So I have this new project that’s really just “The Growing Life 2.0.” It’s called Finance Your Freedom, and I’ve talked about it at length here. I just finished hiring an assistant to help with the site (god, that sounds so “hardcore” even thought it isn’t), and I’ve partnered with a fancy top secret crazy person to help make the site not suck.
(So if you’re interested in my new non-sucking project, go nab an RSS subscription to it before they’re all gone). Or subscribe to the Finance Your Freedom newsletter here:
Anyway, I’ve received over a hundred emails of encouragement (thank you!), but a few people have been suspicious. I appreciate those emails too. Here’s my response.
But don’t get too worked up about FYF. I’m not worked up. I’m just this guy whose stumbled upon a bunch of ideas and tactics and stuff that’s helped me and some friends to quit our day jobs. (This stuff might work for you too).
(By the way, as a result of my freedom I’ve been able to move to California for a bit to spend time with my grandfather who’s experiencing the early stages of Alzheimer’s. Which has been really nice. I love lifestyle design).
One last thing: sometime really soon (within the next 5 days) your Growing Life subscription will convert to a Finance Your Freedom subscription.
(What comes next for The Growing Life’s domain name isn’t certain right now . . . maybe I’ll delete all my articles and replace them with gross looking ads for casinos and Viagra and then hire a bunch of people to click on them; just kidding).
For articles that suck less than the leading competitor, subscribe to Finance Your Freedom.

Impermanence is one of the few predictable things about this life. Each choice you make is another stage of your personal evolution. Its nice to hear you choose to spend time with your grandfather. He appreciates that.
I was just starting to get to know you and your blog. Darn. But I will look at your new one before taking it off my site. I am curious now because you have a lot of readers of your old blog – - I figure the new idea must be good. 
Hey hope the new site is as good as this one.
Looking forward to the Viagra ads on this domain

Even the title is interesting. I hope it is as good and gives a lot of ideas as this one.
Enjoy the time with your grandfather. I went through that a few years ago. Looking back I’m glad I had that time.
I think l need some more dosage! But take good care of your lovely grandfather!
Cool stuff! I love the idea and the title.
Everyone on the internet is talking about financial freedom especially people who are promoting quick-rich schemes. The title “Finance your freedom” is totally new and interesting to me. I’m looking forward to see that!
Hi Clay!
Found your ’4hww vs GTD’ smackdown post and larfed and larfed. Thanks for that. Basically the same things had been bothering me about GTD, but I couldn’t put it into words – and thus couldn’t discount the parts that needed discounting. I appreciate your eloquence greatly.
Be well, enjoy time with your grandfather, and look into 3 supplements for him – Alzheimer’s is not so complicated after all, it seems. Alpha-lipoic acid, Acetyl-L-Carnitine, and Carnosine (taken in very high dosages and in conjunction) seem to progressively reverse Alzheimer’s in every study performed. It’s not the cheapest regimen at around $120-$180/month, but check it out.
I’m sure I’m about to enjoy more fun and useful reading.
The growing life 2.0 sounds cool =)
Clay, The Growing Life was one of the first blogs I really got into reading… and in fact the first that I got an RSS feed to. It also helped inspire me to create my own blog a little while back, chronicling the path to mental clarity, happiness, freedom and lasting fulfillment. (Note that I didn’t really create it to finance my freedom, but because I enjoy having it.)
The Growing Life is one of the first sites I put up a link to. Hope people will find mine to be helpful as well.
