With 200000 dinars as the limit, the rate is pretty much at .05 cents. When i travel to the Philippines i cant bring more than 10000 dollars, and if i do, i have to fill out a form. Now coming from the Philippines, i cannot bring more than the equivalent of that amount (10000dollars) which is equivalent to no more than 500000 thousand pesos. Rate for 1 dollar to philippines pesos is 51plus pesos. This is controlling the money in n out of the country. Totally agree with LB. As for the rate, it is what it is...0.05 cents...but that is not to say that it will stay that way. If it is allow to float, the rate should increase...and it is not going to take long for it to go up. I know some people are not happy with that rate and some are. As for the post i made bout by tuesday being happy, if not happiest, that was actually directed to someone. If 0.05 cents is not gonna be make u happy, you can wait it out till it gets to where u are comfortable enough for u to cash in. Let us just wait and see for more news. Pray some more. Later.

Navira,

 

What about this post on 8/17/17:

 

..... went to the park with my father and to walk our dog...also did a prayer there. As we were on our way to buy siopao, a voice (Lord) said to me that a man will approach to me and ask for a change. I got to the store and bought some siopaos for me n my father. When i exited out, a man approached to me and ask for some change. I gave him a dollar...i was left with 62 cents from the change i got from buying siopaos. Now, get this, i dont know if u had seen my post bout dinar being 1.69usd/dinar. This is saying to me that a dinar will have that rate of 1.62/.69. The bank will offer 69 cents..and they(banks)get to keep the dollar. Later

I am having questionable thoughts here about all of this, but then that's just me.

05. cents would be a great start.  We haven't seen anything in 14 years!  It would most likely go up from there quickly as there would be more purchasing of the currency due to speculation of it further increasing in value.  Just my .05 cents.

Navira,

 

You posted this on the 27th.  " By tuesday u will have been happy, if not happiest,. Later for now."

 

What happened? I'm not all that happy today.

I think he spoke from his heart, I'm not not happy. I'm grateful he added something to the discussion.
