Very short description for use in the program to help attendees understand more than a title can describe
This study examines whether a lump-sum distribution or a regular, small distribution of the same total amount from several other types of hypothetical windfalls - bonus from work, game show winnings, lottery winnings or inheritance - would be spent or saved differently from a tax rebate, and whether timing matters for each source of windfall in the same way as earlier studies have predicted. Thus, this project could have practical implications for behavioral economic theory and compensation theory.
