Publisher's Summary

Tim Ferriss is an extraordinary young man on a mission. The 28-year-old serial vagabond and successful entrepreneur has been teaching a wildly popular course at Princeton University for the past four years: a how-to and why-to guide to throwing out the old methods for success (balancing life and work, retiring well, having a great nest egg) and replacing them with an entirely new way of living.

The 4 Hour Work Week explains what a lifestyle entrepreneur is and why you should want to become one. It teaches you how to "kill" your job and design a life, the 80/20 rule and how it increases productivity, how to replace your dreams with goals, and more. Listeners can lead a rich life by working only four hours a week, freeing up the rest of their time to spend it living the lives they want.

What the Critics Say

"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." (Jack Canfield)
"Thanks to Tim Ferriss, I have more time in my life to travel, spend time with family, and write book blurbs. This is a dazzling and highly useful work." (A.J. Jacobs, Editor-at-Large, Esquire)

By: Robert (USA)
February 05, 2010
The book content is great but the guy who is doing the reading is horrible! He sounds lifeless and put no enthusiasm into the reading to the point that I lost interest in the book as a result and couldn't make it 20 minutes through the book on tape.

A definite buy the book instead!

The book got me to dream again. Without a dream you have only one direction Mediocrity. Lets leave your job and work for yourself.

By: John (Arvada, CO, USA)

Don't bother with listening to the whole book. Listen to a sample, or read the back flap and you will learn everything you need to know about this book. I listened to about 75% of the book, which turned out to be 73% too much.

Not worthwhile finishing listening - the author is clearly immature and doesn't like people (in general)
