chinadawg Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 After watching the speech.....I think we got a peak of the cat in the bag that almost got out. Notice how he stumbles on the 440 million while reading the teleprompter. I bet it had the .88 that would have put it at 4,400,000,000 and he suddenly realized he could not say that yet, so he dropped a zero and said 440,000,000. The US spends 5 billon a month on our military in Afghanistan and Iraq. 440,000,000 for the year would not do much. I agree, he kind of stumbled....so we can only guess he is saying some where between appx 9 cent and 89 cent..........if you have alot of dinar neither one is ugly..........just one is better than the other...........but hey i'm not greedy. I have been in this game for roughly 6 years and if there is one(1) thing I have learned for certain: The Iraqis say much but act little and then takes months. I sure Hope and Pray that this time will be different because of Internal Affairs over there! And if ,dolittle Maliki was still in charge I would feel 100% the way you do.............This is Abadi's first rodeo, lets watch him finish his first ride. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drj Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 You might want to go to 29 minutes and listen closely to what he says - putting . 5billion dinar, about 440million USD aside - do the math. It is 1 dinar= .088 Yup...he states it right at the 29 minute mark as you mentioned and 440 million divided by 5 billion = .088. Hopefully, if it comes out at .088, it will increase FAST with a float. After watching the speech.....I think we got a peak of the cat in the bag that almost got out.

I sincerely hope that you are correct and I am wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cashman54 Posted February 8, 2015 Report Share Posted February 8, 2015 If it does come out at .008 cents and increases with a float, I wonder if we would still have a long enough window to hold off until some of the dinar increased in value so we could cash in at increasing rateS?

laksa Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Sorry, I heard he say 5 million dinars instead of 5 billion dinars. Look at his lips and try to say out million and billion, you will understand what I meant. He stumble because he realise the script has typo error. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at his lips and try to say out million and billion, you will understand what I meant. He stumble because he realise the script has typo error. Do you realize how silly that is? 5 million dinars is not even $5,000 USD at the current rate of exchange, and it certainly wouldn't equate to 440million USD.

It is 1 dinar= .088 Yeah. You're right. He did say that and it works out to 8.8 US cents. But it sounds like a load of Huey to me. Or a mistake. Cause he also said they could'nt afford to fight off Isis and would be asking for international help. I won't be wasting any of my precious energy guessing what they are going to do until they actually do something. If you check the CBI it still says 1166. So I call BS.

moneysoon Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 He neither stumbled nor did he change anything that was printed. For one, Abadi does not have that authority??? Second they have this things planned to the T. It is what it is for now. Abadi is straight shooter in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they just want to prop up the currency by pumping people to buy more. I still believe Adabi is a big improvement over Maliki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontlop Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 It's a shame this guys speech writer doesn't know the exchange rate for the dinar to dollars It would actually be 4.4 million dollars for 5 billion dinars Not 440 million And abadi just reading his promoter doesn't catch it 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
