    This is why we LOVE ItalianNotebook.com! Perhaps something could be learned here for our US banks??

    Dear GB,
    My wife shared the “The Who Moved My Parmigiano” which is a great article. It is also a prime example of warehouse financing in agriculture, which FAO promotes. I would like to share this with Devfinance, an internet group on agricultural finance if that is acceptable, and insert the link to your site.
    Thanks,
    Calvin

    I love all of the Italian Notebook notes. I lived in Italy in my high-school years and reading these notes really keeps me feeling connected. I so miss the Italian view of life!

    Love this article. The whole idea makes sense and cents!

    What a fantastic way to protect against bad debts. The only downside would be a currency devaluation. If that happens, probably the value of cheese will be the least of anyone’s worries. You have to love Italy.

    please check your spelling. Parmigiano comes with one g. Here appears correclty spelled, but on the mail I received somehow appears with two. How come?

    Interesting. Wish I’d bought some before the great descent.

    Not impressed with your spelling, dear editor, but I love the phrase “dei stessi stivali.” Please, cosa vuol dire?

    [...] Who moved my Parmigiano? Banks in Italy are buying and storing Parmigiano Reggiano as a hedge against “the expected future devaluation of other assets and defaults in their portfolio.” This wouldn’t work in my house… because I’d eat my hedge. [...]

    I wondered if you could help me locate a copy of the book “Who Moved My Cheese” translated into Italian. I want to buy it for my son, who is studying Italian and loves the English version.

    Thank you for giving me a site address where I can purchase the book in the Italian.

    Thank you for any help you can give me!!
