“Remember” Originally posted by 30MDinar at TNT......
Remember... to CHANGE your telephone number and EMAIL address IMMEDIATELY post RV! Think about every call you have dialed in to and how your telephone number has been captured and added to a list. Well, what happens to that list? Do you want YOUR telephone number out there on a "dinar holder" "millionaire" etc. list?
Remember - your goal should be to own NOTHING personally and be judgement proof. Think assett PROTECTION. Get with someone who is a licensed professional in good standing who knows what they are doing. Look in to trusts, foundations etc.
IMPORTANT: when you exchange - make sure you do NOT agree to give the bank power of attorney over YOUR money.
Remember... an opportunity of this magnitude may NEVER happen again. The very last thing you want to do is blow this one! Be smart and triple check everything.
Dont be quick to act. Be slow and calculating. Assemble a professional team of people who know what they are doing, are licensed, in good standing to advise you what is in YOUR best interest.
Remember... when you purchase a home, dont forget about the property taxes and insurance! Be sure to calculate how much you are going to need and set it aside for how ever many years you expect to live in that home. Many have lost their homes because they didn't stop to plan properly and ended up not being able to afford the household related expenses.
Remember... one of the most powerful words in any laungage is NO. Keep this in mind when people approach you for money! Always keep in mind that it is critical for your long term wealth protection that you hold on to your money! Of course I am NOT saying you should not tithe and be charitable. Just be smart and very careful with your money so it will last!
Remember... after you get in to your new home... take an inventory of the contents - furnishings, electronic equipment, clothes etc. Anything that you would want replaced in the event of a fire or some other disaster. A great way to do it is with a VIDEO camera. Place that video in a safe desposit box. An itemized list is also highly reccommended. Be sure to keep this list up to date to include new purchases.
Remember... make sure you properly insure your new home for both REPLACEMENT value as well as contents. Always check your coverage amounts.
Remember... people with NO money always want to join forces with someone who has money. The problem is... they usually are only interested in taking your money and rarely can they offer any value.
Remember... if you plan to hire a housekeeper, gardener, nanny or anyone to do anything in or at your home... ALWAYS check references and make sure they are bonded, insured etc. You've got to think like those who would love to cheat you out of your money and stay many steps ahead of them.
Remember... to contact each of your monthly utilities providers and ask them to add a password to your account. This means they will not give out any of your personal information without getting the correct password that is on the account. This is CRITICAL. This is a very simple and basic way crooks get access to your home address.
Remember... be very AWARE of strangers and / or inviting ANYONE whom you don't really know to your home. Its easy for people to make claims - especially when their goal is to file a claim against your home owners insurance policy or against you etc.
There are PROFESSIONAL CROOKS that prey on people with money because they see you as a payday. Think about the PROFESSIONAL FALLERS who slip and fall in the grocery store and then file a lawsuit against the chain.

Private Banking Vs. Wealth Management: Not quite the same.
Private banking and wealth management are terms that overlap. However, the financial services offered through private banking and through wealth management differ slightly.
Wealth management is a broader category that involves dealing with the optimization of a client's portfolio, taking into account his aversion to, or comfort with, risk and investing assets according to his plans and financial goals.
Private banking typically refers to an envelope solution for high-net-worth-individuals(HNWIs) wherein a public or private financial institution employs staff members to offer high-net-worth clients personalized care and management of their finances.
The primary difference between private banking and wealth management is that private banking does not always deal with investing clients' assets. Private bank staff may offer clients guidance on certain investment options, but not all banks will be involved in the actual process of investing assets for their clients.
Most clients utilizing private banking services open deposit accounts of one kind or another.
Wealth management employees, including financial advisors, provide advice to clients to help them improve their financial standing and assist clients in investing assets with the goal of generating high returns. In general, private banking can extend to encompass wealth management, but wealth management firms cannot provide clients with private banking facility services.
PRIVATE BANKING
In general terms, private banking involves financial institutions that provide financial management services to HNWIs. In some instances, an individual may be able to obtain these services with assets less than $100,000, but most banks that provide private banking do not accept clients who have assets less than $500,000.
Private banking tends to be exclusive and is reserved for clients with substantial amounts of cash and other assets to be deposited into accounts and to be invested.
Private banking provides investment-related advice and aims to address the entire financial circumstances of each client. Private banking services typically aid clients in protecting and growing their assets.
Employees designated to aid each client work to provide individualized financing solutions. These employees also help clients plan and save for their retirement and structure plans for passing accumulated wealth on to family members or other indicated beneficiaries
.
There are consumer banks of every size with private banking divisions. These divisions offer considerable perks to HNWIs to obtain them as clients. Private banking clients with large accounts generally receive enviable rates and concierge-like service, guaranteeing them instant access to the employees working with their accounts.
Private banking clients never have to wait in line or use a teller for services. Anything the client needs can be done with a phone call. A private banking client can contact the lead advisor working with his account and complete just about any transaction, from cashing a check or ordering more checks to moving large sums of money from one account to another.
These perks are all part of the banking institution’s plan to benefit financially. Banks pursue wealthy clients because their business generates significant sums of money in profit for the bank, guarantees repeat business and brings in new business.
Private banking clients, specifically the ultra-wealthy, discuss the specialized and elite treatment they receive with other wealthy individuals. These are new potential clients. Often, these new potential clients are mentioned to private banking divisions by current clients. The divisions then send out invitations to potential clients and often acquire their accounts through such invitations.
Private banking divisions also find new clients through the course of completing normal lending activities. The banks can access tax returns and additional personal documents and discover other potential clients through this information. Invitations are also extended to these individuals and often private banking divisions acquire clientele by doing so.
Banks draw a line when it comes to individuals who are pursued and contacted to become potential clients, and this line rests in different places for different institutions. The mass-affluent market is the major target, meaning individuals with investable assets in excess of $250,000. Some banks set a much higher bar, targeting only those individuals who have minimum amounts of investable assets in the millions.
Clients utilizing private banking services pay for the specialized treatment they receive. The bank that wealthy clients use has a guarantee of a large pool of money, in the form of the clients' substantial checking account balances, to lend and utilize.
The bank also makes money from the steeper interest charges on larger mortgage and business loans taken out by rich clients. The real money maker for these banks is the percentage earned on assets under management (AUM), which is generally quite large with HNWIs. Charging even a very small percentage fee for services that involve huge sum
Wealth Management
Private wealth management generally involves advice and execution of investments on behalf of clients. Firms that specialize in these practices are the primary sources for clients looking to invest in a variety of funds and stocks.
Wealth management advisors also help with financial planning, manage client portfolios and perform a variety of other financial services in relation to a client’s private financing choices.
Utilizing a financial advisor for private wealth management allows the client to work with an individual educated in solving financial problems and enhancing the client’s overall financial status. These wealth management advisors also help clients achieve financial goals.
Generally, financial advisors seek to assist affluent clients with private wealth management.
The advisors seek to provide the clients with ranges of financial products and services and achieve clients' ultimate financial goals.
Private wealth management services are provided by larger corporations, such as Goldman Sachs, but they may also be provided by independent financial advisors or portfolio managers multi-licensed to offer multiple services and who focus on high-net-worth clients.
A wealth management advisor sits down one-on-one with each client and discusses goals, comfort levels with risk, and any other stipulations or restrictions the client may have in regard to the investment of his assets.
The wealth management advisor then composes an investment strategy that incorporates all information gained from the client and that allows the client to achieve his goals.
The advisor continues to manage the client’s money and utilizes investment products that coincide with the client's stipulations.
Wealth management advisors cannot always offer clients the same specialized and concierge-like services that private banking offers.
However, in most cases, these financial advisors spend a great deal of time with clients. These advisors also cannot open banking accounts for clients, but they can assist them in determining the right kind of accounts to open at the bank of the client's choosing.

New York Time Kuwait Revalues it’s Currency
NY TIMES(Kuwait RV): Published: March 25, 1991
It still has no water and little electricity or food, but Kuwait revived its banking system today, introducing a new currency......Banks reopened for the first time since Iraqi occupation forces shut them down in December.
Thousands of people lined up to exchange their old Kuwaiti dinars for crisp new ones and to withdraw a limited amount of money.....The Central Bank is canceling the value of Kuwaiti dinars that were seized from the Central Bank and put into circulation by the Iraqis.
The invalid serial numbers were posted today in front of all banks in the city....All other old dinars can be exchanged for new ones on a one-to-one rate until May 7, when the old dinars become invalid.
The new official exchange rate is 3.47 American dollars for one new Kuwaiti dinar.
From March 18, 1975 to January 4, 2003 the dinar was pegged to a weighted currency basket. From January 5, 2003 until May 20, 2007, the pegging was switched to 1 U.S. dollar = 0.29963 dinar with margins of ±3.5%.[2] The central rate translates to approximately 1 dinar = 3.33745 dollars. From June 16, 2007, the Kuwaiti dinar was re-pegged to a basket of currencies,[3] and is now worth about US$3.609 (€2.686). It is the world's highest-valued currency unit

What is Nesara???? Many sites are talking about it……here is some information
NESARA ...Forgives all credit card, mortgage, student loan and other bank debt due to illegal banking and government activities..
Information about NESARA:
Source: http://www.ashtarontheroad.com/nesara-flyer-2-8-16.html
A law was passed in the United States in March 2000 and signed into law in October of 2000. This law is called N.E.S.A.R.A. – National Economic Security and Reformation Act. All politicians and media members are under a gag order to not speak of it publicly until it is officially announced. This new law will first be enacted in the United States and eventually will be rolled out across the world. The law provides:
· Forgives all credit card, mortgage, student loan and other bank debt due to illegal banking and government activities
· Dissolves the IRS and ends all income tax
· Creates flat rate non-essential “new items only” sales tax (food, medicine and all used items will not be taxed)
· Increases benefits to senior citizens
· Returns Constitutional Law to all our courts and legal matters – re-trains all judges and attorneys in Constitutional Law
· Provides for new representational elections within Constitutional Law.
· Monitors elections and prevents illegal activities of billionaires and special interest groups
· Ends the Federal Reserve System and begins a new US Treasury bank system that follows Constitutional Law
· Creates new US Treasury currency backed by gold, silver and precious metals,ending US Government bankruptcy. This will initiate global economic reform.
· Restores financial privacy
· Ceases all aggressive US Government military action worldwide
· Leads to peace throughout the world
· Enables release of over 6,000 patents of suppressed technologies and enormous sums of money for humanitarian purposes
The provisions of the National Economic Security and Reformation Act have been composed by visionaries who wish to correct past wrongs against the people in the United States. It is supported and inspired by statesmen around the world, as well as off-world, as a vision for global peace, freedom and prosperity.

Don't Let This Happen To You~ Lotto Winner Loses it All

InvestorChick: Lotto Winner Loses It All
I had the pleasure of meeting a very charming senior in the last few weeks. It's my friends mother and this lady is in her 70's.
She won 5 million dollars in the year 2000. I saw a copy of the cheque on the fridge at her son's house. I did a double take because I've never seen a cheque that large.
Of course me being a Dinarian and riding this crazy ride along with all of the others, I have been fortunate enough over the past 5 years to have been educated by people like Tony etc and I have done my research about this kind of thing.

\InvestorChick: Lotto Winner Loses It All
I had the pleasure of meeting a very charming senior in the last few weeks. It's my friends mother and this lady is in her 70's.
She won 5 million dollars in the year 2000. I saw a copy of the cheque on the fridge at her son's house. I did a double take because I've never seen a cheque that large.
Of course me being a Dinarian and riding this crazy ride along with all of the others, I have been fortunate enough over the past 5 years to have been educated by people like Tony etc and I have done my research about this kind of thing.
All of us have been told the statistics and I do realize that all of this waiting has been hard, although the real challenge comes after our blessing arrives.
My friend told me the story of how his mother had won the lottery and how she had come to "lose it all".
I was fascinated because although we hear about it, I had never met someone in this unique situation. This is her story in a nutshell.
She won 5 million dollars and was not financially educated in any formal way. She made her decisions quickly and without professional help. Her son told me she wanted to "show them all" who she was and rub it in their face, whoever "they" are.
She gave $500,000 to her sister and then $600,000 to each son. She was down 1.7 million to start and it gets dramatically worse from there.
Her sons accepted the gift and my friend was in a not great marriage and of course since he had just received $600,000 from his mother that was not his own lotto winning or an inheritance, his wife when she divorced him was entitled to half.
The other son burned through his quickly as he also had no formal education or did not seek professional help.
My friend however did the wise thing and invested his remaining $300,000, he still has it 15 years later and it's making him money daily.
I repeat, it's invested professionally and it makes him a return daily!
This lady bought a brand new house, hired an interior designer and of course the new performance car, fully loaded. She spent 30-40 THOUSAND per month at the casino because they were "so nice to her", no kidding!
She brought her sister for company and of course her sister didn't spend any of her $500,000. She had an addiction to scratch tickets and lotto tickets even though she had already won.
She handed out $50 tips at the grocery store to the cashiers etc. She had the life she always wanted and she sure made a big splash doing it.
It didn't take long for the money to run out and her to be in a worse situation then when she won the money.
I sat and listened in sheer amazement! I gave her a ride home that night because the battery on her car was going and she didn't have the money for a new one, imagine!
Her son was taking it to be fixed the next day for her and footing the bill.
I drove her home and she went on and on about her house etc. I drove up and although it's a beautiful place it was overgrown and unkept, no money for maintenance, the neighbours must be thrilled.
She invited me in and was proud to show me all of her treasures. My heart truly went out to her as there she was and now it's all gone and the house will be going soon too.
I looked at her and gently asked if she had to do it all over, what would she do different? She looked down and thought about it, looked up at me and said she would have got some help.
Everyone was my friend, she said, until the money ran out. I wished her good night and got in my car and thanked God for that experience in person and up close.
It's real, it happens and it will happen to some of you.
I told her son about this investment and he has some currency, I know she will be looked after but it sure makes you think.
How many shots at wealth does a person generally get in their lifetime?
I'm thinking not too many.
The sad thing about it, is how much she gambled away looking for money and "the win" again.
Folks, when this blessing arrives, your ship came in and this for most of us will be the one shot you get at wealth. Don't waste it!
There are several lessons to be learned from this story.
Be wise, move with caution and be deliberate with your actions. I truly hope by sharing this story, it can help at least one person, my eyes have sure been opened!

Wealth management advisors also help with financial planning, manage client portfolios and perform a variety of other financial services in relation to a client’s private financing choices.
Utilizing a financial advisor for private wealth management allows the client to work with an individual educated in solving financial problems and enhancing the client’s overall financial status. These wealth management advisors also help clients achieve financial goals.
Generally, financial advisors seek to assist affluent clients with private wealth management.
The advisors seek to provide the clients with ranges of financial products and services and achieve clients' ultimate financial goals.
Private wealth management services are provided by larger corporations, such as Goldman Sachs, but they may also be provided by independent financial advisors or portfolio managers multi-licensed to offer multiple services and who focus on high-net-worth clients.
A wealth management advisor sits down one-on-one with each client and discusses goals, comfort levels with risk, and any other stipulations or restrictions the client may have in regard to the investment of his assets.
The wealth management advisor then composes an investment strategy that incorporates all information gained from the client and that allows the client to achieve his goals.
The advisor continues to manage the client’s money and utilizes investment products that coincide with the client's stipulations.
Wealth management advisors cannot always offer clients the same specialized and concierge-like services that private banking offers.
However, in most cases, these financial advisors spend a great deal of time with clients. These advisors also cannot open banking accounts for clients, but they can assist them in determining the right kind of accounts to open at the bank of the client's choosing.

The Location____________________
The Day of Your Appointment- Things To Do
1. Make sure you know where you are going. Arrive early so you can “get yourself together, take a deep breath”.
Do not loiter. If you are too early, stay SECURELY in the general area but not in the bank parking lot!
2. Remember to get in and get the EXCHANGE done, there a lot of other people behind you in line so be thoughtful of their time as well.
You will have time for questions at your second appointment with your new Private Banker/Wealth Manager.
3. Be discrete, be professional, and be alert and aware of your surroundings. BREATHE! Seriously consider hiring security to accompany you to your appointment or bring a trusted friend.
4. Collect business cards from everyone or take their name and phone numbers as well as the location of their regular branch office.
5. Read and Sign the NDA. If it is simple and states you cannot tell anyone except your spouse, lawyer, or CPA (These are the people that need to know how you came about your money for tax purposes) how you came about all of your new found wealth, sign it and move forward with your exchange.
Be prepared to uphold it!
If you break the terms, you could lose your newfound wealth.
If the NDA is more complex and you are not comfortable with it, simply let them know you would like to explore your options with another banking institution. They may or may not waive the NDA.
REMEMBER TO GET A COPY OF THE NDA IF YOU SIGNED IT.

Cheat Sheet for Appointment with Supplemental Information, Fleming (Rev. 5.21.2021)
The information in this document is based on the most recent information available. It is not intended to be the authority on the GCR/RV or appointment process.
It is expected that there may be changes once final instructions are received.
This information is based on exchanges/ redemptions done in the USA. Each country will have its own process and information should be available for all once notifications have been issued.
The redemption/exchange process is streamlined and will be easy and straightforward. The appointment will only be about 15-20 minutes. You will be in and out quickly.
The current understanding (and subject to change) is there will be a “Safe Web Link” or 800# sent to those who purchased currency/bonds online with a registered dealer. This would include: Banks, Travelex, Great American Coin or with the aggregating sites (example: Dinar Recaps, Dinar Chronicles et al). Currently there are approximately 2 million email addresses.
Emails should be coming from Wells Fargo, HSBC, Chase, Bank of America and possibly Fifth Third.
If you do not receive an email, the information will be posted on aggregating sites and/or with those who provide RV Intel.
If you receive an email directly, you may forward it to anyone you gifted currency and/or bonds.
If you received as a gift, you may get the email forwarded to you.
Follow the instructions provided in the email.
You may be asked to verify who you are by answering questions based on publicly available information. This process is similar to when you apply online to open a bank account or a loan.
You may be required to electronically sign an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement). Read carefully so you understand what you are agreeing to. The NDA is to protect you. Print a copy for your records and for future reference. At the appointment, you will be signing a paper copy of the NDA.
You may be given an 800# or a unique 800# to schedule an appointment. The number may be to a specific location or you will be giving your Zip Code, to be directed to the closest location.
When you call you may be asked if you have Zim, Currency or both. This is because not all locations will be able to redeem Zim. NEVER say how much you have, and they cannot legally ask.
Remember that bonds (Zim) is redeemed, and Currency is exchanged.
You are free to redeem anywhere inside the United States. You are not required to exchange in your home state. It is recommended that if you live in a small town, that you go far enough from home, so you are not recognized. This is for your safety. There are no restrictions if you want to go to another state. You cannot go to another country to exchange. If you are a US citizen living abroad, check with place of exchange on what options you have available to you.
What to bring to appointment:
2 picture IDs – driver’s license, passport, government ID or anything with your picture
2 recent utility bill statements – this verifies your address
If homeless or no permanent address explain this at appointment.
Social Security card and/or Birth certificate. These may not be necessary, but bring especially if you have no picture ID.
If you have a bank account with a Tier 1 bank (HSBC, Chase, WF, Bank of America) bring your account number and routing number (a blank check will have that info.).
If you have a trust, bring the cover and indemnification pages (notarized pages). You may bring the entire trust, but they should only need copies of those pages.
Currencies/Bonds – Separate by country and denomination, large to small, facing in same direction. Place each currency into a small plastic bag.
If you have a lot of currency, recommend you create a tally sheet of how much of each currency/bond you have.
On day of appointment dress professionally. Do not dress to a point that you are uncomfortable.
Allow yourself plenty of time. Know where you are going and where to park if in a large city/urban area. Do not use Uber or Lyft type services. You might consider hiring a professional security company for transportation if safety is a concern.
Do not share with anyone purpose of your appointment or what you are doing.
Make a list of anything that you need in the first 10 days. Do you have any emergency needs like housing or medical, etc.
If you are redeeming Zim, make a 3-6-month budget. Budget does not include existing debt. Zim proceeds will be placed into a structured payout. Structured payouts take approximately 3 months to set up. By having a budget, you can have funds available for living expenses during that 90-day window.
It is expected that close of appointment that you will receive a debit card with 1-2% of Zim proceeds. Unless you have a large amount of currency you should have access to those funds the same day or within 24-36 hours. Large currency holders may have to put a portion of their funds into a structured payout.
Rates on currencies are based on Street rate, International and Contract rate. Not all currencies have a Contract rate. You can ask if there is one. You will want to know if there are conditions for receiving the contract rate and what they are. *See supplemental information for definitions.
The Redemption Centers will have a default package. This package includes rates, fees, services and benefits/perks. The default rate will be the International rate. If this is agreeable, you simply will follow through on signing all documents.
Leave with copies of all signed documents and any business cards.
Banks are reporting that there will not be time to create a skeleton trust at appointment. If possible, set up appointment for immediately after exchange to meet with a trust attorney or Trust Co. representative to have a trust created. Be prepared to have a unique trust name picked out. Also, who your beneficiaries will be and a successor trustee (person who will take over for you should you not be able to manage duties). Trust name should not be something associated with you directly.
When you get to the actual exchange process:
They will run your currency/bonds through the DE LaRue machine. This machine counts and verifies the authenticity of your currency.
If you do not like what is being offered, you can ask if any portion is negotiable.
You may be asked what you plan to do with funds. If you are redeeming Zim, the expectation is that you would do humanitarian projects, but is not required. At end of this document is a list of projects that you can choose from to support if you wish. (No longer 80/20 requirement on the Zim)
Historically, they have been looking for the following things in projects:
i. Projects are global in nature – start local and grow outward
ii. Job creation
iii. Duration – multigenerational
iv. Improves economy and helps businesses impacted by Covid
The best way to talk about your projects is to explain a problem and then how you want to fix it. Example: Homelessness – want to build safe affordable housing.
Your project should be typed up in a 1-3-page format with bullet points. This just makes it easy for them to read. Attached at end of this document is a cover sheet for your project. A copy of your project write up will be left at Redemption Center.
If you do not like the default package (rates, fees, services and perks) you may be able to request to talk to someone about what you plan to do and why you need something different than being offered. You may be given a Safe Keeping Receipt (SKR). This is where your currency/Bonds are recorded, and you are given the SKR. You will then work with a Trust company and/ or Wealth Manager to assist with negotiations and preparing the needed information.
Discuss what fees they are charging for exchange. It may be that the fees have been calculated in the rates. It is ok to ask if you can negotiate fees. In many cases, you may be further ahead to just pay the fees. This is something you can ask about. The same is true for services and perks.
If all is agreeable, sign and get copies.
Remember that any agreements can be rescinded within 72 hours/3 days by law. You may ask if that time can be extended to allow you time to meet with professionals and to come back and renegotiate in your best interests.
You may want to open a new bank account for each currency and/or bond you are redeeming/ exchanging. These accounts will be under trust account name if you have one.
Each person will be (allegedly) given a US Treasury Account and be in the QFS.
You can take your spouse to appointment or not. You do not want to take anyone who is not familiar with this process as they may end up slowing everything down with too many questions.
Below are some questions to ask and some may not be necessary under the new QFS:
a. Do the funds from each currency/bond need to be in separate accounts?
b. What about fund protection: Does FDIC still apply, or do I need a Lloyds or Cdars Insurance for amounts over $250,000? Is this something they can assist with?
c. I have been told that these transactions are non-taxable, if not, should that not be true, will you provide in writing that I will have access to the funds to pay taxes.
Ask for a full explanation of what the CAP’s and restrictions are and how they work. How are they scaled and what are the benchmarks for restrictions to be removed?
Read everything they give you including the NDA. If you do not understand, ask until you do. OR if you feel you need help, ask if there is an attorney available who can help.
Be respectful – they are not trying to trick you or deceive you.
Discuss Bank Perks – on the private banking side there are perks that you can request. Understand that you will be paying for them. They typically are tiered – so the more AUM (assets under management) you have, the more options you have.
Let them know you are aware that there will be a number of essential tasks to be addressed in the next 10-15 days. Tell them you will be needing help in setting appointments and managing those tasks. Ask if they can provide you with someone who can help.
Below is a list of possible tasks and list of professionals for short term and long term.
a. Establish primary irrevocable trust and any additional trusts or structures. Basic trust components may include:
i. Complex
ii. Non-grantor
iii. Discretionary
iv. Spendthrift
v. Asset protection
b. Meet with Security and Risk management team
c. Wealth Management Team
d. Attorneys and CPAs
e. Establishing short- and long-term priorities
f. Education for self and family – ask what time frame is for completion
There will be a number of decisions that will need to be made post-exchange appointment including meeting with or hiring professionals to assist you. The list below is intended only as a guide.

Supplemental Information
Many are new to this and often terms are used incorrectly, switched, or interchanged. It is more important that you understand what terms mean when you get to your appointment.
DEFINITIONS
Tier 1 Bank: Tier 1 banks are those that hold the highest assets. They include: include: HSBC, Wells Fargo, Chase, Bank of America.
Full-Service Banks: Banks that offer a full range of services including a foreign exchange department. Credit Unions are not usually Full-Service.
Types of Rates:
Front screen/Street Rate: This is the rate you see when you look to purchase or sell currency. The buy rate is higher than the sell rate and the bank always includes a fee. The fee includes the bank portion and the UST portion.
International Rate/ Back Screen/ Default: This is the rate that is used for trading. It is higher than the front screen/street rate. Example: Street rate per million Dong: $1180. International rate: $470,000. To receive international/default rated does require that you sign an NDA. This protects you and the bank.
Contract Rate: This is a rate that is agreed to between countries. Any contract rate is a written agreement between two parties. When you hear “contract rates” associated with the RV, it is often being misused.
Unless you have a written agreement with another, you do not have a contract rate.
If you negotiate for something different than the default, then you will be signing a written agreement and that would be your contract rate.
In the context of the US, it has written agreements with other countries, specifically Iraq and Vietnam.
With Iraq, it is sometimes referred to as “contract for oil”. This is an agreement between governments. The US holds Iraqi Dinar and will receive that contract rate.
Not all currencies have contract rates.
Currently, if you hold Zim, contract rates will not be available. This is because you will receive more from the Zim than you will with a contracted currency rate.
NDA – Non-disclosure agreement
The NDA is a written agreement between two parties that specifies what cannot be disclosed or shared. Usually there is a time limit, 90 days +. As relates to the RV, you are agreeing to not discuss what rate you received for your currency and Zim. The RV transaction is a private transaction. The UST does not want you talking to the public about your private transaction.
If you choose not to sign an NDA, you will go with the public (Tier 5) and will receive Street Rate.
Who can participate? Generally speaking, you can participate in the RV if you are not and have not participated in gangs, legalized crime, murder, human trafficking etc. If you are unsure, make appointment and ask when you get there.
RV Tiers:
T1 = Governments
T2 = Military, those who put this together, groups
T3 = Humanitarian Organizations/Groups and SKR groups
T4 = Internet group – those who follow what is going on with the RV
T4A = Individuals with SKRs, now part of T3
T4B – Individuals, Internet Group
T5 = Public
SKR: Stands for Safe Keeping Receipt. This is where someone who is licensed and authorized to be a Paymaster (usually an attorney) represents a group of currency holders (were originally done prior to Zim being in the offering). They sign a contract and agree to a specified rate. There are not and have not been any new SKR groups for several years.
Prosperity Packages: These cover a very wide area. Includes funds from large trusts such as St. Germain, Rodriguez, Heritage and Mitterrand Trusts will be used to assist the Common Man and help with some debt relief.
Adjudicated Packages: These are lawsuits where plaintiffs won the legal cases. The largest are: CMKX, Native American Claims, Farm Claims, and others. You will know if you are already a part of these.
CMKX: A diamond mine that oversold stock with the help of the SEC. They were sued by key stockholders and won – often referred to as an Adjudicated Package.
Farm Claims: Lawsuit that involved farmers who were unfairly taken advantage of by bankers. They sued and won.
Currency Basket: Originally there were a few baskets with different countries’ currencies revaluing approximately six months apart. There are 22 currencies that are scheduled to go initially.
Once all currency are asset backed, that currency will be exchanged at 1:1 and it will not matter if it is a Mexican Peso or a Dinar. The RV is about creating a level playing field. Not all currency rates will rise in value and some will fall.
List of currencies:

"In It To Win it" By Dr. Dinar From Recaps Archive Section
.In It To Win It By Dr. Dinar
Is this thing for real?
No... really. Is it?
Yeah, this dinar RV deal.
This entire GCR "thing".
Is any of this really and truly going to happen? Like, ever??
Or are we existing in some kind of an alternate universe, alternating between reality and who knows where.
In It To Win It By Dr. Dinar
Is this thing for real?
No... really. Is it?
Yeah, this dinar RV deal.
This entire GCR "thing".
Is any of this really and truly going to happen? Like, ever??
Or are we existing in some kind of an alternate universe, alternating between reality and who knows where.
I'll bet there are quite a few folks asking themselves those very same questions right about now.
Not just family and friends of those afflicted with RV/GCR-itis.
Heck, they've had our Rubber Rooms reserved for us for many years now.
It's no shock to them that this once in a lifetime pipe dream has yet to materialize.
To them it's no surprise whatsoever that we aren't celebrating our new lives as millionaires.
Heck no.
They knew from the very beginning that this pie-in-the-sky, too-good-to-be-true Ponzi Scheme was just a scam perpetrated by the banks, the ABC Agencies and the self-proclaimed behind the screens Guru's.
And so far, they're feelin' pretty good about their predictions.
And they won't hesitate to continue to remind us of that fact either.
"Are you rich yet?"
"Did your ship finally come in?"
"How's that new Ferrari workin' out for ya?"
"Enjoying your new Beach House?"
I'm pretty sure we've all been on the receiving end of those jabs.
And more.
The naysayers that continue on with their relentless doubt filled statements, all in an effort to prove themselves right, at the expense of our being wrong.
Which all serves to undermine your foundation, if even just a little bit.
Completely understandable.
For those of us that have been involved in this made for TV spectacle for many years, those that have done the research and built a foundation based on history and how it's extremely likely that history will repeat itself in one form or another, I have a feeling we're fairing a bit better than those that have recently jumped on board the Insane Train.
Yes, I have a strong feeling that those folks among us that are relatively new to this game are going through those initial stages of serious doubt right about now.
Could the naysayers be right?
Could this all be a scam?
Did I fall for yet another Pyramid Scheme, just like my Brother in Law said I did?
We all have those twinges every once in a while, even us RV/GCR veterans.
It's only natural.
At the end of the day it comes down to this being a currency speculation.
Yes, a SPECULATION.
There are no guarantees, one way or another.
Absolutely none.
We paid our money, we bought our currency, we all (well, most of us anyway) verified that we were over 48in. tall, which means we're "officially" tall enough to ride this ride.
Basically, we're committed (some believe we should have been committed long ago but that's another story for a different day) to this journey, however long it may take.
Long term investment?
Yeah, we know.
Believe me... we know.
After all, how many times have we heard that.
Not quite as many times as we've heard "It's goin' down tomorrow!" but probably pretty darn close.
Which doesn't bode well for those that thought this was a guaranteed Lottery Ticket win.
Once they realized that this ordeal was going to take some time, they've had to do quite a bit of digging to create foundations of their own.
A means of hanging on and hangin' in there by any means available.
And I feel sorry for those that have yet to go through the initial reality check.
We all got "in" shortly after hearing we only had a few days before this thing popped and suffering through the not-knowingness of whether our shipment of IQD would arrive in time or not.
Yep, been there, done that.
And got the faded Fed Ex envelope to prove it.
Yet, here we are, weeks, months, some of us years later.
Still amazed at how we could still be waiting.
Wondering how all of these endless drop-dead dates and deadlines could have slid by without as much of a provable peep of factual facts to show for it.
Last I checked all the economies around the world should have crumbled at least five years ago.
And yet, here we are, with a world seemingly no worse for wear.
Well, besides the mandatory wearing of the masks, anyway.
Go figure.
And now we're back to the sounds of silence.
Which, I ain't gonna lie, can really be kind of a drag sometimes.
Yep, Dinarland has once again been hushed into submission and to be honest, the silence is deafening.
We've all picked our faves along the way and whether you're a fan of the Newshounds or the Rumtellers, you've surely felt there was someone in Dinarland strummin' the right banjo.
Playin' your tune.
Unfortunately, at the end of the day, here we sit with boxes of funny money and seemingly none of the all-knowing Guru's being any more right or wrong than any of the others.
We're all on the same playing field, left wondering who has the ball.
All part of the Plan? Perhaps.
Maybe all this confusion was just part of a well executed plan of deception.
Myself, I lean more towards the uncontrolled chaos of the situation creating most, if not all, of the confusion.
Not to mention all the behind-the-scenes corruption adding to the confusionism as well.
Mix it all together and you pretty much have the scenario we're currently experiencing.
I'm not so sure they had to add any extra ingredients to spice up the mix.
Does that mean we give up? Heck no!
Does it mean we aren't any closer than we were when Iraq was released from Chapter 7 oh so many years ago?
Again, not necessarily.
Maybe so. Maybe not.
Heck, at this point, everything's a guess because nobody really knows.
One thing's for certain though, we HAVE to be getting closer. Don't we?
I'd sure like to think so anyway.
Unfortunately, closer doesn't necessarily mean close.
Then again, it doesn't mean that we're not close.
It only means that despite how often we might forget, things are happening, things have happened, and things are being done.
Just not on our schedule.
Nor anybody else's for that matter.
And not the one thing we want so emphatically to be over and done, which of course is the GCR.
Therefore, it comes down to making a choice.
Do we bail out early, sell our currency back, and say a quick Adios to Dinarland?
I say Heck No!
I vote we continue to stay strong, to fight the good fight, and to prove, not only to ourselves, but to our family and friends, that we were right.
That "they" were wrong.
That this deal IS real.
That we aren't just plain looney.
That we aren't simply one dim Crayon short of a sharp tool shed.
I know I'm not going anywhere
I'm in it to win it!
And hopefully you are as well.
We've been in this thing for far too long to give up now.
Kindly,
Dr. Dinar

DAZ: EXCHANGE THOUGHTS
THESE ARE BROAD GENERALIZED STATEMENTS OF GUIDANCE TO HELP MANY OF THOSE THAT REALLY HAVE NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE OR CONCEPT OF BUSINESS OR BANKING.
JUST BE NEAT AND LOOK LIKE YOU MEANT TO GET DRESSED TO MEET SOMEONE THAT YOU WANT TO HAVE A KIND AND FAVORABLE IMPRESSION OF YOU....ITS JUST A FIRST DATE...NOT THE WEDDING..
IM NOT EVEN GOING TO LET THE IDEA OF SOME "QUALIFYING" CLOUD MY EXPERIENCE OF THIS THING. THE QUICKEST, EASIEST WAY TO APPEAR OR BE PERCEIVED AS FEARFUL AND LACKING CONFIDENCE IS TO FEEL YOU ARE BEING JUDGED ON THOSE ATTRIBUTES.
WINNERS DONT DO THAT.
JUST BE A GOOD REPRESENTATION OF YOURSELF...NOT SOMEBODY ELSE...BE KIND, PUT A SMILE ON THE INSIDE...AND OUTSIDE. BE YOURSELF...BEING FAKE WONT GET YOU PAID ANY QUICKER OR BETTER IMO
REALLY FEEL THE SMILE ON THE INSIDE..VISUALIZE IT..PRACTICE IT NOW...IT REALLY DOES CHANGE THE ENERGY IN A MEETING....YOU'LL BE FINE.
I WOULD NOT VOLUNTEER TOO MANY DETAILS, IDEAS OR CONCEPTS GENERALLY,
ALL GREAT IDEAS ALWAYS FIND OPPOSITION. A NEUTRAL CONFIDENT STANCE MAY BE WISE. A FRIEND ONCE TOLD ME...."YOU DONT HAVE TO TELL EVERYBODY EVERYTHING YOU KNOW...AND ITS BETTER THAT YOU DONT".
THEY WOULD RATHER HEAR THAT YOU WANT THEM TO TELL "YOU" ABOUT ALL THE PLANS, POSSIBILITIES, STRUCTURES AND OPPORTUNITES THEY MAY PROVIDE. WM'S DONT WANT TO BE TOLD HOW TO DO THIER JOB OR HOW YOU WANT THEM TO DO IT.
ULTIMATELY THEY TRULY JUST WANT YOU TO HAND THEM THE MONEY TO PLUG INTO THEIR EXISTING SYSTEM. ...THATS THE WAY THEY ARE TRAINED AND WHAT THEY ARE GENERALLY USED TO....AND THATS JUST THE REALITY OF THE THING
.
WE WILL BE CALM, CONFIDENT AND SMILING...THEY WILL BE TIRED, DISORIENTED AND ANXIOUS...SURELY WE CAN MEET IN THE MIDDLE SOMEWHERE.
MAYBE A SIMPLE BUT SOMEWHAT AMBIGUOUS REPLY UPON THEIR INQUIRY MAY BE BEST...
"I PLAN TO MAKE MY IMMEDIATE FAMILY A LITTLE MORE COMFORTABLE AND THEN I WANT TO LEARN HOW TO PROTECT AND GROW MY MONEY FOR GENERATIONS...AND I NEED SOME HELP WITH THAT."
THAT WILL PUSH ALL THE NECESSARY BUTTONS.
AND REMEMBER....IF YOU DONT UNDERSTAND, ASK, IF YOU DONT GET AN ANSWER YOU CAN UNDERSTAND, ASK SOMEBODY ELSE AND,......IF IT DONT FEEL RIGHT...DONT DO IT
Sample Script:
HELLO MR. BANKER, I HAVE IRAQ DINAR, VIETNAM DONG AND ZIMBABWE CURRENCY. I WOULD LIKE TO EXCHANGE...CAN WE DISCUSS THE MOST FAVORABLE RATES AND TERMS, BOTH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE, AVAILABLE FOR EACH?
WELL MR BANKER.....I RECEIVED SOME INFORMATION IN THE PAST THAT THERE MAY BE MORE THAN ONE RATE AVAILABLE DEPENDING ON HOW WE EXECUTED THIS EXCHANGE.
IF THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS BESIDE AN EXCHANGE AT THE INTERNATIONAL RATE, I WOULD LIKE TO EXPLORE THOSE TERMS AND REQUIREMENTS IF THEY ARE AVAILABLE TO YOU OR ANY AT THIS BANK.
BE RELAXED, CONFIDENT, FRIENDLY AND PURPOSEFUL
EASY, SIMPLE, HONEST, INFORMED AND DIRECT
Feel free to keep those that may fit you own personal situation and disregard the rest……

"Post RV" Tips and Suggestions From Recaps Archives

"Remember" Post RV Tips from 30MDinar at TNT
Remember... to CHANGE your telephone number and EMAIL address IMMEDIATELY post RV! Think about every call you have dialed in to and how your telephone number has been captured and added to a list. Well, what happens to that list? Do you want YOUR telephone number out there on a "dinar holder" "millionaire" etc. list?
Remember - your goal should be to own NOTHING personally and be judgement proof. Think assett PROTECTION. Get with someone who is a licensed professional in good standing who knows what they are doing. Look in to trusts, foundations etc.
IMPORTANT: when you exchange - make sure you do NOT agree to give the bank power of attorney over YOUR money.
Remember... an opportunity of this magnitude may NEVER happen again. The very last thing you want to do is blow this one! Be smart and triple check everything.

"Remember" Post RV Tips from 30MDinar at TNT
Remember... to CHANGE your telephone number and EMAIL address IMMEDIATELY post RV! Think about every call you have dialed in to and how your telephone number has been captured and added to a list. Well, what happens to that list? Do you want YOUR telephone number out there on a "dinar holder" "millionaire" etc. list?
Remember - your goal should be to own NOTHING personally and be judgement proof. Think assett PROTECTION. Get with someone who is a licensed professional in good standing who knows what they are doing. Look in to trusts, foundations etc.
IMPORTANT: when you exchange - make sure you do NOT agree to give the bank power of attorney over YOUR money.
Remember... an opportunity of this magnitude may NEVER happen again. The very last thing you want to do is blow this one! Be smart and triple check everything.
Dont be quick to act. Be slow and calculating. Assemble a professional team of people who know what they are doing, are licensed, in good standing to advise you what is in YOUR best interest.
Remember... when you purchase a home, don’t forget about the property taxes and insurance! Be sure to calculate how much you are going to need and set it aside for however many years you expect to live in that home. Many have lost their homes because they didn't stop to plan properly and ended up not being able to afford the household related expenses.
Remember... one of the most powerful words in any language is NO. Keep this in mind when people approach you for money! Always keep in mind that it is critical for your long term wealth protection that you hold on to your money! Of course I am NOT saying you should not tithe and be charitable. Just be smart and very careful with your money so it will last!
Remember... after you get in to your new home... take an inventory of the contents - furnishings, electronic equipment, clothes etc. Anything that you would want replaced in the event of a fire or some other disaster. A great way to do it is with a VIDEO camera. Place that video in a safe desposit box. An itemized list is also highly recommended. Be sure to keep this list up to date to include new purchases.
Remember... make sure you properly insure your new home for both REPLACEMENT value as well as contents. Always check your coverage amounts.
Remember... people with NO money always want to join forces with someone who has money. The problem is... they usually are only interested in taking your money and rarely can they offer any value.
Remember... if you plan to hire a housekeeper, gardener, nanny or anyone to do anything in or at your home... ALWAYS check references and make sure they are bonded, insured etc. You've got to think like those who would love to cheat you out of your money and stay many steps ahead of them.
Remember... to contact each of your monthly utilities providers and ask them to add a password to your account. This means they will not give out any of your personal information without getting the correct password that is on the account. This is CRITICAL. This is a very simple and basic way crooks get access to your home address.
Remember... be very AWARE of strangers and / or inviting ANYONE whom you don't really know to your home. It;s easy for people to make claims - especially when their goal is to file a claim against your home owners insurance policy or against you etc.
There are PROFESSIONAL CROOKS that prey on people with money because they see you as a payday. Think about the PROFESSIONAL FALLERS who slip and fall in the grocery store and then file a lawsuit against the chain.
And be especially careful when driving an expensive car, if others have the right of way, make them take it , don't let them wave for you to take it. They could run into you and you would be at fault.

READY... SET... WHOA! by Dr. Dinar
As we approach the end of the year, the one phrase we continue to hear over and over again is "Everybody's ready, everything's in place, we're simply waiting for the GO signal."
There's only one problem. We've been hearing that very same phrase for the past 2 or 3 years.
I don't know about you but I've lost quite a bit of faith in that statement.
Actually, more than just a bit.
As a matter of fact, I've pretty much filed that phrase under the same category as "Sooner than later" and "We're in the window".
The category starts with an "M"... for Meaningless.
And as much as we continually hear there haven't been any delays, the longer this continues to drag out the less I believe in that statement.
If I have to hear about the horses waiting anxiously in the starting gate one more time, I'm going to open up my own Glue Factory.

Well, I would but I'd need to exchange some IQD first. So I guess that will have to wait.
You get the point. Things can only be "ready to go" for so long before they're no longer ready to go.
Does that mean the plan has changed? That sounds a bit more plausible.
For as many decades as this traveling Circus has been on the road it's easy to believe there have been more than a few delays along the way.
Some they could plan for. Others, not so much.
Again, with a never before attempted task as monumental as the GCR, easily understandable.
For example, how many times have you set up your Saturday morning schedule of chores only to just get started and first thing outta the gate, blindsided by the unforseen.
That's life. Regardless of how well you've planned, things rarely, if ever, go as planned.
For example, let's say your goal for the weekend is to begin your Saturday by mowing the lawn and straight outta the gate, the lawnmower won't start.
Sure enough, it's out of gas. Next stop, the garage to grab a nearby gas can (one of seven or so waiting patiently on the shelf as this is not a new experience).
Wouldn't you know it, it's empty as well. So it's off to the gas station you go.
Upon arrival, you immediately see that your "fave" pump is clear and it's gonna be your day.
Only one small problem. Reaching for your debit card you instantly discover you've forgotten your wallet.
Easy to understand as only a crazy person mows the lawn with their wallet in their cargo shorts pocket.
Nobody wants to mistakenly mow down their wallet, completely shredding everything inside.
Jumping in your car, it's back home you go.
Fortunately you only live a couple miles away.
Knowing you'll be back in a flash, this is really no big deal and should only set you back a half hour or so.
After all, you've been mapping out the entire scenario in your mind all the way home. No worries, you got this.
Upon arriving home, you run in the house knowing all too well just exactly where your wallet is.
Your default spot, where it always is.
Running in the house, it's off to your dresser you go.
It's THE spot for your wallet. Been that way for longer than you can remember.
Well, not this time. Not on top of the dresser.
Not behind the dresser. Not in a top drawer. Not anywhere.
It's gone. Just plain gone. So much for your so called plan. Now what.
That plan just went out the "everybody's ready, everything's in place, just waiting for the GO signal" window.
Whispering (okay, screaming) in your head "Think, you idiot... THINK! Where could that dang thing be!"
It has to be here somewhere. "Ohhh, that's right. Now I remember!"
It quickly dawns on you that you ordered a pizza last night and needed your wallet to tip the delivery guy.
Heading to the living room, knowing it has to be sitting on the table by the front door, on top of the TV, the coffee table, one of those three spots.
It's guaranteed to be there, just like the 30 minute delivery guarantee. It's good as gold.
Or is it. Scouting around, you're still not seeing it. But you know it's close and you'll find it sooner than later.
Under the couch. Behind the TV. That would be a double NO.
Okay, think. Where could it be.
Doing your best not to get too stressed, you already know the last place you used it. To tip the delivery driver.
So you got that goin' for you, which is nice.
Now all you have to do is find it. Between the couch cushions? Nope. In the car keys bowl by the front door? Another nope.
In the pocket of the sweatshirt you were wearing last night when you went to pay the driver? Again, nope.
Okay, now it's getting to be more than a bit stressful.
Looking at the clock you quickly realize that you're already over an hour past your scheduled time for completing the mow job and you've yet to get started.
But you've still got time and you'll be back on track before you know it.
All these missing wallet problems far behind you.
Telling yourself to calm down isn't working.
So what's the next best thing to bring down your heart rate? Food.
Yep, a "search snack" of some sort. Works every time.
Guaranteed to take your mind off the situation and help you to relax.
And what's better than "day after" pizza. Ummm... nothing!
It's almost as if this whole experience was meant to be.
Rushing to the fridge, knowing you still have half a pizza remaining from last nights delivery, it's off to pizza nirvana you go.
As you grab the box, more than ready to dive on in, what's that staring you right in the face.
No flippin' way. How can that be. It can't, but yet, it is.
Yes, it's your wallet. The very same wallet you've been searching everywhere for over the past 45 minutes.
Then it all comes flooding back.
Shortly before putting the box of uneaten pizza in the fridge, you couldn't help but grab one last slice and as your hands were full, you plopped your wallet down on the box as you began chomping away.
Phew, mystery solved. Time to call off Jim Rockford, his services won't be needed here.
Feeling as if you deserve a Finders Fee, a reward of some sort, for finding your wallet, you can't help but grab a slice before you quickly scramble out the door, jump in your car and head back to the gas station.
Doing your best not to get too down on yourself for this stupid mistake, knowing it was only a two hour setback, all has not been lost
You still have plenty of time to mow the lawn.
Wallet in your pocket, all you have to do is grab a couple gallons of gas and you'll be home and mowin' away in no time.
Pulling in the gas station driveway and seeing your fave pump is once again wide open, it's a sure sign you'll be out of there and back home in no time.
Swiping your debit card and punching in your PIN, everything's ready to go.
Oops, forgot to grab the gas can. Rookie mistake.
Easily understandable as it's not like you have to do this last minute scramble to the gas station every week.
Walking around to the back of your car, opening the trunk, reaching for the gas can and BAM, it's not there.
Say WHAT!?! I know I brought it. I had it in my hands the first time I was here.
Then it dawns on you that yes, you did indeed have it in your hands the first time you were there.
And you set it down next to the pump prior to realizing that you'd forgotten your wallet.
And in your haste to rush home to grab your wallet, you left the gas can sitting by the pump.
Your first thought is "If I ever catch the guy that stole it I'll..." but calming yourself, you decide to head on inside the Gas-N-Go in hopes it was found by some kind soul and returned, knowing you'd be returning for it soon.
No such luck. And even worse, the clerk informs you that they're currently out of gas cans as they've had a run on them as of late.
That's when it hits you. You've been down this road before.
Hence the other half dozen gas cans sitting empty on the shelf in the garage, one of which you'd be grabbing before you headed back to the station for the third time.
No sweat, third time's the charm.
Heading back to your car, shaking your head in defeat, wondering how could all of your plans have gone so wrong, you decide to top off your tank.
After all, you've already submitted your card, not much more of a delay.
Might as well make the best of a bad situation. At least it will save you a trip later on in the week.
Click... click... click. $1.43 later, your tank is full and you're good to go.
Okay, so you filled up a couple days ago and didn't really need this trip to the station after all.
But you did need your wallet. And if it wasn't for this whole fiasco playing out the way it did, who knows how long it would've taken you to find it.
Let alone to even realize it was missing. At least not until what's sure to be a rather stressful Monday morning thanks to today's plans falling through.
Thank you Universe, you done good. Well, good enough anyway.
All the way home you're working out your Plan C for the rest of the day.
Sure, you're behind schedule by about 4 hours but there's still time to get back to your house, grab a gas can, rush back to the gas station, and make it back home again in time to mow the lawn.
Woo Hoo, all is not lost after all. You got this!
Almost home, rounding the corner, Dangit! You've gotta be kidding me!
Pulling in your driveway you can't help but notice that your auto-sprinklers are on full blast and your lawn is completely soaked.
Which, as anybody that's ever mowed a lawn knows, is the number one "No Go" signal for mowing the lawn.
Which is also the reason why you needed to get an early morning start in the first place. In order to beat the sprinklers.
So much for all your Saturday plans. The lawn will never be dry before dark. Looks like you'll have to give it another go tomorrow.
Oh wait, no can do. You already made plans to have friends over to watch football. Better make plans for next Saturday instead.
Now, what to do with the rest of your Saturday since all of your plans have been cancelled.
Looks like it's going to be an afternoon chillaxin' on the couch with a few slices of leftover pizza.
Sitting there, you begin to reflect on this whole GCR thing and can't help but wonder if this is what's going on with those hard working guys and gals back at GCR Headquarters.
Perhaps they're experiencing these same glitches, continually making plans, only to have them fall through time and time again.
Can't be something as stupid as them simply forgetting to wind the GCR Clock. Or can it?
Naw, chances are the QFS is now in charge of the GCR Clock along with all of its other duties.
One would also think they have a backup plan as well, just in case their original clock goes cuckoo.
And what about all of the people rumored to be waiting "on hold" at some 7,000 Exchange Centers across the country. They have to be pretty sick and tired of leftover pizza by now.
Any way you choose to look at it, at least you know there are many others who share your frustration of endless plans being cancelled.
At this point the only thing you know for certain is you're guaranteed to have the best Christmas ever.
And by the time your family and friends arrive for the holidays you're going to have the best looking lawn on the block.
That is, of course, unless you run out of gas and have to make alternate plans.
If that happens, then all bets are off.
Hang in there folks. We're getting closer with each passing day and before you know it you'll be ever so grateful that you never gave up.
Sincerely,
Dr. Dinar
