Free vs Paid

You don’t need to pay to get value from FU Money Plan.

Most of what I write is free. Paid is for people who want to go deeper into the numbers, decisions and mechanics behind what I’m writing about.

Free

Free subscribers get my essays, stories and bigger-picture thinking around three areas:

Get Recognized
Positioning, personal branding and becoming known for what you know.

Get Paid
Offers, pricing, monetization, income streams and different ways of turning your skills and experience into something you own.

How I Got Here
My personal writing about career collapse, reinvention, business, money and rebuilding.

You’ll also get Notes and access to the subscriber conversation around the publication.

If you only ever stay free, that’s completely fine. There will still be plenty to read and use.

FU Money Plan

Paid

Paid supporters get what I call Full Receipts.

That’s where I go underneath the story and show you things like:

  • Actual revenue and costs

  • Pricing experiments

  • Business-model economics

  • What worked and what didn’t

  • Mistakes that cost me money

  • The decisions I’d make differently now

  • Calculators, worksheets and decision tools

  • Case studies and numbers from other entrepreneurs willing to share them

For example, I’m currently breaking down the economics behind my former paid membership business: what it generated, what the platform cost, what I paid my VA, how much time I spent running it, and what actually made the model profitable.

That level of detail is what paid is for.

Free gets the ideas. Paid gets the receipts.

Paid supporters also get additional perks and discounts, which I update as FU Money grows.

One important distinction: your subscription gives you access to my deeper research, tools and thinking. Personalized advice, audits and advisory are separate unless they’re specifically included in a current promotion or perk.

Not sure yet? Stay free. Read a few things first.

If you eventually find yourself thinking, Okay, but what were the actual numbers? — paid is probably for you.
