This $200M bank is backed by Parmesan Cheese and is lending people money for cheese In Northern Italy, Credito Emiliano treats cheese like gold The bank currently holds 430,000 wheels of Parmesan worth about $200 million Real Parmesan takes two to three years to get ready This leaves farmers with millions of dollars in premature products they can’t sell, while still needing to pay for cows, bills, and workers By using young cheese as security for a loan, farmers get cash immediately The bank provides up to 80% of the value upfront so these businesses stay running While the loan is active, the cheese stays in high tech vaults where experts look after it If a farmer can't pay, the bank simply sells the aged cheese for a profit

This is just one of countless unethical ways money is made online. This video shows a poker bot farm. Multiple bots sit at the same table and share their cards in real time. Because they know each other’s cards, they never bluff or trap each other. They only bet aggressively when the human is statistically behind, and fold otherwise. A single bot farm like this can make more than the house!!
