From Recaps Comment Section:

Ralph:  Want to share the following information with all currency holders. At approximately 9:07 a.m. this morning I was informed from a credible source of what may very well be a schedule of events that could be ahead for all U.S. currency holders.

I have no reason to doubt this information, but remember such information DOES NOT ORIGINATE with me………I am simply relaying to the viewing audience what was conveyed to me
.
The information is as follows:

1. On Friday January 20, 2017 immediately after President-Elect Trump is sworn into office as our new President, all funding for our long awaited R.V. will be activated.

2.During the week-end of Saturday January 21, 2017 to Sunday January 22,2017, President Trump will report to the nation that our currency has adopted the Gold Standard as its source of backing.

3. On Monday January 23, 2017, the exchange process is to begin for all U.S. currency holders.

Let’s all REST IN THE FAITH that the above comes to fruition for us all.
….

VAFootDoctor:  FWIW (for what its worth)

JUST SPOKE WITH MY HIGH LEVEL SOURCE AGAIN, SHE SAID, AND I QUOTE, “IF THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN BEFORE PRESIDENT ELECT TRUMP IS SWORN IN TOMORROW, THEN DON’T LOOK FOR THIS TO HAPPEN ANYTIME WITHIN HIS FIRST 100-DAYS IN OFFICE.” END QUITE.

JUST SHARING WHAT I WAS TOLD.

DAZ:  EXCHANGE THOUGHTS
 
DC’S COMMENTS ABOUT BANK EXCHANGERS DETERMINATIONS OF YOUR QUALIFYING FOR CONTRACTS ARE GENERAL GUIDANCES….
 
MY GUT TELLS ME IT WILL GO MUCH DIFFERENTLY FOR MOST..THESE ARE BROAD GENERALIZED STATEMENTS OF GUIDANCE TO HELP MANY OF THOSE THAT REALLY HAVE NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE OR CONCEPT OF BUSINESS OR BANKING.
 
JUST BE NEAT AND LOOK LIKE YOU MEANT TO GET DRESSED TO MEET SOMEONE THAT YOU WANT TO HAVE A KIND AND  FAVORABLE IMPRESSION OF YOU….ITS JUST A FIRST DATE…NOT THE WEDDING..
 
IM NOT EVEN GOING TO LET THE IDEA OF SOME “QUALIFYING”  CLOUD MY EXPERIENCE OF THIS THING. THE QUICKEST, EASIEST WAY TO APPEAR OR BE PERCEIVED AS FEARFUL AND LACKING CONFIDENCE IS TO FEEL YOU  ARE BEING JUDGED ON THOSE ATTRIBUTES.
 
WINNERS DONT DO THAT.

JUST BE A GOOD REPRESENTATION OF YOURSELF…NOT SOMEBODY ELSE…BE KIND, PUT A SMILE ON THE INSIDE…AND OUTSIDE. BE YOURSELF…BEING FAKE WONT GET YOU PAID ANY QUICKER OR BETTER IMO
 
REALLY FEEL THE SMILE ON THE INSIDE..VISUALIZE IT..PRACTICE IT NOW…IT REALLY DOES CHANGE THE ENERGY IN A MEETING….YOU’LL BE FINE.
 
I WOULD NOT VOLUNTEER TOO MANY DETAILS, IDEAS OR CONCEPTS GENERALLY,
 
ALL GREAT IDEAS ALWAYS FIND OPPOSITION. A NEUTRAL CONFIDENT STANCE MAY BE WISE. A FRIEND ONCE TOLD ME….”YOU DONT HAVE TO TELL EVERYBODY EVERYTHING YOU KNOW…AND ITS BETTER THAT YOU DONT”.
 
THEY WOULD RATHER HEAR THAT YOU WANT THEM TO TELL “YOU” ABOUT ALL THE PLANS, POSSIBILITIES, STRUCTURES AND OPPORTUNITES THEY MAY PROVIDE. WM’S DONT WANT TO BE TOLD HOW TO DO THIER JOB OR HOW YOU WANT THEM TO DO IT.
