse soon, if not through street power, then perhaps through the shattering of the delicate balance in the upper echelons of Baghdad. Last week Maliki hinted that he may resign and call new elections, just five months after forming his second cabinet. Two months ago, large and angry demonstrations broke out in Baghdad, inspired by the Arab Spring, chanting against corruption, poor government services, and the prime minister. Among other things, he was accused of mismanagement of public office, abuse of power, authoritarianism and sectarianism. Maliki promised immediate action within the next 100 days. That deadline expires in July and there is nothing on the horizon to prove that the prime minister is willing, or capable, of living up to his promises. There is also a daily barrage of accusations against him by his predecessor Iyad Allawi, who is backed by Saudi Arabia and other Arab heavyweights who are eager to topple Maliki - seen as an extension of Iranian influence in the Arab and Muslim world. Iraq remains sharply divided between the prime minister and Allawi. The top seats in the ministries of defense and the interior are still vacant, and Maliki still denies Allawi the right to name the minister of defense. Even worse, he personally still controls the two jobs in a caretaker capacity, and seems in no hurry to give them up any time soon. On Tuesday, Allawi nominated two people for the Defense Ministry, ex-army officers Nouri al-Duleimy and Abdul-Majid Abdul Latif, but neither of them to date has been accepted by the prime minister. At a recent press conference, Maliki accused his rival of sectarianism and of breaching an agreement between them, hammered out last November. Then, Allawi sluggishly agreed to accept Maliki as premier, although the latter controlled only 89 out of 325 seats in parliament whereas Allawi's secular National Iraqi List commanded a slim majority of 91 seats. Instead, Allawi would be given a new job, which rivals, and in some cases theoretically challenges, that of the prime minister - chairman of the National Council for Strategic Policies (NCSP). That post, six months down the road, is still nowhere close to being formed. Allawi complains that his coalition is being treated "not as a partner but as a participant" in the Maliki government. Allawi accepted the novel post with a grain of salt. It took heavy lobbying by Saudi Arabia, and a phone call from US President Barack Obama, to convince him to settle for the NCSP, along with assurances that the body would have real powers, rather than ceremonial duties. The new council was supposed to operate under the umbrella of the Iraqi executive branch and replace the National Security Council, mandated to monitor government ministers and make sure that they carry out their duties according to the constitution. Additionally, the council was supposed to have several branches: (domestic) political affairs, foreign policy, economic and monetary affairs, security and military affairs, energy, oil and gas, electricity, water and environmental affairs. The council would have a president, or secretary general, an entire staff and premises allocated by the Iraqi government in Baghdad. The council will also have its own budget, which is yet to be determined but will equal that of the premiership, the parliamentary speaker and the presidency. Allawi will reportedly be entitled to approximately 100 advisers and two military units to protect him and the council from terrorist operations. Because of so much deliberate delay, Allawi recently announced that he was no longer interested in the offer, and that he too would back out on his agreement with Maliki and call for early elections. If that happens, there is no telling what kind of vacuum will emerge in Iraq and who will fill it, especially as Arab countries have too much on their plate at this stage to focus on Iraq. Theoretically, with Saudi Arabia focused on the situation in Bahrain and Syria occupied by internal problems, the only country willing and able to do the job is Iran. All eyes are now focused on Iraqi Kurdistan President Masoud al-Barazani, who has said he will launch a new initiative to bridge the gap between Maliki and Allawi. A 15-man committee has been formed to conduct shuttle diplomacy between the two leaders, under the auspices of Barazani, and to date they have made no contacts with any of the Arab countries neighboring Iraq, or with the Iranians. Last October, Barazani's name graced a deal, known as the Irbil Agreement, where all parties agreed to form a national partnership government. Under the agreement, Maliki and President Jalal Talabani would retain their posts, while Allawi would get to chair the NCSP. The real problem facing Iraq today, and explaining Maliki's delay, is fear of what the NCSP will mean for Iraq once both Maliki and Allawi are out of office. The November agreement did not state whether the council would permanently be under the control of Allawi's Iraqiya bloc, or whether different parties, or sects, would rotate within its leadership in future years. Iraqis need to decide whether the council's leader will always be a Shi'ite, given that Allawi is Shi'ite, or whether Sunnis, Kurds and Christians will be entitled to compete for the post. If the new council will have powers equal to that of the prime minister, will it become part of the sectarian division of power in Iraq? Will it become a permanent seat that is given to the "second runner up" in any parliamentary election? And what will its status become if Allawi becomes prime minister one day? Would it stay with Allawi's team or will it go to the "defeated" coalition in parliament? If this is the case, it needs to be said, either in writing or gentleman's agreement; especially that in today's case, Allawi's team is not a minority in parliament, but actually, the coalition with the largest number of seats.

DinarC; None of these are Easy's thoughts or opinions. He just goes around to different sites and gives us a quick synopsis about who is saying what. We greatly appreciate it also. THANKS EASY!

umbertino: I'm already partners with a guy in a small production company. We have one movie already made and trying to find distribution called 'The Mitchell Tapes' here is the facebook for it http://www.facebook.com/TheMitchellTapes Plus we are starting a new horror movie in the next couple of weeks. I also got an email last week from the producers of the next "Weekend at Bernie's" movie. they asked if I wanted to be in it. Of course I said HECK YES!!!!! So, as I've said before. With or without Dinars, I have been very blessed to be able to live out my dream. Buds chuck

I think I found an image of him online.

Funny that everyone is mentioning the Florida gulf side. My wife and I are looking into homes around Port Charlotte. They are just about giving away homes down there right now. RV or no RV we are planning on buying a house down there within 12 months. Before the prices start to go up. One out of every 5 homes down there are empty and you can get a NICE 3 bedroom home with pool and on a canal that leads to the bay for around 70K. We plan on selling our tanning salon, adding that to the money I have saved from doing movies and RETIRING. I'm in my early fifties and she's in her early 40's. that gives us time to ENJOY LIFE a while. We've earned it. buds chuck

Some of you guys have WAY more Dinar than I have! LOL Let's hope we all get to that spacial place we dream about. Mine is on a simple beach somewhere warm with good snorkeling, diving and fishing. . . . . . . (and a private jet hehehehe)

I don't know why people think money can't fall or rise sharply in value. Canada's dollar use to be worth only .65 - .70 and now it is closer to .95 If you owned a million Canadian dollars bought at the .65 range and held onto it until now wouldn't you have made $300,000 dollars? My numbers might be a bit off, but you know what I mean I'm sure. buds PS: TQueezy..... You will never have a 25K note being the same as a $25 note. BOTH notes will be changed when it changes. People with $25 notes will exchange for a coin probably.

I think if this was a scam then Attorney Generals from all 50 states would have been all over this just to see their name in the news as a great public servant. I have no idea how this will happen either, but I am SURE I'll make some money from it. It could be any amount you want to wish for. I agree that there is a reason people are turning tail right now. I don't know why, but I am of the belief that many of them knew each other and were in some kind of agreement. IE: Pumpers for sellers that got some kind of payment or kick back. Personally, I don't think we will ever see Ali again. I think he did a Steve Miller Band on us and 'Took the Money and Ran' There's no reason for any of us to try to quote rates or dates. None us really know. EVERY one of us are guessing. From the people that believe in the big windfall to the people that think all of the currency will be changed into lower bills and then the exchange rate will go up. I do think we are within a month or so just by what Shabibi said. I don't want anyone hollaring at me, but I think they will change EVERY SINGLE BILL THEY HAVE. New designs, New language and New denominations. Then they will adjust pricing at the new exchange rate. JUST MY OPINION. best to us all buds chuck

Are you saying Ali is "Floating like a butterfly" with his profits? If he is, many people will be "Stinging like a bee" I think he's long gone. Just my opinion. You KNOW he has made MILLIONS and probably has a huge stash also. Why mess with us anymore? buds
-
I am considering getting just a bit more if I can get a good rate. I think we will at MINIMUM make 3 times our investment and there's not many things you can buy and get triple (OR MORE) back. So, I might add a bit more. I'm not heavily invested like I bet the farm on this. I just bought late last year so I haven't had the extreme anxiety some people have went through. Plus. I honestly think this is getting close to the end. buds

Bravo Carrello.... Good Jobs to the Good guys. The only thing that confuses me is why he was buried at sea. I know it's probably so they couldn't make his grave a shrine or place of reverence. At least that's the only reason I can think of. He was killed no where near any water. Maybe we'll learn soon why they did that. buds -
Well, I read somewhere just the other day that Canada's dollar is at .95 to ours. I am by no way trying to state HARD FACTS, but I remember less than 10 years ago when we would cross the border we would get somewhere like $1.60 Canadian to every US $1 we traded in. I know that is just fluctuation and isn't the same thing as Iraq. What I DO KNOW (at least in my mind) LOL is that Iraq has been ruled by a tyrant for over 20 years and have not had the chance to grow and share their abundance of natural resources with the world. Even when they did, Hussain took all of the money. I have said it before, but I still believe it now. I consider Iraq a company that just opened it's doors and we have bought 'stock' in Iraq at PRE-IPO prices. Now their 'product' is their economy and being a world trader and hopefully a world leader in resources, travel and other types of trade for many years to come. Once their money is trade-able, many if us will cash our 'stocks' out at the new rate once they have figured it out and others will buy in hoping of their continued sucess. Do i think I'll make a million from a thousand? Nope, but I do think I will make a very nice return on my investment. Honestly, Iraq has nowhere else to go but UP. The tyrant had them down so long, once they see economic good times I am hoping the sky's the limit. I will also be investing in their stock market once I learn a bit more about it. I read where the banking sector could bring great returns once they get in full swing. I've rambled enough buds chuck
