I actually thought this was a joke site when I first came across it.

http://www.iraqidinarinvestments.com/

Hmm I`ve heard about investing in certain `solid` currencies, but.....the Iraqi Dinar??

What do you think?

This is a booming business actually which started late last year. A lot of websites have now sprouted, purporting to sell iraqi dinar which is supposedly expected to appreciate in the newxt few years.

Although what they claim us possible, that a slight appreciation in the value would mean big profits to an investor, one has to understand the dynamics of currency fluctuations. there are good resources on the net explaining why this iraqi dinar boom may not actually be what these websites hype it to be.

That exactly was the source I was referring to. I read that while searching for some information about the Dinar craze and the article provides good information about investing in the dinar.

Interesting,

With all that has happened over the past few months, this Iraqi Investment looks like a sure thing, both short term, mid and long term. Very rare to be in a postion like this to turn peanuts into millions. (g)

Good luck to all, Mike

Investing in a country's currency is tantamount to investing in that country's economy as a whole, not in any single commodity. Investing in the Iraq Dinar is not the same as investing in Iraq's oil.


... and other content found at the above link; worthwhile read for anyone considering this investment.

Interesting,

No HYIP scams with currency investment, so if you have a Chase Bank in your town, just exchange for the new dinar without concern for rip off HYIP deals, plus they will exchange them back to U.S. dollars.

Good luck to all, Mike

mmmh buying iraqi dinar can be a good investment over longterm but..it's not sure the irai dinar value will raise and I don't think a specific online opportunity is the best way to buy / sell any currency..

share your views about this admin plz

cheers



Posted by: golddust

I share both your concerns, the second moreover the first. (If Iraq is to succeed, it will need currency of some value, and it can only go up).
Do you have other ideas for methods the dinar can be circulated, if not by the current online opps that exist?

Interesting,

Like any investment, it takes research and due diligence, but given the fact that Chase and several other NA banks have been exchanging for months, there is no doubt there is little risk now. When I first started investing in currency was with Kuwaiti dinar back in 1991 when Saddam destroyed oil production, so whenever I hear, it cannot happen, don't listen, they said the same thing about Kuwaiti dinar, it will never recover.

As to Iraqi dinar, it too was destroyed by Saddam, ironic, isn't it? (g) He destroyed so many peoples lives and living that he will go down in history as one of the worst tirants ever. The Iraqi dinar is a unique once in a lifetime opportunity, and one that allows everyone to invest in for as little as a couple bucks could easily turn into hundreds, and this is indeed rare since most investments require much more of a committment.

Anyone who is fed up with all the HYPE on HYIP's should see this as the best alternative out there. I research thousands of deals, and this is truly a rare opportunity to make up what most have lost with other online deals. This is about as legitimate as it gets, so stop in at your Chase bank and order a few thousand dinar. The worst case is you lose transaction fees to exchange back to dollar, so as you can see, very little risk, and huge upside potential.

Good luck to all, Mike

Are you recommending then that the best place to exchange dollars for dinars is a Chase or other NA Bank?

I thought I`d move this thread over to here, since this is more in keeping with the topic.

I checked the link out, and it`s still up and running. http://www.iraqidinarinvestments.com/

To be honest I`m (pleasantly) surprised that Iraqi dinars are still being talked about so much. So, is there something to it? Are they worth investing in? How does the value now compare with say 5 years ago?



Posted by: golddust

There doesn't seem to be much chatter about the dinar lately, so I don't think there has been much change in the value. It was going upward for a while.

Quote:
The major risk (to dinars) is that Iraq will remain unstable and unable to produce sufficient oil to create a economy capable of economic growth. A stagnant Iraqi economy will not allow the Iraqi Dinar to have value on the world market.
Another significant risk is the problem of inflation within Iraq reducing the value of the Dinar by pushing volumes of Dinar into the market to purchase needed imports.


However the write down/off of Iraqi debt is what many have been waiting for to see the value of the dinar increase and based on this action , it seems like an indication this will happen soon:
Quote:
Iraq signed an agreement to protect investors from arbitrary actions

Iraqi Finance Minister, Baqir Jabr Zubaidi, announced that Iraq signed an agreement on Saturday (10/20/07) with the International Agency for Protecting Investment by which the World Bank will allocate $ 17 billion to protect investors in Iraq from any possible arbitrary action.

Al-Zubaidi added that he ended preparations with the International Monetary Fund to make a draft convention according to which Iraq is committed to a number of conditions relating to the financial and banking policies in return for writing off most of Iraq's debt by the Fund, pointing out that the agreement will be signed as final with the end of the current year.

The Iraqi minister admitted the state of administrative and financial corruption involving all levels of the State, but reduced the importance of the accusations made by the former Chairman of the Integrity Committee, Judge Radi Hamza Al-Radi, pointing out that most of the issues raised recently concern governments that preceded the government of Nuri al-Maliki, and attributed the causes to the incomplete control authorities at the time.

Iraqi Minister of Finance confirmed that the United States considers concluding commercial, economic and investment agreements by the Iraqi government is an internal Iraqi affair. He explained that the project of building an electrical station in Sadr City was won by Iran because of the better specifications provided by the Iranian side.

Minister Baqir Al-Zubaidi criticized the delay in supplying the Iraqi armed forces with American weapons by the United States, within a deal financed almost a year ago; it was reported that the American Defense Minister Robert Gates said that the reasons for the delay in the arrival of weapons to Iraq are due to what he described as bureaucratic factors.

So it looks like those who got in at the groundfloor may well have a smile on their faces now. Good on them! It`s nice when investing risks pay off.

Actually the dinar value is still about .01/$1. So $100 = ~ 100,000 dinar which represents an excellent investment, possibility. No place to go but up.
On the other hand, many are of the opinion it is still a very risky investment choice. Where there is opportunity, there is always risk.
