Exciting opportunity for early career economists working on micro-development in Africa @STIAS_SA @StellenboschUni
In the 90s, women were less likely to negotiate their salaries than men. Today, they're more likely to ask... but still get fewer raises. The solution is not to encourage women to advocate for themselves. It’s to change the stereotypes and systems that are biased against them.
Listening to a superb lecture by Sir Angus Deaton. "There are economists whose results cannot be predicted from their political convictions, but sometimes they seem to be too few" #FrancisWilsonMemorial
Professor Sir Angus Deaton will be presenting the 1st Francis Wilson Memorial Lecture on 3 July 2023. This lecture will be presented online and Sir Deaton will share some thoughts on economists and their role in policy. Register - bit.ly/fwml-2023 @SALDRU1 @UCT_news
It is worth knowing that the median income person in WENAO is at the 90th global percentile; and the median income person in the US is at the 93rd global percentile. The world is much poorer than it seems to many.
Despite recent income convergence and reduction in global income inequality gaps between regions remain extremely great.

It’s been five years since Matthew Lester died and I still think of him often. We didn't always agree, but our discussions were always fast-paced, robust and cheerful and I invariably left with a better understanding of the issue and with some hope for rebuilding SA.

This is a disgrace @BBCWorld. Jacinda Ardern has been a longstanding leader and international hero. Because of her, many more women have bigger aspirations and will enjoy bigger successes. She did it all.
Incredibly sad news. Martin Ravallion did much of the best work on the measurement of poverty. I first met him at a workshop in 1998 just after I started my PhD - he was incredibly generous in his advice. When he got back to DC he couriered me a giant box of papers to read.

I work out with two other gays a few times a week and one of them said this morning "I'm going to a gala where we have to wear caftans á la Mrs. Roper from Threes Company" and I heard our very straight, very young trainer just mumble "I didn't understand a word of that sentence."
I know it's a common joke that people gush about their spouses on social media when the marriage is bad. But I can't help myself. This man is unbelievably perfect and I can't believe I get to spend every day with him. I didn't know people like this existed before I found him.
We were getting ready to go to a party and I asked my husband if he thought I was dressed like a dad and he looked at me and said, so sincerely and positively, "you look like a divorced dad who is really trying to get back out there."
