    There's been a scam going on since late 2011.. about Vietnam and Iraq. So apparently (this could be true or not) that 202 country's have agreed to have there currency's revalued based upon there assets once the world currency reset happens. People have been buying ten's and thousands of Iraq Dinar and Vietnam Dong. Vietnam is the 2nd highest rice producer, so a great asset there and of course iraq owns billion's of barrels of oil. What these people are hoping is that the currency's for these country's goes up back to its original, iraq's currency was trading at $3.25 and now with 1 Australian dollar you can buy 10000 dinar. So the way it works is.. every 200,000 dinar you buy which is about 20-40 buck's your going to make 325000 dollars in return, same with Dong. Dong is trading at 20000 dong for 1 dollar.


    For a day I believed in this.. but im just now thinking, what if its true and im missing the boat here.. but what if it's a scam? lol

    how much have you lost on metal? (assuming you were to cash in now)
    probably great deal more than $20

    I guess I could always just exchange it back to dollars or a fraction of it.

    This has been going on for ages and is based on what happened with kuwait (very different situation), its total garbage. Iraq is a mess and will be for a very long time, despite this the average Iraqi can also afford to buy $20 US worth of currency, do you think that all of the sudden every Iraqi who owns $20 is going to be a millionaire. If a currency revaluation happened it would be old dinar/ dong traded for new dinar/ dong i.e. 10000 old dinar for 1 new dinar.

    or just give it to a homeless person, a brown envelope full of monies, and tell them they have to take it to a currency exchange place, they will be SO STOKED to have 20 bucks.
    a few times i've given my pocket coin away to homeless people. they are always so stoked.. (apart from one dude, who i woke up at 4:30 am after leaving a club) he was sleeping in a doorway, and i was outrageously drunk, feeling generous.
    20 bucks is 20 bucks. who cares, i have spent more on a jar of nice honey. :p
    where do i go to partake in this scam? i want fist fulls of worthless money!!

    And I have some priceless meteor fragments that landed in my garden. Get them while they're hot.
