I came here to ask the same question and say this. I can’t believe that Money Stuff is free.
Yeah it especially doesn't make sense since most of Bloomberg is paywalled. Even the web view of Money Stuff is paywalled I think? But the newsletter is not.

None, because the absolute last thing I need is more email and I’m really not sure who ever though that trying to get people to sign up to get more email was a good idea.
For me, Substack has a reputation problem. All Substack's I've seen shared (on HN) have spouted outlandish claims and had zero (or little) "evidence" to back their claims up. Of course it's just a platform and it is probably made up of some great content too, but the bad content has turned me off to the platform. So I guess none here as well.
Despite all these wannabes, there are probably 30 or so high-quality substacks that are actually worth reading. I wouldn't dismiss the entire platform.
Shameless plug, I write Mostly Python, so I read that many times before it hits my inbox. :)

Yeah, web view is paywalled unfortunately. I wish I could read it via RSS, but it’s pretty much the one newsletter/blog type thing that I don’t mind getting in my inbox.
I do this using https://kill-the-newsletter.com/ -- it's a great service
Curtis Yarvin / Mencius Moldbug: https://graymirror.substack.com/ Not because I agree with or idolize the guy, but simply because what he says tends to veer on the provocative side. Provocative, by definition, is interesting.
I started off with Glenn Greenwald because of his past with the Snowden work, but over time his style put me off.
