&lt;p&gt;I am a director with a large Industrial Development and Export Authority in the USA. We are studying the theory and idea of providing &amp;#39;Constant Value Loans&amp;#39; as cited in &amp;quot;The Dying of Money&amp;quot; previously found on the mises.org site, but also found here (http://nowandfutures.com/large/TheDyingOfMoney.pdf). This was championed by economist Sir Alfred Marshall in the 19th century as well as by others for centuries. The basic hope of the Constant Value Loan is to circumvent governmental monetary actions through periodically adjusting interest as well as principal payments to an appropriate index. This way, the lender is protected in inflationary times, and the borrower is protected in deflationary times.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My question is does anyone have recommendations to white papers on the theory, process or empiracle evidence of implementation for our study?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thank you in advance.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Re: Profiting from knowledge</title><link>http://mises.org/community/groups/austrian_econometrics/forum/p/6045/349929.aspx#349929</link><pubDate>Sat, 24 Jul 2010 23:00:19 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">944abf2b-d1be-4bf2-990d-438cb0e377e9:349929</guid><dc:creator>amareshgangal</dc:creator><description>Yes Gleb, Absolutely. The wisdom of Austrian School of Economics is absolutely concrete. And we should profit and make our friends profit from this knowledge. I have started blog for this with URL as http://amareshgangal.blogspot.com/ 

Only catch of profiting from this wisdom is it always gives long term profit and may not work in short term at all. Also general public seems to understand / are ready to listen to this only in Burst time. In boom time when the actual problem is accumulating, ofter this wisdom is criticized as negative thinkers etc.. But hopefully by telling good small stories we can even make it interesting during boom period.

e.g. http://amareshgangal.blogspot.com/2010/04/dear-all-before-we-proceed-further-lets.html 

Anyway&amp;#39;s what we can do is to continue belief on Sound Principals and hope people also understand and follow it.

Thanks 
Amaresh.
