Investors Iran??

[investorino]

According to the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research the Iranian political situation could have an opposite effect on the Iranian economy. If the Iranian economy does show signs of bouncing back maybe this is another investment opportunity with the Rial currently around 9k per $ from a previous high of around 70 per $. A $100 investment could be a $12k return if the value increases.

Dont know if the Rial is trading on forex though.

interesting reads though:

and reuters is reporting iran is resuming nuclear activities

http://today.reuters.co.uk/news/newsArticle.aspx?type=worldNews&storyID=2006-01-03T155125Z_01_MCC338409_RTRUKOC_0_UK-NUCLEAR-IRAN.xml&archived=False

so with the $18bn being the last iraq sees of US money, and troops stationed right next door, could iran be going the way of iraq?

[onenomad]

IMHO I think Iran would be different the US going there wouldnt be the same because the Russians would be more protective it would also involve the North Koreans

I was reading on a web site that if isreal interfered with Irans nuclear operations that it would take decivive action against them,wonder wot that entails.[url]www.memriv.org/default.asp this will not be good for the ME as a whole.:no:

One might want to check into the legality of investing in Iran....

I'm not sure but the sanctions from 79 could still be in effect. :rolleye03

[investorino]

cant find the Rial for sale anywhere. even on ebay there is nothing. think you might be right there uno about the legal issue.

I also suspect the Iran problem may become more of a cold war style will they/wont they standoff - it seems we were willing to take the risk with Iraq because we kinda knew it wasnt nuclear - iran is intending to become or is now nuclear capable which means a whole new ball game,

While we wait on the NID......IRR looks to be increasing in value soon.
Rial to Strengthen
"Khoshchehreh further noted that the Parliament is expected to vote for strengthening the national currency against other major currencies, stressing this move will help increase exports."

"decivive action against them" What that means in terms of military lingo,...is that any military action either pre-empted or builded on escaleted basis, will have the objective to destroy the enemy, with an initial, massive attack, which will deny the enemy with any chance to recover and counter attack.


Another thing, In my personal opinion, I personally don't care one bit about how much money I can make out of the Rial, there is absolutely no way that my values for democracy, my values to value other people human rights, and my values of co-habitating with another race who's through their veins runs blood like me, that those values be outshine by the money. ESPECIALLY when some of that money may have crossed trough the hands of some terrorist that may have funded their criminal acts on some of my fellows soldiers here in Iraq. NO WAY.....Iran is Iran no matter what....

[dannykimji]

I found the IRR on e-bay out of india 100irr for about 2dollar's

[EASYRIDER]

I found the conversion it is $1. usd = 9,122.49 RIAL This just might be the next speculation, we need to check this out in depth:huge:

[millionairetobe71]

You all can keep the Iran money..I don't want any part of it............

[TiredOfWork]

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that I won't be, or need to be, or want to be, any part of an online forum for my future investments...:lmao:

[onenomad]

No interest in Iran

[dannykimji]

Well i got a million and it all mind .

[investorino]

Well i got a million and it all mind .

at what rate?

did you manage to find a currency dealer or did you get it directly from Iran? just curious.:)

[wherbie]

The Jew's will take care of the Iranian nuclear plant....just like in 1984...

dont invest in Iran...The Jews dont have anything to loose....Iran has already called for the anniliation of Isreal...do you think they are going to sit by and wait?.....if you do.....

you dont know the jews...when your back is against the wall......you get down and dirty....

I respect your opinion and admire your stance against this evil regime, but please dont be offended by the discussion of a potential new investment. Thats the intention - just pure currency speculation - the Rial seems to be on the up from a rate of $9k to the $ and the potential is logical to be discussed on this forum.

IcarusII's post is very encouraging. All we need to do now is find out if 1. the Rial is definitely illegal, and 2. if legal, where can we find a reliable supplier?

Without getting into personal beliefs of the politics of Iran, I think the IRR currency indicator could show us a sign of what Iraq must/will do. Iran is concerned about increasing the amount of imported goods received by strengthening the currency.......Iraq is currently an import nation and will be for awhile. By strengthening the value of their dinar, more goods can come into the country cheaper. Hopefully, they will increase their purchasing power to help this part of the economy while the business climate matures.

2006 is our year........

Well, I do.
And I do for some very simple reasons.....One is that I am an american defending your way of life. (that if your are an american) so you can live and you can see your kids growing..I am the one that IF you were here, were I am, and a bullet come on your way, put MY body in between so you can live....I am that guy, that soldier. You can say that you have the benefit of not knowin what I know, so only read in the news and inside your limited knowledge of what Iran is intending to do to Iraq and the US and Israel...yes, you have that benefit because if it was the contrary, you or no one would be investing in that freaking country...

And yes, I do feel that since Iran want to take the stability out of Iraq and destroy the economy we have work so hard to build, and since is affecting MY and OUR investment with the dinar, then it should not even be an argument.


There is no money in the world that would buy out my values. Bottom line.
You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. Iran investment is not the right thing to do.:no: :no: :no: :no:

[dannykimji]

Well i to i was their right in victory north as a mp so i did fight for the right to do what i want. you where sound's like the guy in the rear with the gear .I bet you tell everone how many time's you got shot at yyour type make me sick.I fight for the right to do WHAT I WANT AS LONG AS IT DOSEN'T INTERFEAR WITH THE RIGHT'S OF OTHER'S ! even you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[investorino]

1. you state "You can say that you have the benefit of not knowin what I know" and "You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. Iran investment is not the right thing to do."

PLEASE share what you know! (if you arent breaking any laws/secrecy acts) - I for one would be extremely interested in ANY valid information on why NOT to invest in the IRR. Being on the frontline, any info you can provide would be much appreciated!

2. until you are willing to share any such information you cannot expect anyone especially those of us bold enough to speculate on the IQD to agree with your comment "you or no one would be investing in that freaking country..." Before I make any kind of Judgment, I consider all the facts. Your comment also indicates investing in Iran...I dont think anybody here is interested in investing in Iran, if I am wrong please say! I am however interested in speculating on the IRR and finding out all the facts.

3. you state "And yes, I do feel that since Iran want to take the stability out of Iraq and destroy the economy we have work so hard to build, and since is affecting MY and OUR investment with the dinar, then it should not even be an argument. " - I dont believe there is an 'argument' taking place? however for the very reason you stated affecting our dinar investment, discussion about Iran's economic influence should be encouraged if Iran is having such a dramatic influence on the progression of Iraq, NOT dismissed due to one persons moral stance against Iran's political views.

4. like I said, I respect your opinion, however you must consider that when posting a comment such as "One is that I am an american defending your way of life" you make an extreme assumption on my way of life! My way of life is irrelevant - remember there are billions of people around the world who have their own way of life, and some who do not agree Americans defend it!. Everyone has, and is entitled to their own opinion. Thats life. Accept it, move on.

If as it seems you are offended by discussion of the IRR, then simply leave it to those of us willing to discuss the possibilities of speculation, and as IcarusII mentioned - the importance of the IRR as a currency indicator. I would rather see you contribute in a positive way with any information you can provide us to help people formulate their own opinions :)

[dannykimji]

I payed 254.00 per million by the way don't you think the bad guy's have u.s. dollar's to maybe you should give them up they could have been touched by them.But not to me give it to the poor kid's in this country.THANK'S

[dannykimji]

Sorry forgot to tell you i got it on e-bay out of india ..............

[MunnyBaggs]

Anyone who invests any money in Iran right now needs to have their head examined. Where Iraq is a high risk high reward type investment, Iran is playing a lottery ticket with the highest odds against you of all lotteries combined on Earth. Any bet is better than that one. Whew........

[millionairetobe71]

Well i to i was their right in victory north as a mp so i did fight for the right to do what i want. you where sound's like the guy in the rear with the gear .I bet you tell everone how many time's you got shot at yyour type make me sick.I fight for the right to do WHAT I WANT AS LONG AS IT DOSEN'T INTERFEAR WITH THE RIGHT'S OF OTHER'S ! even you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



Sounds like another private......hey, I hope your CAB give you more points of promotions, I don't need it.


Common sense....

terrorist+support+money= 9/11
terrorist+money+support= another 9/11
Iran+terrorists+money+support= another mess

Where you think your money goes in Iran ?? to the poor? Yeah right! That is why things goes the way it goes. In one hand we say, to hell with the terrorists and we go and fight it. Then we feel so american and so powerfull. Right?

Then in the other hand YOU contemplate investing in a country that sponsors terrorism, sponsor the destabilization of another democratic emerging country, (of course you don't know that, right??)
Now, that does make me feel sick buddy....paradoxical situation....but hey, I care where my kids are going to live, and I care that your kids live in a place where they can play safe without worrying of a car bomb exploding right next to them....but, I guess you never had the opportunity to, of course, go up in the ranks and get a better in-depth understanding, beyond the news and magazines, of how the money flow in Iran sponsors different terrorist operations across the global spectrum....(probably you worry about to keep your rifle clean...good for you....I worry for things that are way beyond your level of military comprehension)

I am not telling no one here what to do and what not to...that is the members decision..but I am free to express my opinion..based on my knowledge and based on the developments in the region(which of course, includes Iran)and how that influence my decision making process, because if something interferes with my operations and something interferes with my soldiers and puts them at risk, then is my business too....mp....

[Joe D_inar]

is the dong instead of the iran rial...the dong is about $100 per mil right now..:happy64:

[BigE]

You all can keep the Iran money..I don't want any part of it............
well said, except to use in place of my montgomery wards catalog out back.

it has pictures of islamic revolutionary items....anyone know with common sense if we have to take them out....the money will have to change just like Iraq's. Therefore one would have to be there to make an exchange.

Agreed.

Iran is not an option for me.

Others may do what they want, but I actually want to enjoy my peace and prosperity TOGETHER.

You have to come up with something smarter than that.....sounds like a private....bring to the table why you should contemplate to invest in Iran Rial...why not...what are methodological issues with it?? Jeez..hold it...what methodological issues means...ok..let me re-phrase that again....

Why should invest and why you should not invest in the Rial and what would be moralistics implications based on the actual regional position of the country in relation to your values as a US soldier? and please provide with a logical answer...
