I really want to know...

poneethere is a big difference between a guru  and an intel provider. the gurus are wanabees who think they  know but have no clue or give out info on how they precieve things.  an intel provider usual gets his info right or wrong from news sources. i use to enjoy reading the gurus for laughs but all they do is stir up the sheep who base there h whole  life on the rv

To me there is no difference.   ANYONE can read and RECAP an article.  Intel providers are no more of value than a Guru.  Recapping articles is useless.

ponee of all the people on there are only 2 i can think of that are usually on the money yota and bond lady just my opinon

But all they are doing is posting articles and sometimes commenting on them. That means nothing, because Articles mean nothing.  

What are they on the money about?

;-)

But here is a glass of Ripple for you Royboy

Ty Ponee, that bottle just might be worth something now, I haven't seen it on shelves since I was ummmmmmmm  18 lol-------------------copy and paste ----You will find that ripple wine is said to be a 'low-end fortified wine' that became very popular in the 1970s. This was mainly due to the fact this wine was a lot cheaper to buy and was normally bought with the intention of getting very drunk, very quickly.

The alcohol content of ripple wine is usually between 13% to 20%. Wine is usually seen as a more sophisticated drink than lager or spirits, like vodka. However, with the introduction of ripple wine the line between them has become a little more blurred - a bit like a person's vision if they've had too much of it.

Many historians also argue that the low-end fortified wine became very sort after in the period of prohibition in the United States during the 1930s. Prohibition was the outlawing of all alcohol and so people had to be very devious to smuggle alcohol into their homes. Illegal bars and pubs were set up. The appeal of the low-end fortified wine was that it was certainly cheaper than many other forms of alcohol and it was also one of the quickest ways of being totally intoxicated.

Very interesting History lesson there Royboy!  I appreciate the information !

I found this tidbit about it along with your info...

On Sanford and Son, Ripple was often referred to, as it was Fred Sanford's alcoholic beverage of choice; Fred loved to mix it with other beverages, such as:
Champipple: Ripple mixed with Champagne
Maneschipple: RIple and Maneschevitz 
Beaujolipple : Ripple and Beaujolais

Yep , As kids we bought it for a fast drunk, it's brother was Night train, if we had extra money we bought Mad dog. I remember Fred talking about it and even Jim Croce had it in a song of his. Cheers

Croce said Ripple was the only wine that didn't have a grape in it, just grain alcohol and flavoring

Ahhh I remember those younger days! Good stuff there.  Cheap drunk

I personally haven't followed too many gurus or intel providers till this year.  I was relying a lot more on my friend who introduced me to dinar and of course my beloved Dinar Vets with its news.  I started to branch out and check out recaps as a suggestion from my friend and started to check out other sites.  I have not followed too many crazy gurus.  I have followed a few that I think decent but throughout my journey in dinarland, I have met friends whom I share info/intel that are not in other sites.  We check and balance and we watch which gurus come close to our intel lol

Some people who in the know, prefer to be quiet and not to share publicly, afraid of the bashing and some people are willing to share the info in small circle   that has been my experience with some people who were willing to share and now decided to just be quiet and only share to a few. 

Then, we have all the gurus regurgitating the news over and over again and yet.. a lot of sheeple there will eat it without thinking for themselves.. because they don't want to think and they still have hope in their dreams. 

Why some people sell most of their holdings but still hang on to small amount for just in case..? because they still have hope

Sorry, I still don't believe any commoner knows jack.  That would be like common  iraqi's knowing what is going on in the white house,

 I don't care if it is Dinar Vets or any other site.  NO ONE really knows.

Most of the gurus were just regular people who bought dinar and found themselves on a site and found a way to make money at this and have learned to exploit it for their own gain.  And other gurus are actual dinar dealers who also have exploited the dinarians.

And people all going around saying, the gurus can't help it that things change over there... bull crap. That is just the stupidest thing to say.

Also, posting articles and re stating them and giving your opinion does not make anyone an expert on the subject matter.

Great question!

Why?

Maybe because some that invested can not admit that they have been mislead and flat out lied to about what this so called investment is and following these self appointed know it all fairytale spinners and storyboard characters is their thread of hope rather than move on.  

That and stupidity.   :loki:

Ponee

Well .... you are in this longer than me.  My experience might have been sheltered.  I have spent my money when I studied dinar.  If I were to know then what I know now.. I would have come ahead buying dinar to pay taxes, but I consider it as a good education because I believe and no one to blame but me.  

Your experience and my experience might be different, but I know some people who have connection and not sharing to group anymore because they got bashed.  I read news, guru's made up stories, rumors and dinarian's opinions.. I take them all, I eat the meat and spit out the bones. I draw my own conclusion.  I know who blow smokes, who are descent.  I understand no one truly knows when and what rate.. what I am trying to do is to read between the lines and put the pieces together.  

I believe dinar will revalue because it's a currency and with all Iraq has... they will not keep the rate down especially they were in glory once before.  Would it revalue today..? sure I would like to but if not, I might keep it and pass it to my children and I am hoping I will see my investment comes to fruition in my lifetime.

No one pointed a gun when I buy because I am an adult and I see it as an investment and I buy willingly.. who to blame..? only myself but I don't because I see the potential.  Was I naive four years ago? yes I was but I wise up and if I don't believe in it, I would have sold and be done with it and never look back.  Knowing that I am still here, means I still believe in it

Will I read guru's articles..? you bet I will, I am quite selective to who I follow.  All of us buy into this dream and hoping it comes true

Ponee, I am just going to flat out agree with the points that you have made in this thread.

Gurus claim superior knowledge from 'contacts' and 'sources' while newshounds claim superior knowledge from articles.

Neither method has brought any legitimate benefit to dinarland as a whole
