If the ISX takes off and my ISX investment grows to a larger amount and then a large revalue happens, I will be very happy.

If they say "We can only give you your money in person, please come to Warka in Baghdad" I will be really upset.

I will have to make due with the few million dinars I have in hand. Maybe in the future iraq will be less violent and after a R/V I can afford to hire security to escort me to a Warka Branch to collect.

I and others are putting alot of trust in Warka (the gamble), and up to this point Warka has not done anything to me to betray my trust. I'm invested in Bank stocks and Pepsi and investigated them the best I could,but really not alot of info out there I could find.(gambling again).

I'm not a seasoned investor and some may think that a Warka account and the ISX proxy program are not wise investments, but what if it does work out? And my ISX stocks are multiplied by 2x,3x,5x !

Some people think buying Dinar hoping for a revalue is not a wise investment, but I know alot that think it's a good bet.

Sorry If I wasn't able to answer all your questions as they are all very important issues.

Well then good for you. Hope everything turns out the way you envisioned it. Good luck.
