Very nice. I wonder how much these gaps change depending on which cohorts are considered (or in which year income is measured). The composition of flows changes drastically from decade to decade, so I would take the results with caution

Going to give this website a try - with a new profile picture! Definitely feels like an econ bubble, but I guess that’s the point.

Expect a thread on my newest work, Malthusian Migrations (with @romainwacziarg.bsky.social), soon! 🚨
