Pitcher Posted April 24, 2018 Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 We need to warn the Iraqi people to not get a credit card unless they plan on paying them off every month. If a college kid can’t use a card responsibly what do you think an Iraqi citizen will do. Free Money, try to find me suckers. On second thought maybe we should warn Visa 7 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris2028 Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 I just had this thought. The statement made by the Governor really was bold to say the least. Could Iraq's currency really become the highest ever in the M/E? I often wonder if we are being conservative with what we think it may end up at but I don't recall ever seeing any companies/organizations and banks, lining up to get into other countries like they are trying to get into Iraq. I recall Laid Back saying quite often how much more rich Iraq is in resources etc, than any other country over there. I may just be thinking out loud on this one. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
