Popular Post SWFloridaGuy Posted June 29, 2012 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 6-29-2012 CBI: The Central Bank wants Iraqis to drop the dollar in internal commercial transactions. The Central Bank has decided to remove three zeros from the dinar, a move it sees essential to strengthen local currency and tempt Iraqis to stick to it. For months, the bank has been mulling the issue but only recently it said a decision has been made and it was a matter of time to translate it into action. The knocking out of zeros will save Iraqis using massive sums of paper money in their transactions, said Saleh. Saleh, speaking in a seminar on currency organized by the High Institute of Accounting in Baghdad, assured skeptic Iraqis that the removal of zeros from the currency shall not affect your earnings, wealth, financial and transactions, financial obligations and duties. On the contrary, the Iraqi economy and Iraqi citizens were to benefit from the move. The Central Bank, awash with hard cash reserves estimated at more than $60 billion, is working hard to boost the dinar’s value against major convertible currencies. A firmer currency along with the removal of zeros has been among the bank’s priorities. But Saleh said the bank was concerned to see the economy being dollarized and one target behind the new move was to lessen dependence on the dollar in domestic transactions and dealings by Iraqis. A dollar is now worth about 1,200 dinars. Central Bank wants Iraqis to drop the dollar in internal commercial transactions. http://www.azzaman.com/english/?p=179 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is what the CBI says is gonna happen. One of these days something will happen, that will be a good day, no matter what the outcome is.

NWGUY Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 This type article hurts my brain Now this is where the lop, no lop, debates start again. This article can be read both ways, and hopefully the ongoing disputes won't get too far out of hand! Time will tell, and we are all in this together. Be positive, but stay grounded, as anything can, and probably will happen in Iraq!!! Go RV!!! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screw the dinar, we could do both. They gotta have a crafty rehab around here somewhere. We can go through withdrawls together while making arts and crafts. Grab your scissors and your glue gun and let's hit the road jack. Edited June 29, 2012 by SWFloridaGuy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that is what the CBI says is gonna happen. One of these days something will happen, that will be a good day, no matter what the outcome is. The new dinar that a RD (I really encourage folks to stop using "LOP") will produce will (at least initially) be exchanged for $0.86 USD. Isn't that 1000x higher than the current dinar? Seems like it does just what the CBI claims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope everyone can express their opinions respectively without beating a dead horse as bumper would say. Thanks SWFG again for bringing, I believe to be good, news either way you may look at it Screw the dinar, we could do both. They gotta have a crafty rehab around here somewhere.

Carrello Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) I know! I may have to go to rehab when all this is done or I, could find another hobby to obsess over. Can we share a room? Ooops! I see where SWFG has already laid a plan for rooms (he's probably more fun, but I always get a lot of chocolate). Maybe we could reserve a whole hospital wing. I think we could fill it in no time. Edited June 29, 2012 by Carrello 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
