Question: "The difference between Kuwaiti revaluation and the Iraqi dinar - what's the difference?"
It's a completely different model...Kuwaiti got invaded. Saddam Hussain stole the printing press, the Kuwaiti version of the Treasury. Stole everything...Iraqi dinar was completely different. It was planned.
They knew the old Iraqi currency was going to collapse. We injected their economy with dollars and euros. That's when they took the old dinars off the streets and introduced the new dinar you and I have. It's a completely different model. There's no way to compare.
I think the dinar is going to revalue. I think it's great. It's a great opportunity. A lot of it has to do with its foreign currency reserves which is in the US dollar. It [Iraq's] is one of the biggest in the world.
"What is Iraq waiting for at this point [to RV]? "
No body knows...When [Senator] McCain was around those were the heavy hitters. Those were the guys I would listen to. This was nothing 'official' but these guys knew what was going on, 'you want to be in the dinar.' I have some very good friends who didn't buy it and they talked to McCain and he said you better buy this currency.
According to them, it should have happened by now. I still hang out with the same group and to this day nobody knows why Iraq has not pulled the trigger yet. What's strange is back in the day Iraq didn't talk about it that much, now they talk about it all the time. Whatever the CBI is looking at, it's starting to look like they need to be there.
Question: "Why do the [Iraqi] citizens want to keep using the dinar when the value is so low?"
Not everybody has access to the US dollar for one thing. #2 It's artificially low. A lot of Iraqi's know this. They know what's going on.
There's nothing they can do about it. That's one of the things, if you watch the parliamentary elections of Iraq one of the number one campaign promises all these guys make is we're going to add value to the dinar. They know it's artificially low. [They look around and think] we're selling more energy, the price per barrel is more, we have more customers and yet the dinar is [worthless] and we're all running around in poverty.
Question: "When it does revalue, when do we get out? How long do we wait?"
That depends on your own needs. Are you trying to get a house? Are you trying to pay off a loan? What is it because once you hit that number get out. Or if it doesn't go up to that number - Let's say you're trying to make...$250,000 and you realize the investment is only going to get you about $180,000, then get out! Diversify. Get into something else. Don't just stick around.
The only way you can answer those questions is you have to put a piece of paper down and realistically what is it that you want. You have to be realistic about it.
You can't say the first thing is I'm going to start off with a $50 million dollar mansion. Don't be stupid...Let's be a little more practical. A home over your head, debt free, for you and your family...then you can go for the big stuff. Your investments are based on that...what it is you want.
