I can't speak for others; only for me. Have let, and allowed myself to get jerked around emotionally and mentally too many times now by Intel that, after review in following days, had no substance. Reality, not empty words and repeated disappointed trust is now needed and in common sense order.
Bruce said, last night, it is confirmed that small denomination dinar notes are in everyday use in Iraq now. Is it really really true? Because if it is it would signify that Dinar was now RV'd and most likely gold backed. Is there any Real factual evidence that is so? or is it just more RUMORED INTEL. Anybody have any pictures? With just about everybody having cells phones now it would be very easy for pictures to surface.
In my opinion if we do not hold the ones who have chosen to be Intel providers to high standards of integrity, honor and confirmation of claims we will continue to get told un validated things we want/crave to hear. It seems the validations put forth are usually along the line of: 'Someone I trust told me'. Usually just such hearsay.
It is only natural for good intentioned Intel providers to get caught in the trap of passing on 'hope' filled words rather than fact based and verified evidence to back up truthful information.
It is after all a dance floor and playing field where ego can easily prosper.
If we, the currency land collective, do not demand only real and true verified information we will not get it. It is up to us to respect ourselves and be self responsible re such matters.
I think there needs to be a new phrase to call the category and kind of information we have been given by so many for so long: it should be labelled every time: RUMORED INTEL.
And then, when the RUMORED INTEL becomes fact based by sharable background facts proved to be true. Then it can then be called VERIFIED AND VALIDATED INTEL.
I am not wanting to call Intel providers wrong or insincere etc. Everyone in collective currency land has brought us to this point of confusion and lack of day to day clarity over many years.
In my opinion a lot of unnecessary pain and suffering has been initiated by low level fact finding and automatic unwise trusting founded on an addictive need for good news; what has been nicknamed hopium. Maybe it is time to find better and more accurate terminology to label Intel information.
If I am in error in the above thoughts and thinking I apologize. If I am being judgmental and evil with the above expression, I apologize. Like everyone else I am doing my best to walk the path.
Yours
