My son-in-law gave me 25,000 Iraqi Dinars last December. He did a tour over
there while in the Navy (go figure) and is over there right now for the
second time as an employee of a defense contractor. He thinks the
conversion may happen and we may make some money.
But.........my 25,000 Iraqi Dinars were worth 21.72 US dollars back in
January. Today it's worth $20.99. It's going the wrong way. :-)
