Investing in the Iraqi Dinar

You might have heard that Iraq is the second largest supplier of oil in the world. It is no wonder that many people are interested in this country. Since the reserves of oils in the world are diminishing, the prices of oil go up. Many investors in the world decide to invest in Iraqi Dinar seeing it as an opportunity to earn a quick and easy buck. I would like to present you with what I think on the subject. Below you will find the list of pros and cons of investing in Iraqi Dinar.

Pros:
-Since 2003, the Iraqi Dinar has already appreciated.
-The presence of US troops makes the country more and more stable.

Cons:
-The Iraqi Dinar is not officially traded in the world markets. If you decide to invest in the Iraqi Dinar, you are going to do it on your own risk.
-In order to purchase the currency, you will often have to deal with brokers or Iraqi banks that you will not to trust. Very often, you will need to take a leap of faith that the bank of your choice is going to remain solvent to pay you the money.

Football Betting

Football betting is one of the most popular types of sports betting in North America. Since so many people watch football matches on TV, betting on football should not be that difficult. If you choose to watch a football match, you can also choose to bet on the football team of your choice. If you want to be successful in football betting, here are some strategies that you might want to try:

-Learn anything you can about football teams and their players. Learn who played well last season, and learn who played badly last season. The more information you have, the more likely you are to place a good bet.

-Learn the rules of football betting. It is important for you to know that most football bets that are being made include point spreads. You will discover that some football teams are favored by an x amount of points over other football teams. If you bet on a team that is more favored, this team has to win more times in order for you to win your bet.

-Do not ignore pre-season games. You will find many underdogs for which you can bet before the football season officially starts. The truth is that many odds makers put their odds for pre-season games treating them as regular season games. Try to use it to your advantage and jump on one of those games.
