Popular Post easyrider Posted January 2, 2011 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 All, In one of my posts a few days ago, I said the following: Yes, I have no doubt something will happen when this all rolls out that none of us will expect. My assumption is that it will not be to our advantage. Many of you have asked what I meant by those words. From the very moment that I heard of this investment, I told my wife the following two things below. As such, this post is my explanation of the above comment, with the two thoughts below as the basis for my explanation. <P style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"> I am confident we will make money on it, but I just don’t know how much. I am sure, that despite what we’re being told, we won’t make as much money as we think we will. I went on to tell her that I felt there would be something, right before this goes down, that would change the game, and we’d get screwed out of what could have been, either partially or completely. There you have it, my raw, truthful, paranoia and skepticism abou the greedy and scheming minds of those in power who control this outcome. My thoughts are not based on fact, intel, or some sort of secret knowledge I have that you don’t. They are strictly based on my own concern that something will be different than what I hope to have happen. What could that be? Here are the speculations I have come up with in my paranoid mind over the years. Maybe many of you have had the same thoughts… Massive taxes on our investment by our own U.S. Government that take a larger-than-fair amount from the gain. IRS Audits for the whole bunch of us that will share some super-secret, hidden-in-the-fine-print description of how to deal with the IQD revaluation… If we’ve got it… then they’ll want it. Instead of Iraq doing an outright “RV” wherein we receive 1000%+ on our investment, we receive maybe a 100% or 300% return on our investment (i.e. “LOP/RV”). These are just a few examples of my own personal skepticism and paranoia about the scheming minds of those in power who don’t wish the same fate for us that they enjoy. As such, on occasion, you will read something coming from me that is a bit negative. I don’t post these particular thoughts to create panic in the minds of investors, but I am realistic, and am always open to any possible outcome, regardless of whether I personally will like it or not. This is the personally-responsible, self-sufficient, accountable side of me that OWNS what I do when I invest, thereby, not passing the “buck” to someone else for MY DECISIONS to invest in the Iraqi Dinar. You see, I don’t blame others and their words for my choices. I don’t blame the “gurus”. I don’t blame Dinar Trade or any other dealer. I don’t blame the guy who has a random fly-by post saying it will “RV tomorrow”. I assess MY finances, MY reasons, and MY goals. IF I feel comfortable that I both WANT to and CAN invest more, then I do, so long as all the other financial and goal reasons match my actions. IF they don’t, then I pass on the opportunity. You see, I too try to live by what I have preached for as long as I’ve had this site…. “Pigs get fat… Hogs get slaughtered”. I have a feeling there have been many here who chose the latter through such horrific gambles as the “Dinars on Reserve” program, wherein they’ve turned an already speculative investment into a complete, time-sensitive gamble. So, take all the above as nothing more than my honest ramblings about my own personal fears/paranoia about our investment. I’ve never pretended to be all-knowing about what will happen in the end. Though I own and run this massive site, there are many of you who are far more connected, educated, and experienced than me. As such, I am subject to the concerns and worries of any of you who read my sites’ pages. Regardless of my ramblings, lest this should cause panic in some of you, I am still holding onto what has been shared with me, that none of the above will happen, and that we’ll be blessed beyond our wildest dreams. 23 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilgrim Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 I don't know who this fella is but I could not agree more, I have in the past been called negative about this investment...I choose to call it cautious . Further more if I were in charge of the Iraqi monetary system you could bet I would lop then RV it makes perfect fiscal sense.....for Iraq. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fnbplanet Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Oh crap. Was I supposed to be hanging on every paranoid word he's uttered? I apologize. What? two or three followers freaked when he mentioned something could go wrong? Damn. blew it again. Hey. Most of us invested are NOT losing our minds. We're just waiting here impatiently, that's all. While we wait, we come here for company and solid intel. We don't really care if you spook the newbies. Meanwhile, if you don't have anything important to say, shut yer pie hole. You aren't obligated to talk just for talking's sake. 12 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneakey Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 One of my favorite posts ever. Looking at things from all angles is not negative. Planning for the worst and hoping for the best has never hurt me that I can think of. Whenever I see a post that says..."I am sick of all the Gurus and BS"....all I hear is "Why did I buy that last reserve?" I know that for me it wasn't about the $100. It was the introduction of a deadline that really ratcheted up the intensity. It's also kind of funny the way my simple little one man dream house with a view, (the one that used to keep me company at nite) has suddenly gotten another storey, a bomb shelter with a safe full of gold, and a pool with a grotto.(but now I'm just grippin over it. And white knuckled to the hilt) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOOD LUCK EASYRIDER, HOPE YOU FEEL BETTER TOMORROW Thanks i feel great. I just had tp bring this here to everyone's attention because this in fact could be true and to screw us over with taxes and what not makes sense. Now for the LOP i doubt it. I like this because it does bring into all the angels of this crazy investment but none the less I am hopeful and pray it happens sooner than later.

pops Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Sounds like what I posted a while back. I hope theres no LOP and we get 1000 times more than we get if there is one. We will probably see tomorrow or this next week or so. Big difference between new lake home and a new rod and reel. Good luck to all of us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM1977 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 I'm going with #3.. "Instead of Iraq doing an outright “RV” wherein we receive 1000%+ on our investment, we receive maybe a 100% or 300% return on our investment (i.e. “LOP/RV”). It only makes sense.. I'm not trying to be rude, or racist.. but usually people from the middle eastern descent will haggle over a few cents let alone GAZILLIONS of dollars! Why would they want to make everyone in the world rich & be the world's financial "savior"? I'm just sayn I still would much rather it be 3,000% but i am just using the gray matter between my ears that God gave me.. Please prove me wrong! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonkeyBoy Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 DD needs to quit trying to imitate guru's and just report the info as it comes in, as he started out doing. I have no idea how it helps anyone to know his opinions........which flipflop as much as any of the gurus. Just MWO. Peace! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrSC Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Personally I am patiently awaiting that special day, why worry, you worrying will not change anything!!! Please when you are at your lowest point and you are slipping into dispair remember KUWAIT. It is the perfect example of what we are waiting for, it really did RV. I also think that Kuwait RV"ed on a much lower rate for they are a much smaller country with a lot less resources!!!! Remember the devil likes to play with your heart and mind be strong in GOD'S love. Try consentrating on all those that you will help when the RV occurs. To those that much is given much is expected!! Try showing empathy for those on here that are so stressed. God's peace be with all of you.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldiering4U Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 DD is such a bi-polar wack job, he is up one second and then down the next telling us how bad things are... some place in the middle he is crying cause he had someone want to comment on a post so he closes all the posts... and if you ever catch the boob in a chat room either turn it off or jump off a cliff before he gets to the parts where he praises okie and the G.E.T. team for all their wonderful information... please don't believe this nutball (DD) he gets his info from "Higher" sources ya right, from some dude blazed out of their mind in the trailer next door to his or Okie which ever one is worse...

smee2 Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I don't care who this is, or what part he plays in the dinar picture ... his views are very close to mine. I have moments of sheer panic thinking I have really made a major mistake and then I have times when I just know it is all going to work out. It may not net as much as I thought in the beginning, listening to the views of others, but it will be a profit no matter what it comes in at. And my plans for that profit are just and fair and good and though I am not a bible thumping prophet I do believe that God works in mysterious ways ... and this is definitely a mysterious way. On balance I think this is going to be a good thing but not, perhaps, as bountiful as we are expecting. My expectations have been curbed some and I find that now I am quite content with whatever happens. It is just the waiting and the supposed intel that is never right that is driving me a bit nuts. So, thanks for the post. smee2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cec Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 no disrespect to anyone but you only get back what you put out. if you put out paranoia that's what you will receive. if you come in with negative what if that's what will be if you truly believe this is a great investment just let it be.
