NOBODY knows when. Lots of people have provided this forum with hours of research, kept everyone up to date with the news, shared their thoughts and their rumors and have been in this investment for well over a year. It must be kinda disheartening for them to be asked this question over and over again and to be relying on this investment to come off in the immediate future is rather foolish as any investment is speculative. Hopefully we will all do very well out of this one, but nothing is for sure. I hope for your sake your struggles will ease but please don't depend on this one investment.

Good answer...if someone knew when it was going to revalue (it's already pegged to the dollar) you wouldn't have to ask that question, you would have already read it on this forum. All dates/rumors are speculative guesses based on information and news gathered by the many great folks on this forum. I understand/empathize with your struggle for the past year, but realize that some of us have been involved for over 3 years, and yes questions like this can sometimes get under your skin.

Hopefully soon...good luck to all!

I don't think I noticed this in any other articles, but it seems Dick Cheney is going to "the region" (Middle East??? (Iraq???)) next week...

Anybody read or hear this before....I wonder what he is going there for?
