larrykn says():I feel people aren’t thinking of the cost to cash out, that might surprise people
Woodywoodpecker says():lol
clay says to larrykn():what do u mean
clay says to larrykn():the bank fees?
larrykn says():I’ve heard they can charge up to 18 to 20 %
clay says to larrykn():no way
larrykn says():for exchange
clay says to larrykn():more like 2% Ive heard
clay says to larrykn():if they want your business
larrykn says():your right I would stay away from anyone that want even 10%
larrykn says():I feel 1 to 2 % is a good amount to just exchange
Society says to larrykn():If you can get 1%, I will want to know where…….for example, currently Travelex charges 1,000 USD for 820 Euro and the current rate is 1,000 to 893Euro for a spread of 8.17%
Elane says():hmmm good to know Society.. thanks
larrykn says to Society():I agree but I also feel when you talking millions they will make a deal
clay says to Society():Â with millions at stake dont think it will be high
Society says to larrykn():Ali with DT always said that no bank would be able to compete…..he boasted he would charge $50 per million
clay says to Society():I remember but hes gone now
Society says to larrykn():It may be why he was forced out as that would keep IQD exchanged from the UST
larrykn says to Society():he was forced out because he did those reserves
Society says to larrykn():Ultimately, I will ask my bank to meet (or beat) the best deal I can find as I would prefer to just deal with them…..however, at 1-1, every 1% is $10,000 per million or $40,000 at 4-1
Society says to larrykn():I don’t think that is true……
Society says to larrykn():Reserves have yet to found to be illegal and they are certainly not unlawful
larrykn says to Society():I agree but I’ll be checking on our dice list first to see where the best deal is at
Society says to larrykn():Agree on checking list
Society says to larrykn():If reserves were illegal, Sterling prosecution would be over instead of indefinitely on hold
larrykn says to Society():the FBI closed them down because the were doing the reseves on the currency which is illegal
Society says to larrykn():Again, the reserves have yet to be proved illegal
bubbles says to larrykn():(y)
Society says to larrykn():DC plead guilty because the were selling reserves on currency they didn’t possess……that was fraud…..you can’t sell something you don’t have
larrykn says to Society():I’m not argueing with you but there has to be something about those reserves for the FBI to close down those sites
Okie Dinar says to clay():(})
Society says to larrykn():According to dinarland only
bubbles says():The way I read/understood it they didnt have enough to pay if they needed to. They were takeing money for reserves and if they had to pay they didnt have it.
Society says to larrykn():I believe I will get my reserves from Sterling before it is all over…..or, the US as the Supreme court states if te US confiscates property they must pay for it
Society says to bubbles():Who are you talking about, DC or Sterling???
bubbles says():I wish I get my reserves but I dont see that happening. I dont think you will even get your money back it is gone.
bubbles says():Sterling  bubbles says():actually both
Society says to bubbles():If true, Sterling prosecution would be over
bubbles says not that simple
Society says to bubbles():True as it relates to DC but Sterling maintained in the neighborhood of 9Bil IQD to cover reserves….
bubbles says():It was said they didnt
Society says to bubbles():By whom??? Not the government prosecutors as of yet related to Sterling
Society says to bubbles(Â Only dinarland speculation
bubbles says():I didnt say the article. But it did say they didnt have the reserves
Society says to bubbles():The government is holding in the neighborhood of 8.7 billion IQD of Sterlings……very consistent with their position of maintaining 9 bil
Okie Dinar says to bubbles():GA Bubbles! Hope your having a great day today 🙂
Society says to bubbles():Yes…..the articles have clearly said DC did not have the reserves in possession
Society says to bubbles():Clear FRAUD
Society says to bubbles():Case is over…..sentencing 10/25 ….US is preparing to pay reparations to those affected by DC’s fraud
Society says to bubbles():As long as Sterling had IQD to cover reserves, the government interfered in lawful private equitable contracts and has liability
