Got is most gracious most merciful and will not let iraqi people in deep shit for very long as their country is very damp rich with oil reserve and the people keep keep praying to god for better life. Learn from history of mankind god is very very fair and the same will goes to iraqi people to live in normal life as human regardless of religion. So be optimistic on IQD to rebound its value as before as it is backed by huge oil reserves which real and not just based on forecasting. If we dare to invest in company share which is backed by peopole money sometime less than 1mil, what the heck we are so afraid to invest something backed by billion of dollars.Everyday we are surrounded by fear factor. To marry to second wife we are afraid of first wife, to fly- high, present-audience, boss-sacking, majesty-power so…. We are left as just shift in the street. After the worst scenario, we will only lost USD1000, even we cannot guarenty will wake up tomorow morning. So my advice buy as mush as you can afford.

Sterling savings bank here in Portland Or both buys and sells dinars for account holders. They don’t have the best rates but you are assured the notes are REAL and uncirculated, not some of the wore out worthless or counterifit units you can get screwed with on line and Ebay. As of today I got, after shipping and fees, 933,500 dinars for 1000 usd. I play the lottery. 50 million to one. And these “pink tickets” dont expire in 3 days, you can keep them until you win. I am a realist. I know than tomorrow they are not going to go 1 to1. Ive heard that several times since 2003, all hype put up by the dinar dealers who are the only ones making money right now. A lot has to happen between now and when it ever gets close to 1 to 1. But just maybe Ill make the money for a hunk of beach in Sunny St Somewhere before I retire. Besides Id spend 5 bucks to see a fly fornicate, so whats a grand compared with a slim chance for a million.

The ‘Experts’ comments are rather out dated…2004, 2006. What are the more current expert opinions?

Next polling day of Iraq could be around year 2010 and please rethink why we should hold Iraqi Dinars for fun? Prime Minister of Iraq Maliki must decide soon to revalue Iraqi Dinars or else, he mightn’t be re-elected as a Prime Minister at all. Please step into his shoes to understand that he must not procrastinate further in such a computer era.

I’m an American contractor here in Iraq (Green Zone) and I work with Iraqi Nationals everyday! I’ve spoken to them about many topics! Kurds, Shiite and Sunni alike, want a better life! They want the ‘old” Iraq. They tell me that it was good in the 70’s and they dream it will return again! I believe it will! I’ve been over here for over 4 years now and I’ve followed this IQD topic on 4 different forums during that time! I’ve watched Iraq meet various goals that they had set and I’ve seen the progress first hand. Look at all the countries that are lined up; Russia, China,
France, Germany,Britain, India, Saudi, Kuwait, Jordan, and on and on! Now look at all the money that’s already been invested in Iraq. Do we honestly think Iraq will NOT be successful? Seargent Bilko, in his statement above is absolutely right! “It’s a no brainer”! Be careful with the media,. a firecracker could be set off and burn someone’s hand and they would report ,”the blast that injured one civilian”! LOL! I’ll bet my money on Iraq!
Good luck to all of you,
From the IZ in the Green Zone!!

Someone I know is in IRAQ at present. Army honorable discharged with Post Traumatic Syndromes. He bought 1 Million Dinars while in active duty around 2 years back. He paid $600 for Million and now it is already over $1000 for Million. Honestly what’s worth of $2500 if Dowjones crashed, Nasdaq dipped and so does other indexes. People loose money to investors. Enron F’ed our own USA Citizen. Enron run down few Sub-divisions with their Bankruptcy. Those CEO clumsy bastards getting paid for what lower level worker worked for. If that was in thousands would be OK but these A-Holes get paid in millions of dollars to run the company and country down. People are out of jobs, out of unemployment benefits. Wife found new husband and X-Hubby is doing hand practice (Married to his hands Righty and Lefty). If someone has $2500 – I rather suggest buy as many Dinars as possible. During WW II, Germany was even in worst condition so does Japan. Just take few moments and buy few millions and tuck it away in Pillow Case. Help yourself that you have a chance. God helps only those, who are willing to help them selves. Kuwait was in worst shape, now then 1 KD = around $3.5. Imaging if someone had bought 1 Mil KD in the days of war…….. It is too far just in 1991 and 1992 a few years back. If you were in 20s then you should not be older then 40s. Imaging you ready to retire………. It will happen – IRAQI Dinars will go up. From the October 2009, entire IRAQ will withdraw US Dollars. Commerce exchange will be done by IRAQI Dinars. A diamond is wrapped around with Coal or unshaped looks like a glass. Once it takes a shape it is worth of tons of money. Still thinking…….. USA will not let then billions go worthless. Check history before taking any decision.

I bought 100,000 dinars for $120 and plan to buy 200,000 more. All the naysayers (so-called experts) can keep telling me it’s a rotten investment. For around $300, I get the dream of turning that into $300,000 plus. Where the heck else could you get that kind of return?!!! The stock market? I don’t think so. And the crap about not being able to ever cash them in. I don’t plan on cashing mine in until 1 IQD hits 1 USD and according to articles I’ve read, supposedly then you will be able to cash them in at US banks. And if I lose it, so what….it’s $300, for gosh sakes. I’m not going to cry over $300. I would be crying, however, if I DIDN’T buy any and one dinar goes up to $1 US. I would also be kicking myself over and over and over….
