What are the best estimates out there of heterogeneity in "income effects" over the income distribution?

By income effects, I mean the effect on your income (or labor supply) of receiving a lump sum transfer or payment?

In my experience, we are not so good at applying our insights to ourselves. 😂

We could pay deposits and turn it into an all pay auction.

Hi #EconSky! I’m Huihuang, a labor economist studying education and inequality. In this thread, I’ll introduce my JMP, “On the Right Track? Evaluating the Achievement and Inequality Effects of Academic Tracking,” which provides the first causal evidence on the long-run effects of tracking. (1/9)

This is very cool. I like it.

Hehe fantastic! I hadn’t heard that one. Has some similarities. I love these kinds of tales that get passed down.

This is optimal.

I don’t know the answer to that. But I do know a recipe for galah soup. Wisdom that goes back a long way in Australia. You put the galah and a stone in a pot of boiling water. You keep cooking it, possibly for a long time, until the stone is soft. Then you throw out the galah and eat the stone.

Add me? :)

You weren’t wrong though

Hey this is useful

Oh you are here. This is good.
