Ben, between your comments these ones I made, and AGB’s comments above, I’m thinking of writing not a direct rebuttal to Peter Hurford’s estimates of ideal proportion of ETG:direct-work, but a post called “When Should You Go Into Direct Work”, which would be a list of heuristic considerations of when someone should consider going into direct work vs. earning to give. I think it’s important to make a visible response to Peter undoing a potential misconception earning to give is a better fit than some kind of direct work than a few disparate comments we’ve made. I especially think your points 3 and 5-7 are important considerations for individuals EAs making career choices, significant plan changes, etc.
Would you like to read or comment on the draft of such a post when it’s available?
