[New research page] The point of cash transfers is to give different people the freedom to do different things, so there's no one answer to “the impacts” of cash. That said, we've done our best to summarize main lessons from 300+ studies on our new page: bit.ly/2MlDBPD

Entitlement fails

Entitlement fails

An attitude of entitlement doesn’t increase the chances you’ll get what you want. And it ruins the joy of the things you do get. Win or lose, you lose.

Principle is inconvenient

A principle is an approach you stick with even if you know it might lead to a short-term outcome you don’t prefer. Especially then. It’s this gap between the short-term and the long-ter…
