I, along with 5 other security personal accompanied the Ambassador to purchase 20,000 USD in Dinar in early 2004...
He told us to get as much as poss with our own money and that someday it will be worth 10 - 20x what we paid...
He also explained how Bremmer himself purchased over 200,000 USD worth, gosh I guess I should not be telling this but oh well...
Just don't like the Dumb white kid from the subs thing, and from what you are saying I'm dumb and was also in the war zone, is how I took it anyway...

Thanks for sharing that. I don't know why you never wanted to talk about it. How much was the exchange rate at that time?
