Hey Clara, congrats on taking the pledge! My guess on this question is that you’d need a lot more people to give before you saw macro-economic effects. But people’s giving does differ greatly country to country, so I’m sure there is some economic work on the effects of that on savings, investment, wages etc! Also- welcome to the Forum! Let me know if you have any questions about how it works.
I agree that to observe macroeconomic effects something has to be broad scale and my question was quite speculative.
On the other hand, about the Forum, I see that posts are like essays and appear informative. I wonder what is the right place to things that might be interesting or valuable, but don’t fit the general vibe, for instance, just a question. Do they belong in here? As quick takes?

Yep quick takes are the best spot for more speculative, early stage, or short thoughts :)
