I'm a little confused about how the "career network" part syncs up with the "donating substantial amounts relative to income" bit. Are people helping each other find paid employment, or helping each other find grants, or what?

So far it's been only about people helping each other find paid employment, but helping each other find grants is also a good idea, thanks.

Wait, so, then what on earth does "for anyone interested in donating substantial amounts (relative to income) to non-profit organizations" mean? Do you help each other get jobs on Wall Street so you can donate the money?

That's the basic idea, yes.

Most people in the network are looking for jobs as programmers. The second most popular job category is finance.
