I’m very involved in the EA community, but at this point, it seems unlikely that I’ll ever work at an EA organization, because I can’t take the pay cut. I want to start a family and raise kids one day, and to me, this is incompatible with a $50k/year, 12h/day job (at least in the Bay Area).
I’m not sure if earning to give is the best solution to this, but sometimes it seems like the only option available.
