I really appreciate this culture of sharing donation decisions, and admire the reasoning transparency on display here.
I started at CEA this week, and my donation decisions are still incomplete, so I didn’t join in on this post. However, after reading it, I think it would be worthwhile to share where I’m at. I made a resolution to donate 10% this year, for the first year since I became interested in EA in 2019 (I might write about why I delayed this decision in a future post). So far this has meant putting 10% of every paycheck into a pot in my Monzo which accrues some interest while I defer thinking about where the money should go.
Like Lizka, I’ve decided to donate £1000 to the Donation Election Fund (though, like Lizka, I’m also involved in the project). I’m hoping that the conversations on the Forum leading up to and during the Donation election week will help me decide where to put the rest of my money this year. I’m publicly committing that it will all go somewhere before 2024.

Just updating that it now has! More details in the donation thread.
