cbisinger Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 I was talking to a lebanese business man last night, we always touch bases on dinar news as it unfolds. He has family in Iraq and heavily invested in the NID. He tells me(in his own words) they take three zeros off everything you buy, you buy a loaf of bread for, say a 1000 fils you pay only 1 fil, people are very happy. I told him, looks like the purchasing power of the dinar has went up. he said yes I'm very pleased this has happened but I am waiting for it to reach here in the USA Yes and pigs can fly. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merry1 Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 What is a fil? One thousand fils = 1 dinar it's like saying 100 pennies = 1.00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horns Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 no offense mongo...but your lebenese friend is full of fils. nothing costs 1000 fils (pre-rv) or 1 dinar in iraq? That's less than 1/10th of a penny...what could possibly be for sale at 1/10 of 1 cent???? then we have the issue of "they don't even use the fil coin in iraq YET. his story would have been much more plausible if you had said you could buy something for 1 dinar that you would have paid 1000 dinar yesterday. but in the end, it's all BS nice try Rumor Fail 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gpoki Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 Perhaps this will help explain the fils conversion Posted on OANDA site http://www.oanda.com/cgi/fxlookup/CurrencyInfo.pl?currencyCode=IQD Code = IQD Currency Name = Iraqi Dinar Country = Iraq ID Format Decimal Points = 3 Currency Regime = float dinar Major Unit = fils Minor Unit = 1000 Equivalence = fils = dinar , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now this is serious I think I want to start a new thread about this because I want to know if this could be the lop. They lop the fils and make it 1 to 1. Na some one would have thought of it by now.

zantac Posted September 8, 2011 Report Share Posted September 8, 2011 I think its all just a bit of fun Zantac. Nobody really, really believes it. First then its in the wrong forum & if the MODS were doing there jobs correctly it should have been moved long ago So let’s get some things straight then You can post the original post & get peoples hopes up & be given +s for doing so. You can make a polite joke about someone you know even though you know that they too will think its funny but you will be hammered left right & centre for it & called all the names under the sun. Its also fine to post fictitious rumours & be rewarded for it. Its also acceptable to post rumours or out right BS to pump the pumpers I am really confused at the moment of DV senior members or respected posters of the true intensions of this forum. Why is it you post something that has no relevance what so ever but you become the overnight hero. You post informative or educational information with links but you then become the village idiot overnight You make up some complete out of this world story & within 20 minutes you become a GURU I think its time for me to just read this forum & forget to add any comments in the future. I wish you all well with your investment but I can guarantee the same old same old Gurus, senior members & MODS will still be here on the 1st of January 2012, with a rate date for the next & the next dates throughout 2012 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a rumor that Mongo decided to share with us. My god there are sooo many others within here that never deserved any merit at all but did. Mongo is not a guru and never ******* said he was. If he had sent you a private message and said, it was just a joke dude, then okay I'm wrong. Just speaking my worn mind over all of this. I'm gonna be one happy guy one day when we actually see an RV and you know what? I'll bet you a trip to El Paso we'll see an RV before the year's out!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFlorida Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 After being here for a while, you automatically stop believing anything and everything you read. At this point of the ride the only person to believe is Adam, and the CBI. Anyone that thinks out side this small box, well continue to follow Okie and rest of the gang. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stmbulldogs Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Here is a logical question for you. Say you live in Iraq and have a 25k note in your possession. Say your brother has an account in the cbi with 25k dinar in it. How are they going to give the same purchasing power to both people with a lop or dual currency? It is completely impossible. That would be punishing the people that carry notes instead of having an account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
