I had a few people indicate that they would be willing to support a paid Substack. I am thinking about the possibilities, but my initial reaction is that the easiest way for readers to support my writing is to buy lots of copies of my books. (The website Books2Read has links for all my books at all online bookstores:
I subscribe to many newsletters here but I went for paid in only one. That one provides regular reporting directly relevant to my work and makes me better at my job - the subscription price is cheap compared to the value.
For most of the others, there is relatively little value in what they give me. I am happy using my time to mine them for the occasional nuggets of gold (new-to-me insight). Paying double digits euros per month per newsletter is just too expensive for that.
I was happy to buy and binge read your books. The one-time payment was quite reasonable compared to the value. I am skeptical I could justify an ongoing subscription charge unless it's present value is comparable to buying all your books - and I suspect that would not be worth your while.
Then again, I would be very interested in macro commentary from a MMT point of view - not at the detail required for consulting professional investors but at an educational level. With a sufficient level of regular insight, it might be worth a reasonable subscription fee.

It's ok to go with paid subs , but pls make it reasonable so that the average size trader can read and learn
