Hit 1000+ email signups

It's been about 4 months since I hit 800 emails and I guess I've added people at a rate of about 50/month, but this is the goal I had hoped to reach at 1 year of writing this newsletter and instead its been almost two years.

One thing I'm consistently surprised about is that the quality of people signing up to read what I write is impressive. There are professional investors both private and public as well as professional chemists, engineers, and marketers that constantly remind me that there are not many writers like me out there.

I've also started to bring some more consistency to the monthly revenue of the newsletter and I'm typically hovering somewhere between $80-500/month for the last few months. Having a slew of products on stripe has been fantastic.

Knowing that people will pay me just a bit of money to read this stuff is really motivating and it gives me hope that when I start to put some things behind a paywall then people might actually sign-up.

See a customer base starting to form on Stripe is great data to have and I just need to put some more thought into how I go paid full time.
