there's a lot of alpha to be gained in experimenting to make non-traditional philanthropy go right
This isn't close to how the Giving Pledge works. More importantly, it highlights the issue of where will the very large tech fortunes eventually go. In the (gated) article, Thiel recounts Musk responding, โWhat am I supposed to doโgive it to my children?โ Many tech founders I've
