Timothy Ferriss, nominated as one of Fast Company’s “Most Innovative Business People of 2007,” is an angel investor (StumbleUpon, Digg, Twitter, etc.) and author of the #1 New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and BusinessWeek bestseller, The 4-Hour Workweek, which has been sold into 35 languages.
He is also an active education reformer and has architected experimental social media campaigns such as LitLiberation to out-fundraise traditional media figures like Stephen Colbert 3-to-1 at zero cost, building schools overseas and financing more than 25,000 US students in the process. He is on the advisory board of DonorsChoose.org, an educational non-profit and winner at Fast Company’s 2008 Social Capitalist Awards.
Tim received his BA from Princeton University in 2000, where he studied in the Neuroscience and East Asian Studies departments. He developed his nonfiction writing with Pulitzer Prize winner John McPhee and formed his life philosophies under Nobel Prize winner Kenzaburo Oe. He is 32 years old, and The 4-Hour Workweek is his first book.

Forget the old concept of retirement and the rest of the deferred-life plan–there is no need to wait and every reason not to, especially in unpredictable economic times. Whether your dream is escaping the rat race, experiencing high-end world travel, earning a monthly five-figure income with zero management, or just living more and working less, The 4-Hour Workweek is the blueprint.
This step-by-step guide to luxury lifestyle design teaches:
•How Tim went from $40,000 per year and 80 hours per week to $40,000 per month and 4 hours per week
•How to outsource your life to overseas virtual assistants for $5 per hour and do whatever you want
•How blue-chip escape artists travel the world without quitting their jobs
•How to eliminate 50% of your work in 48 hours using the principles of a forgotten Italian economist
•How to trade a long-haul career for short work bursts and frequent “mini-retirements”
The new expanded edition of Tim Ferriss’ The 4-Hour Workweek includes:
•More than 50 practical tips and case studies from readers (including families) who have doubled income, overcome common sticking points, and reinvented themselves using the original book as a starting point
•Real-world templates you can copy for eliminating e-mail, negotiating with bosses and clients, or getting a private chef for less than $8 a meal
•How Lifestyle Design principles can be suited to unpredictable economic times
•The latest tools and tricks, as well as high-tech shortcuts, for living like a diplomat or millionaire without being either
【the myth of 80/20】 Let's put 80/20 in one sentence: Roughly 80% of the effects come from 20% of the causes. [The first truth is,this only apply to garbage things/activities] When you are reading a garbage book,of course 80% of the useness come from 20%...
评分书其实还没读完。 我书读得不多,所以对于书中作者提的一些前人就提出过的观点我是第一次接触。 书读到一半,我已经觉得要实现这样的梦想,似乎还有点远。 关于远程工作。中国老板很多还是很难接受的。除非是公司中老顶尖的人物,否则跟老板申请远程工作的话,老板会说,你不愿...
评分1、D和NR想法的不一样,例如这几方面: ①.工作时可以有迷你退休,退休不是终极目标,它就像人寿保险,预防身体不能再工作时要靠积蓄来过日子。等人体机能退化再享受就无意义了; ②.兴趣和精力有高潮和低谷的周期变化。我们的生存需要将工作和休息交替着进行,更别说...

评分这本书是我的打鸡血书单里的一员大将。老罗说,当年他要考GRE时买回了100本励志书,每次要放弃的时候就翻开两三本,看了立马又充满力量。I can't agree more。人在两种时刻就要看这种打鸡血的书,一是犯拖延症迟迟不想开始行动的时候,二是遭遇挫折想要放弃的时候。 今天我属...
不得不承认我现在(或许是暂时的)皈依Tim Ferriss教。 虽然不是很清楚怎么从目前的境地到达4-hour workweek的程度,但是我相信慢慢来不要急一定会有方法的。
评分A quarter of boasting random achievements, a quarter of repetitive blog post compilation, and a quarter of shameless promotion of his other books. I'm left with one takeaway which is it's about time for me to hire a personal assistant.
评分MAYBE it will change your life
