Too often financial newsletters are solely about the next investment idea that, once public, normalizes the expected risk-adjusted return. Refreshing to read Devin’s work. Rich and thoughtful and this take on the business of writing is very helpful to how I should approach Personal Finance Economics on Substack. Thank you Devin!
Thanks for reading and taking the time to leave such a thoughtful comment, Robert. As I touched on in this piece, I don't think there is a long list of rules to follow, and we should experiment. I'm grateful for the progress I've made and hope that sharing part of my process is helpful to others, but I am certain there are a wide range of ways to 'win'. We each get to define the game we play and how the points are tallied.
Thank you, Javier. Along with your support, I'm deeply appreciative of your work and the opportunity to learn from it, and I especially admire your ability to synthesize financial nuance into approachable pieces.
Congratulations and well deserved! You put out great works that are usually not what I’m looking at so it’s nice to get different perspectives and opinions
Devin your work consistently rises above the fray. Congrats on a year of writing and impressive, well-deserved reader growth. This line captures perfectly why I began writing and why I plan on never stopping:
"I wasn’t writing - I was note-taking. Poorly. It was only by transitioning from easy-note-taker to hard-gap-filler that I found the power of writing. My thinking became clearer. So did my words."
Great piece Devin and congratulations on your anniversary - impressive. Enjoyed your reflections on the business of writing which maps my own experience publishing religiously every Friday come hell or highwater for the last three and a quarter years.
Last week you shared with us your investment process. Today your writing process. Thank you for everything Devin and I wish you many more years refining your crafts and sharing with us!
Tian, you've been a major supporter and I am grateful. You've provided a great deal of feedback and it means a great deal to me. I'm looking forward to following your work as well.

Thanks, YZ. The culture of the Finance Substack community continues to blow me away, and I feel fortunate to be part of it.

Thanks, Hunter. And completely agreed. I can't ever stop writing - I'd be lost without it.
Congrats Devin - keep up the great work!
