Thinking of buying some Iraqi Dinar and sitting on it until their currency is revauled? Good idea or a waste of time.

At first I laughed and made fun of the idiots that were doing that...now after reading up on it I say go ahead and do it. It's very likely that you will make a ton of money very soon.

I know you are as aggravated with this thread as the rest of us, but that's just mean.

I no longer feel bad for you.

Please put all of your investments in Dinar and take out a HELOC.

Guratanteed to go up. Zero downside risk.

The Iraqi dinar “investment” opportunity — a scam that has been around for a few years — has recently been regaining much of its former popularity.

The opportunity is pitched as a way to profit from a nearly worthless Iraqi dinar that is “sure” to appreciate in the future. The scammers promise that millions of dollars in profits are virtually guaranteed if you buy the dinars at today’s values (about 1,000 dinar to $1) and then exchange the dinars back for dollars at a later date once the dinar exchange rate has improved.

There are, however, some fundamental problems with the Iraqi dinar scam that potential buyers should be aware of before they begin investing in one of the most illiquid currency markets in the world:

When people talk about investing in the dinar, do they actually get the paper dollars or is it a fund of some sort? If it's actual paper (with Saddam's picture on the front), you might make a little money selling dinars at a flea market or something.

For some reason, I feel as though this is an investment that idiots talk about at work all the time, but no one actually invests in.
