Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:What do you do? Tim Ferriss has trouble answering the question. Depending on when you ask this controversial Princeton University guest lecturer, he might answer: "I race motorcycles in Europe." "I ski in the Andes." "I scuba dive in Panama." "I dance tango in Buenos Aires." He has spent more than five years learning the secrets of the New Rich, a fast-growing subculture who has abandoned the "deferred-life plan" (slaversaver retire) and instead mastered the new currencies — time and mobility — to create luxury lifestyles in the here and now. Whether you are an overworked employee or an entrepreneur trapped in your own business, this book is the compass for a new and revolutionary world. Join Tim Ferriss as he teaches you: What the crucial difference is between absolute and relative income, how to train your boss to value performance over presence, or kill your job (or company) if it’s beyond repair, what automated cash-flow "muses" are and how to create one in 2 to 4 weeks, how to cultivate selective ignorance — and create time with a low-information diet, what the management secrets of Remote Control CEOs are, how to get free housing worldwide and airfare at 50 — 80% off, and how to fill the void and create a meaningful life after removing work and the office. You can have it all — really. Review:"It's about time this book was written. It is a long-overdue manifesto for the mobile lifestyle, and Tim Ferriss is the ideal ambassador. This will be huge." Jack Canfield, Co-creator of Chicken Soup for the Soul Review:"This is a whole new ball game. Highly recommended." Dr. Stewart D. Friedman, Adviser to Jack Welch and Former Vice President Al Gore on Work/Family Issues Director of the Work/Life Integration Project, The Wharton School Review:"Stunning and amazing. From mini-retirements to outsourcing your life, it's all here. Whether you're a wage slave or a Fortune 500 CEO, this book will change your life!" Phil Town, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author of Rule #1 Review:"Timothy has packed more lives into his 29 years than Steve Jobs has in his 51." Tom Foremski, Journalist and Publisher of SiliconValleyWatcher.com Synopsis:Based on Ferriss's controversial lectures at Princeton University, this resource shows how members of a new subculture use simple loopholes and tactics to escape the 9-5 workday, live anywhere, and join the New Rich, with complete freedom of time and place.
