MZ: I am traveling to Miami today. I appreciate all the safe travel wishes. I will be stateside until May 11th.
MZ: On the bond side I do have a person tracking their wires. The wire did indeed initiate but the funds have not been received yet. They did get an update this morning saying it would be about a 3 day process.
MZ: Hopefully we will know more in a day or two. We are crossing our fingers. It looks like this may be underway
MZ: I will keep you all up to date as I get updates myself.
Member: 3 days for a bank wire?
MZ: That lets us know we are still under the old SWIFT system. We were told a long time ago that the initial bonds would be done under the old system…then it would reset. So I will take this as good news.
Member: The Simpsons predicted the end of the world in April. Is it the end of the fiat world???
MZ: Let’s hope it’s the end of the fiat world.
Member: if your bond contact can track the bank wire…what does that mean for timing for us?
MZ: I don’t know. But I was always told about 3-5 days after enough of the bond s were done- that is when we went.
MZ: The money is traveling from Europe to the US for this specific bond holder.
MZ” “Secretary of state to the American press: Iraq is keen to continue security cooperation with the US” they want to deepen ties…not sever ties. This is important for their safety and stability.
MZ: ” Round of political consultations between Iraq and Switzerland in Baghdad” International!! What does a fully international country need? A fully international rate.
MZ: I hope to maintain a normal schedule while I am traveling. No whiskey and wisdom tonight and no stream tonight. We hope to have 2 podcasts tomorrow and one on Friday and Saturday AM….Morning podcasts should be normal next week.
