Summary
Ready to escape the 9-5 and find a new way of living? Learn how to live more and work less with the revolutionary book from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Tools of Titans.

Forget the old concept of retirement and the deferred-life plan, there is no need to wait, especially in unpredictable economic times.

Whether your dream is escaping the rat race, building passive income, travelling the world or creating a remote-working lifestyle, this book will show you how.

In The 4-Hour Workweek, entrepreneur and bestselling author Tim Ferriss shares the practical steps he used to go from earning $40,000 a year and working 80 hours a week to earning $40,000 per MONTH while working just 4 hours a week.

This step-by-step guide to financial freedom reveals how to:


- Outsource tasks and automate your workload
- Eliminate 50% of your work in 48 hours
- Build more freedom, flexibility and work-life balance
- Trade a long-haul career for short work bursts and frequent ‘mini-retirements’


This updated edition also includes:


- Practical tips and case studies from readers who doubled their income and reinvented their lives
- Real-world templates for eliminating email and negotiating with bosses and clients
- Lifestyle design strategies for thriving in uncertain economic times
- The latest tools, productivity hacks and high-tech shortcuts for living like a diplomat or millionaire without being either


If you want more freedom, flexibility and control over your time, this is the blueprint.

I was excited to finally having found the newest edition such that I could listen with my book at the same time. However, this is not at all the same. THIS IS NOT THE LATEST EDITION.

Tedious to listen to especially with the websites - refer the reader to 4-hour work week website, perhaps? Could have been summarised in 4 hours. There are lessons worth learning and taking action on.

Great book to change your perspective on work and how to manage your greatest asset: time

It's interesting. Feels heavily geared to an American audience and as a South African it felt impractical. not my favourite read

The concepts and approaches are something which Tim has interpreted and found suitable for his routine and practices. I would strongly recommend all readers to have thorough understanding of concepts, before you apply on your lives. It can cause serious impact. You can use this book from a perspective to better manage and apply key principles to improve on your productivity. But be wise to apply it in the right way.

I have to say it went completely over my head. Feels like it is geared more towards office workers rather than the general worker. I guess it could be useful for self employed persons as well.

This is the book which made me to think another way to work. What is the corelation between work, money and time. Must read to come out from rat race.

Tim Ferris has some good humour incorporated into the book which is often difficult to achieve. Thoroughly enjoyed. Maybe a tad long and repetitive in areas but overall a good educator.
