Tim Ferriss has trouble defining what he does for a living. 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 that has abandoned the 'deferred-life plan' and
instead mastered the new currencies - time and mobility - to create a
new way of living. Why wait a lifetime for your retirement when you can
enjoy luxury now? Whether your dream is escaping the rat race,
experiencing first class world travel, earning a monthly five-figure
income with no management, or just living more and working less, this
book is the blueprint.Join
Tim Ferriss as he teaches you: 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 per cent of your work
in 48 hours using the principles of a forgotten Italian economist; how
exchange your career for life for short work bursts and frequent
'mini-retirements'; how to train your boss to value performance over
presence, or kill your job (or company) if it's beyond repair; how to
cultivate selective ignorance - and create time - with a
low-information diet; how to get free housing worldwide and airfare at
50-80 per cent off; how to fill the void and create a meaningful life
after removing work and the office; and learn about this and more to
live the life you want - now. --This text refers to the
