The 4-hour workweek : escape 9-5, live anywhere, and join the new rich / Timothy Ferriss.

Four-hour workweek (other title)
Ferriss, Timothy, (author.).

Summary:

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, here is the blueprint. This step-by-step guide to luxury lifestyle design teaches: how Tim went from 40,000 dollars per year and 80 hours per week to 40,000 dollars per month and 4 hours per week; how to outsource your life to overseas virtual assistants for 5 dollars 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."--From publisher description.
