Up the Ante

“In drawers and footlockers, servicemembers in Iraq are banking on the future by hoarding millions of Iraq’s year- old currency, the dinar.”

Interesting.  Will there be a payoff, like there was in Kuwait?

“If post-war Kuwait is any example, they might be right: A Kuwaiti dinar was valued at a about a dime after the war. Each now brings in $3.40.”

“Troops take a gamble on Iraqi dinars”

Via triticale.
