Italian girl asked:


I see half a dozen questions a week about investing in the Iraq dinar. It would seem to me to be really bad proposition. Am I missing something here?

Chris asked:


I’m in the Army and recently got back from Iraq, I have some Dinars left over and was wondering if I could just take them to the bank and exchange them. Thank you.

Investing in Iraq Dinar money. Is this a scam?

commloan asked:


My friend bought $300 worth of Iraq money and says that it will be worth $250,000 once it is converted after the banks get reestablished in Iraq. Too good to be true? Or is this for real? I would think they would use new currency after the war and this is just good for toilet paper.
