Here is some thing I ran into and thought it would give you all a little chuckle.

Plus if you look at denominational structures and various wealth indicators Iraq slots much more closely with their OPEC members Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Qatar than they do with Jordan, Oman, or Kuwait. The denominational structures from TABLE B are as follows:

Kuwait 1KD = 3.4 USD (1 KD = 1,000 Fils) 12 Denominations:
Notes: KD 20, 10, 5, 1 Fils 500, 250
Coins: Fils 100, 50, 20, 10, 5, 1

Bahrain 1BD = 2.7 USD (1 BD = 1,000 Fils) 9 Denominations:
Notes: BD 20, 10, 5, 1 Fils 500
Coins: Fils 100, 50, 25, 10

Oman 1 ORial = 2.6 USD (1 OMR = 1,000 Baiza) 13 Denominations:
Notes: OMR 50, 20, 10, 5, 1 Bai 500, 250, 200, 100
Coins: Bai 50, 25, 10, 5

Now let's look at the Iraqi current IQD denominations:

Iraq 1 IQD = .0007 USD 9 Denominations:
Notes: IQD 25,000, 10,000, 5,000, 1,000, 500, 250, 50
Coins: IQD 100, 25

Now let's look at the Munny Model target Middle East countries value denominations:

Saudi Arabia 1 SAR = .27 USD (1 SAR =100 Halala) 15 Denominations:
Notes: SAR 500, 200, 100, 50, 20, 10, 5, 1
Coins: Halala 50, 25, 10 Qurush 10, 5, 2, 1 (5 Halala = 20 Qurush)

Qatar 1 QR = .27 USD (1 QR =100 Dirams) 11 Denominations 8 of which are in real circulation:
Notes: QAR 500,100,50, 10, 5, 1
Coins: Dirams 50, 25….. {10, 5, 1 rare}

UAE 1 Dirham = .27 USD (1 AED = 100 Fils) 13 Denominations 11 of which are in real circulation:
Notes: 1000, 500, 200, 100, 50, 20, 10, 5
Coins: AED 1 Fils 50, 25…. {10, 5 rare}

So if Iraq were to "value out" the top 25K, 10K, 5K, and 1K notes and add say a 10, 5, and 1 IQD denominations, which denominal structure would they more closely resemble??? What were Tant, the CBI, the MOF, the IMF, and Shabibi thinking when they sent up the new IQD??? Did they randomly pick the denominational values?? Nope. No way. They purposely picked the current denominations and values for a specific reason. There is a built in value increase allowed by the manner in which they set it up. The 25K and 10K are clearly slated to be bank exchange notes only in the future.

Are any of the other banks above on the FOREX?

Imagine how much this dude would have at $1.49 or $3.22

Now that is not that long of a wait. ( I think it will not take that long ) but if it does

I am in for the long hull. I was going to sit on my stack for 5 years. So I have four more to go!!! WOOOT

Phew! that is some stash. I wish my stash was that big

The embers glowed softly, and in their dim light,
I gazed round the room and I cherished the sight.
My wife was asleep, her head on my chest,
My daughter beside me, angelic in rest.
Outside the snow fell, a blanket of white,
Transforming the yard to a winter delight.
The sparkling lights in the tree I believe,
Completed the magic that was Christmas Eve.
My eyelids were heavy, my breathing was deep,
Secure and surrounded by love I would sleep.
In perfect contentment, or so it would seem,
So I slumbered, perhaps I started to dream.

The sound wasn't loud, and it wasn't too near,
But I opened my eyes when it tickled my ear.
Perhaps just a cough, I didn't quite know, Then the
sure sound of footsteps outside in the snow.
My soul gave a tremble, I struggled to hear,
And I crept to the door just to see who was near.
Standing out in the cold and the dark of the night,
A lone figure stood, his face weary and tight.

A soldier, I puzzled, some twenty years old,
Perhaps a Marine, huddled here in the cold.
Alone in the dark, he looked up and smiled,
Standing watch over me, and my wife and my child.
"What are you doing?" I asked without fear,
"Come in this moment, it's freezing out here!
Put down your pack, brush the snow from your sleeve,
You should be at home on a cold Christmas Eve!"

For barely a moment I saw his eyes shift,
Away from the cold and the snow blown in drifts..
To the window that danced with a warm fire's light
Then he sighed and he said "Its really all right,
I'm out here by choice. I'm here every night."

"It's my duty to stand at the front of the line,
That separates you from the darkest of times.
No one had to ask or beg or implore me,
I'm proud to stand here like my fathers before me.
My Gramps died at 'Pearl on a day in December,"
Then he sighed, "That's a Christmas 'Gram always remembers."
My dad stood his watch in the jungles of 'Nam',
And now it is my turn and so, here I am.
I've not seen my own son in more than a while,
But my wife sends me pictures, he's sure got her smile.

Then he bent and he carefully pulled from his bag,
The red, white, and blue... an American flag.
I can live through the cold and the being alone,
Away from my family, my house and my home.
I can stand at my post through the rain and the sleet,
I can sleep in a foxhole with little to eat.
I can carry the weight of killing another,
Or lay down my life with my sister and brother..
Who stand at the front against any and all,
To ensure for all time that this flag will not fall."

"So go back inside," he said, "harbor no fright,
Your family is waiting and I'll be all right."
"But isn't there something I can do, at the least,
"Give you money," I asked, "or prepare you a feast?
It seems all too little for all that you've done,
For being away from your wife and your son."
Then his eye welled a tear that held no regret,
"Just tell us you love us, and never forget.
To fight for our rights back at home while we're gone,
To stand your own watch, no matter how long.
For when we come home, either standing or dead,
To know you remember we fought and we bled.
Is payment enough, and with that we will trust,
That we mattered to you as you mattered to us."

PLEASE, Would you do me the kind favor of sending this to as many people as you can? Christmas will be coming soon and some credit is due to our U.S.service men and women for our being able to celebrate these festivities. Let's try in this small way to pay a tiny bit of what we owe. Make peoplestop and think of our heroes, living and dead, who sacrificed themselves for us.

Just a nice poem I thought you all might enjoy! And please do remember all of our men and women in uniform here and abroad this Holiday Season!

Appears to resemble Putin and if he gets his way with that length...he may link up with the Great Wall of China... now, wouldn't that be something again... The Chinese and The Russians have the cool runnings on the Middle East by then!!


Nice pic there to help those planning to cash in too, however smallish their start up is!


YB. - cheers to all trying to climb over that pile...
