"MR. IT GUY BANK STORY" BY MILITIAMAN, 19 FEB
Militia Man
[Mr. IT Guy Bank Story]
My brother asked [JP Morgan Wealth Manager] whether he could bypass the US dollar and exchange straight from the IQD to gold and silver and the private banker said he didn't know but he would find out and call him back.
MILITIA MAN: My understanding is that is possible...I have been told some time ago by more than one source that if the currency is traded on the FX...an international acceptable foreign exchange currency...they'll take that currency in exchange for precious metals.
My wife and I...were looking for a Chase branch that had JP Morgan Wealth Management printed on the door as well as Chase...I'm in a large metropolitan area...We found one near us...My brother took it upon himself to call the branch yesterday. He specifically asked for a private banker...My brother asked him if they exchange foreign currencies and if he was aware of the Iraqi revalue of their currency.
The private banker said yes he was and that they would be exchanging at that location...and names and numbers he's taking will get priority over anybody else that calls or walks in after the revalue..
As soon as it hits Forex he's going to start making phone calls...He told my brother they were expecting a number of people to be coming in and were preparing for that, a bunch of new people with wealth is...exactly what he told my brother...They're planning on having police officers available at the location for those customs that are planning on leaving the establishment with large sums of cash...
MILITIA MAN: ...Is it a coincidence that this expert came out tonight and talked about deletion of the zeros? We're going to find out. It's pretty interesting stuff.
