BOOK DESCRIPTION
Can you live like a millionaire without being one? The New Rich do. Now Tim Ferriss shows you how.
Forget the rat race and saving for retirement. In The 4-Hour Workweek, based on his popular guest lectures at Princeton University, Tim shows how members of a new subculture use simple tactics to live like the ultrarich without first working 30 years or 80 hour weeks.
This guide to the new trend of Lifestyle Design - where time and mobility are king - shows readers:
-Real case studies of how to automate income and make per month what most make per year, while working less than 10 hours per week. From the latest technological tricks to little-known tricks of geoarbitrage, it's all here.
-How to outsource your life and do whatever you want for a year, only to return to a bank account 50% larger than when you left.
-How to travel the globe in luxury without quitting your job, even with a family.
-How to "fill the void" once you have time abundance and how to create purpose without income-driven work.
Tim's manifesto, already dubbed by critics as "more than a book, a de facto
manual for the adventure-starved masses," will be available nationwide through Crown Publishing (Random House) on April 24, 2007. The book's companion site at www.fourhourworkweek.com - including free resources and bonus chapters - will also debut at that time.
