Donziman Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Gypsy Girl. I feel your frustration. It's been a long ride for most of us.This is why most are holding pat. No more panic buying waiting for the special delivery on that funny colored money.Can't give up the dream but sick of the do nothing of Iraq politics.I hope something happens before the Mid east war. That would give just another excuse to push back progress. Love you guys, keep the faith. 2 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artitech Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 No new calves yet weather won’t break in Texas! Still extremely hot, the ole mama cows are breathing with their mouths open, tanks are drying up here on the old Chisholm Trail! If these pictures are real of the lower bills, this is very big news! It is one of the markers we been looking for! The next window for an RV will be the 1st qt of 2020! Roughly 3 more months! In the mean time I will be in the pasture waiting on the new calves to hit the ground. It’s my favorite time of year calves and football 🏈!!! The Cowboys are poised to win their 6th world championship and my Longhorns are #2 in a national poll. It really doesn’t get any better, I forgot to mention, artitech’s horse 🐎 got a set of new matching shoes! Now if I can just stay alive long enough to see this through, there are going to be a lot of hurting people helped!!! I hope all my DV friends have a a safe and wonderful 4th qt! Plus happy up coming Holiday season! 🤠 2 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinarham Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 If someone had said to me 15 years ago ,that this was a long term investment with a big big payout ,I would have done it . Our problem was that we thought all along that it was a "get rich quick " thing . 1 2 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your educated comments on the news out of the Iraq government and CBI give us, well some of us, a reality check concerning the progress Iraq is making towards our end goal of an RV.

We need to remember that Iraq, their currency, their banks, and their government belong to Iraqis, not us. They owe us nothing. Be thankful for the opportunity that fell at your feet at a minimal cost, a phenomenal profit, and all you had to do was sit on a computer, sit a little longer, and then sit some more.

Find people, animals causes that you could help. Do something positive for yourself. Negative comments create negative energy, and negative energy creates more negative energy. Anybody feel better after bitching about the same thing for the 67th time? Now back to your regular scheduled program. This post should be pinned. I'll add one more thing. Never even a guarantee Iraq even revalues their currency. People putting all their eggs in this "basket" (pun intended)...

Right is Right Carrello....very well said...No matter how much we get upset the bottom line it's Iraq's currency, banks, and etc. We just need to continue to be patient and wait. I for one is frustrated that it's taken this long but realize it is Iraq and just need to continue to educate myself about this investment and be prepared for when Iraq decides to pull the RV trigger..... 2 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregp Posted September 28, 2019 Report Share Posted September 28, 2019 On 9/26/2019 at 3:29 PM, Laid Back said: “The Central Bank of Iraq, the establishment of a database of the banking system {ICBS} in its branch in Erbil in a move to consolidate the main database in Baghdad and other branches. A statement to inform the Central Bank received a copy of the agency (Euphrates News) that "this bank confirmed that it is possible to carry out remittances in the system of payments (RTGS) by the banks to their accounts in the branch of Erbil and Basra directly and in real time." He pointed out that the accounting department in this bank is currently working towards linking the database with the Mosul branch and it is hoped to be completed before the end of this year.” ICBS: integrated computerized Banking System The Integrated Computerized Banking System (ICBS) is a modular banking systemowned by BML Istisharat, the software covering Branch, International and Back Office activities of a Bank. It includes Retail, Wholesale, Corporate, Trade Finance and other functions. RTGS: Real Time Gross Settlement Real-time gross settlement (RTGS) is the continuous process of settling interbank payments on an individual order basis across the books of a central bank—as opposed to netting debits with credits at the end of the day. Real-time gross settlement is generally employed for large-value interbank funds transfers. RTGS systems are increasingly used by central banks worldwide and can help minimize the risk to high-value payment settlements among financial institutions. CBI Baghdad is linked to CBI Branch in Erbil, next is the CBI Mosul Branch. To be completed before the end of the year. I don’t see an RV happening before Integrated Computerize Banking System is completed. Looking forward to 1/1/2020 Go RV Go $1:1 Agreed. But are they still running wire or cleaning the windows for final inspection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody feel better after bitching about the same thing for the 67th time? Now back to your regular scheduled program. Dear KamelKeeper, thank you for input and feedback. Six months ago I Started a Thread in The opinion section “Why I believe our wait will be longer” Today is October 01 and still no RV. I see a lot of progress in many different areas but still some work to do. We can see clearly they are moving from a closed economy to an open market economy. I believe GOI / CBI will take the rest of 2019 to complete everything needed to Be part of the international market, with an international recognized currency with real market value. Go Iraq Go open market economy Go RV Go $1:1 1 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
