I'm trying to understand the OP's perspective... I've always thought of Earnest Capital as an investment company that's differentiated by being founder-friendly? Are you under a different perspective?

So it seems like if they only hit it off with X founders then they should only invest in X companies/founders? They're putting the emphasis on living with people as opposed to quick exits?

So it seems like @bentossel's review of them should mean a lot more than the number of investments or the dollar amounts?

One problem that investors, revenue and profit can't always fix is working with terrible people, btw.

Hey All! A little back story here... I've always hated shopping and then some friends (and my wife) encouraged me to do a capsule closet.

It's been working really well! I have fewer clothing decisions than ever and look good!

So I wanted to make a list of sites that make this approach possible. Feel free to add PRs. I would love that!

Hmm. I didn't quite realize that, honestly. I don't plan to monetize hi.remotetogether.com. I could maybe see ads at some point on there? But that's about it. I have other monetization strategies. Like create an actual product.

Also, I would say what Levels.io has done with nomadslist.com is exceptional. I've used it for a couple of trips (Vacations - DigitalNomad-ing) I've been on. I realize you may not be a big fan of him, but he's done some good! Just food for thought.

Thanks for the responses though. Very. Very. Very. Insightful. Things I hadn't considered.

yeah - no problem. This isn't quite for Digital Nomads really. Honestly, I think digital nomads already have a community... I work from home. I don't work from other countries really.

So my vision is to create a community of Remote workers. http://levels.io has done a great job of creating a community for Digital Nomads. RemoteTogether is more for the people who work from home and spend upwards of 10 hours at home working.
