I appreciated your thoughts on making a living writing. I'm in a similar boat having launched a paid investment newsletter a year ago this month. It's like "if I could just 10x my subscribers I'd be all set". I get frustrated at all the marketing, funnels, etc. and just want to focus on the core product. That's perhaps the worst part of it. Anyway enough of this rant, just wanted to say hello to a fellow traveler.

I have to say, it's so disheartening to find that a writer of your calibre can't make this financially viable. I only discovered your work two weeks ago by complete accident. I'm a hard person to get to part with cash but I thought this content is so good that it would be a sin not to be a paying subscriber.

Just some random thoughts -

1. Check Russell Clark - a highly successful fund manager who had the courage to return money before hitting massive losses arguing regime has changed and his HF may not be appropriate.

2. Well Elon Musk said cant change the world with 8-9 hrs a day of work, need to be 16 :D But i think its more about organizing and focus. Elon handles solar cells, space and cars - definitely not possible in 8-9 hours.
