  1. bought my dinars in Jan 2005 still see not much is going on
  2. Lets hope Iraq turns into Santa Claus and does something positive with the Dinar this coming month (not holding my breath). I paid $780 per million about 12 years ago. It would be nice to finally make a profit before these bills disintegrate into dust LOL. Thanks Adam

    A new day

    I need to be the first to get this out. My friend who is a very close friend to President Elect Trump has knowledge who will be in President Trump's cabinet. He told my friend that his first agenda as soon as he gets in office is to make Iraq RV at 1 to 1. Treat as Rumor.
  4. I take back what I said, gonna hold on to my dinars but he still wants to sell a million on his for $800 uncirculated 25K notes
  5. my friend who needs money very badly wants to sell his 1 million dinar now for $800. I told him I will kick in another million dinar at the same price to help him. reply back if anyone is interested. 25K notes and uncirculated.
  6. 1 million dinar for $900. uncirculated 25K notes. might be willing to negotiate for the right deal
  7. Selling 1,000,000 dinar for $900 Let me know if you are interested.
  8. Very sorry to hear this, my blessings to her and her family
  9. Just curious Umbertino. Is it intentional that most of your news topics started of the negative nature are usually about the US and UK or is it just a coincidence? I guess nothing of a negative nature happens in Italy. I'm sure it's just a coincidence and you don't go out of your way to find these topics.
  10. I guess we cant wear a hat with the American Flag on it also. Betsy Ross's husband owned slaves at the time.
  11. I was on Medic's private site with Breitling back around 2008 or 2009. Years get all mixed together when the dinar is involved. The guy would make me laugh. Anytime someone disagreed with him he acted like a little baby and started ranting. He has no more insight to what's gonna happen then anyone else. Don't get too caught up in this guy. He's just another guy who's been saying its gonna happen soon. At least he never said it was gonna come out at an outrageous number like some of the other gurus. I'll give him as much credit as would Frank which is none. Like all the other gurus he has an ego and likes to be heard.
  12. To respond to your questions 1) We are still in a recession after him being in office for 8 years 2) If you actually believe the jobless reports on the news then you have to change the channel 3) Still at war 4) not worth commenting on
  13. millionaire in training, I agree with you. living in NY you can really getting tired of hearing about Trump over the past few decades. I didn't take him very serious till a couple of years ago when he began addressing a lot of our problems with ideas how to fix them. I agree with you in that he didn't come off very well in his speech when he announced his running for the Presidency. He needs to hire some people to help him in that area. I do like how blunt he is but at the same time I really don't need to hear about how rich he is unless he would give me a loan. At the same time I do agree with his stance on many of the issues. It's too early for me to pick a candidate at this time. I do think we need someone out of the box to shake up this country and get it back on track. We don't need to keep bringing out these tired candidates who have already sold out for their own agendas. His running could just be a publicity stunt to promote himself for his own agenda. Time will tell. At the very least he has enough listeners in this country that it may shake things up and get more people asking questions instead of going through life with blinders on.
  14. I predict the candidate with the most strings attached to him or her
  15. Being in this investment for over 10 years I learned not to bother with the rumor section. But when I saw the headline I just had to take a peak inside. At least the White House is a new twist when it comes to rumors. LOL
  16. I almost threw up when I read the headline. Good thing I kept reading. now I feel better.
  17. There will always be a radical group in Iraq. Isis is the last thing we need to concern ourselves with regarding the rv
  18. When I bought my dinars I figured it would take about 10 years. I was hoping for it to go to .05 to .10. Just passed my 10th year and I was wrong on both. Guess I have to wait another 10 years and hope for .005 to .01 LOL
  19. End of the line for the lead bullet? Regulations, bans force switch to 'green' ammo By Perry Chiaramonte Published December 21, 2013FoxNews.com The Army's new round replaces the current M855 5.56mm cartridge that has been used by U.S. troops since the early 1980s. The Army claims the M855A1 is more dependable, a more consistent performer, improves accuracy, moves faster. (U.S. Army) When the last bullet-producing lead smelter closes its doors on Dec. 31, it will mark a major victory for those who say lead-based ammunition pollutes the environment, but others warn 'green' bullets will cost more, drive up copper prices and do little to help conservation. The bid to ban lead bullets, seen by some as harmful to the environment, started slowly more than a decade ago. But with two dozen states, including California, banning bullets made of the soft, heavy metal, the lead bullet's epitaph was already being written when the federal government finished it off. First, the military announced plans to phase out lead bullets by 2018. "Whatever the EPA's motivation when creating the new lead air quality standard, increasingly restrictive regulation of lead is likely to affect the production and cost of traditional ammunition." - National Rifle Association Then the federal Environmental Protection Agency, citing emissions, ordered the shutdown of the Doe Run company's lead smelter in Herculaneum, Mo., by year's end. Whether by state or federal regulation, or by market forces, lead bullets will be all but phased out within a few years in favor of so-called green bullets, experts say. While many believe that this will help the environment by keeping lead from contaminating groundwater, others say switching to copper-based bullets will cost hunters and sportsmen more and have little effect on the environment. "Whatever the EPA's motivation when creating the new lead air quality standard, increasingly restrictive regulation of lead is likely to affect the production and cost of traditional ammunition," the National Rifle Association said in a statement Critics of lead bullets say that in addition to lead finding its way into the water supply and food chain, people who handle ammunition have been found to have elevated levels of lead in their blood. Lead poisoning harms organs and tissues and can result in brain damage. "Switching to nontoxic lead ammunition will save the lives of eagles, condors and thousands of other birds every year – and, importantly, will keep hunters and their families from being exposed to toxic lead," the Center for Biological Diversity said in a statement after California Gov. Jerry Brown signed into law a phaseout of lead bullets for hunting by July 2019. The Army has been researching a more environment-friendly bullet at the Picatinny Arsenal, in New Jersey, since 2010. A lead-free version of the 7.62-mm rounds fired from M-14 rifles will be issued to troops in 2014. That will follow a prior switch to a greener 5.56 mm "Enhanced Performance Round" the Army switched to in 2010.. “The EPR replaces the lead slug with a copper slug,” Lt. Col. Phil Clark, product manager for small-caliber ammunition at Picatinny, told the Daily Caller. “This makes the projectile environmentally friendly, while still giving soldiers the performance capabilities they need on the battlefield.” The army has projected that use of green bullets for small-round ammunition could eliminate the purchase of nearly 4,000 metric tons of lead between now and 2018. Jim Yardley a retired financial controller and blogger for americanthinker.com, estimated it would cost $18,431,000 to replace the lead with copper. “Nearly $20 million, not to improve the effectiveness of the ammunition used by our troops, but to protect the environment,” Yardley wrote. In 2010, Doe Run settled with the EPA and state regulators for $65 million and a pledge to close the 120-year-old smelter by year's end. Doe Run General Manager Gary Hughes said the company tried to bring its smelter into compliance so it could continue to produce lead products, but abandoned plans in 2012 due to federal regulations. "We hoped to be building another such plant by now; however, constructing a full-scale plant, given other regulatory compliance spending requirements, puts our company at financial risk," he said. It is unclear if another company will open a new lead smelter in the U.S. that can meet the more stringent air quality standards. But with the biggest buyer of ammo switching to copper-core, "green" bullets, and the number of state bans on lead bullets growing, ammunition makers are adapting. One such company is Florida-based Liberty Ammunition, which has ramped up production of green bullets by adding a second production shift. “Copper is not cheap,” said Matthew Phillips, Liberty's vice president of sales and marketing. “Luckily, we’ve managed to find a way to keep the cost down.” Copper bullets have a similar pricepoint to high-end lead bullets, but can be as much as twice the cost of lower-end lead bullets, say experts. And diverting copper for bullet manufacturing could have other unintended economic consequences, critics warn. “This will inevitably increase the cost of electronic devices that use copper," wrote Yardley."It will add to the cost of a wiring a new home, having an adverse impact on the housing industry.” “The Treasury Department already wants to discontinue the penny due to the cost of producing it. A rising cost of copper will only add impetus to that, and might encourage them to repeat the response to a copper shortage during WWII, and produce pennies from steel.” http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/12/21/end-line-for-lead-bullet-regulations-bans-force-switch-to-green-ammo/
