Question for those who have more experience working with co-authors then me: At the end of the month my Dropbox subscription renews for 150 dollars. Currently my co-authors and I are using it for a project but I have access to my OneDrive and our university GoogleDrive for free! Thoughts?

I’ve got a new working paper with @danielavidart.bsky.social, hot off the press. We develop a new method for measuring the risk preferences of agents in the past, and apply it to the U.S. from 1890-1920.

Check it out! Feedback is welcome.
