Interesting. I could see how the opportunity of writing a substack and scaling it up would be much more attractive to folks that have a lower cost of living than somewhere in the Western world. That's a good point.
That being said, a lot of your posts talk about corporate burnout, no? Wasn't that your story? (Assuming you were pretty well paid, have no idea)

I was well paid for a few years. But didn’t crush it to any level of financial independence due to sick leave from health issues and grad school debt. I had about $50k in savings when I quit and then broke even with income and spending for 3-4 years.

yup. It’s the only life I’ve lived so far 😂
