A week for posting about questions such as (list from this post):

1. Strategy for small donors
   1. Whether to split your donations vs giving to one thing
   2. Giving now vs investing to give later
   3. Giving to tried and tested (and OP funded?) orgs vs unknown/underrated/reputationally risky opportunities

2. Earning to give

   1. Stories from E2G-ers, about their strategy, personal experience, challenges and so on

   2. Data visualisation on how much EAs (including E2G-ers) donate. I believe the latest on this is EA Survey 2020 Series: Donation Data, maybe more recent data doesn’t exist, but I’d be interested in someone trying

   3. High-upside vs predictable career choices

3. Solutions to funding problems without getting more funding

   1. How to be frugal (as a person or org). Or “a good steward of funding”, e.g. keeping your funding in a money market account

   2. Promoting things to mainstream appeal, à la PEPFAR or LEAF

   3. When should we value volunteering/pro-bono work over direct funding?

4. Non-standard funding mechanisms

   1. Introducing new funding mechanisms (like this)

   2. Donor lotteries

   3. Impact certificates and prizes

   4. Donation matching

5. Large donors

   1. Input from wealthy and EA-adjacent people (e.g. Vitalik Buterin) who don’t donate to the standard “big EA” charities, on their reasoning behind their personal giving

   2. Posts from people who work with High Net Worth Individuals (e.g. Founder’s Pledge), on whatever insights they have as a result of this

6. Fact posts (underrated)- posts which contribute to our collective understanding of the funding ecosystem

   1. Anything like this spreadsheet that @Hamish McDoodles kindly created

   2. Changes in the proportion + demographics of people doing Earning to Give over time

   3. How big is the pool of near-EA funding (e.g. The Navigation Fund)?
