CaptainConrad Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 If my profit is 1-3 times what I have into it; I will gladly take it. It's not realistic to expect millions from an investment like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sil2004 Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 You cannot just remove the face value of a note, no one can, you can only change the fractional exchange rate and that changes the purchasing power of the note. If you were going to do this why would you have printed 1,5,10, and 25 dinar notes. No lop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrishaMarie Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 "...If the rebase decision is taken it means a current 25,000 Iraqi dinar banknote will become IQD25, and a dollar will equal only 1.17 dinars. ..."This statement makes sense IF they RV FIRST then rebase later. If not, then you would have to believe any Iraqi with money (25000 notes) will loose, and those with the lower denoms will gain?!?! Another way to look at it is that the wealthy Iraqis, politicians, etc. will loose their fortunes. NO WAY. This is either completely smoke and mirrors or the RV will precede the rebase with time to cash in or exchange for the lower demons! No way it will happen so that up is down and down is up.

ronscarpa Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 http://en.aswataliraq.info/?p=128562Omitting zeros currency strategic project – CBIMarch 15, 2010 - 10:51:36BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Omitting zeros from Iraqi currency is a strategic project that has been implemented by Iraqi currency policy since 2007, Central Bank of Iraq (CBI) said on Monday.“The project came after deep studies and discussions,” the CBI said in a release received by Aswat al-Iraq news agency.It said that the process aims at redesign and reform Iraqi currency system relying on public and security circumstances.“The project will not affect the state’s commitments,” the statement said. MH (P) /SSQman,Like you - I'm questioning this article. My question is WHY is the CBI making such an obtuse statement again, without further elaboration. It brings confusion to us, but might be totally understood by the Iraqis. They are cooking something up - but it's not for us to know yet...! It can be viewed two ways with a measure of support for both arguments. One we like - one we don't. Only time will tell. All with a grain of salt - IMHO.RON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkjk Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 I think it is funny how we see these contradicting articles.

antfuzz Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 The first article posted, which by the way did not have a link is nearly identical to one posted in 2008 and was also written by the same person.Link to Chief V article from 2008 http://dinarmirah.blogspot.com/2008/...nar-early.htmlUnless there are more articles stating the same information I would not put much value on this article.

Den56 Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Hey Guys . . . .This is NOT a LOP . . . .IT is GREAT NEWS !!!!!!It clearly states that "IF" they drop the 3 zeros, 1 USD will then equal 1.17 Dinars INSTEAD of 1170 !!!! Without any other adjustments, and this is the "big ? mark" . . . . then 1 Dinar would equal $0.8547 !!!!!!!!!Dennis S.B.A. EconomicsMiddlebury College Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainJack Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 Thanks for the math Dennis!Folks, we are not going to get to exchange at $1, $2, or $3 + right out of the gate. It MAY get to that point at some point down the road, but its not monopoly money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nrwst Posted March 15, 2010 Report Share Posted March 15, 2010 If as stated 1 USD will = 1.17 Dinar, then the reverse would be $.85 USD to 1 dinar. If this is correct, we are headed in the right direction. Now they just need to get it done. If I am incorrect in my math, please let me know.
