Thanks for this post jh. It’s an interesting idea that indeed seems worth exploring more. As an aside/​Just musing, I wonder whether there are opportunities to correlate things that we’d like to be correlated with each other beyond philanthropy, e.g. in our careers or personal lives.
Just quickly riffing on the example in this post, if you have a great business idea that will only work under one politician you might bet on them. Or if you think one politician will be good for your current job, but the other could make it optimal for you to retrain and change jobs, then bet on the other. Or if one will make you want to leave the country, then bet on them to help with your moving costs.

Thanks Sjir. Interesting thought to muse on.
