Changed my life!!!!!

Think you have to spend the rest of your life in a cubicle or work yourself to death in a job demanding a 50+ hour work week, just to ensure your kids grow up to do the same?
This book got me on track to become self employed, cut the work-clutter and spend time with my kids while still earning a full income...
Thanks Tim...

I recommend reading over listening

Many urls are read out, which is not helpful or memorable, just awkward.

he said/she said conversations are difficult to listen to and parse.

An interesting look at holiday destinations

An enjoyable casual read

Will inspire you to make a change

I avoided listening to this book for years, so glad I changed my mind. It is going to help me change my life.

Amazing!

I just wanted it to keep going! Ready to smash it now though. Thanks Tim!

Inspiring

Life changing no matter if you buy into the whole package or not. This book will make you think about how and what you do. Very well read and easy to listen too. Though as another reader mentioned, the reading of the full web addresses etc was a bit tedious

fantastic book

Not one of your old Self Help reads but something that genuinely made me think, I was able to implement and change my working life forever!

Inspriational!

Warning! Do not read if you are not prepared to take some action... if you do then you will find that the situations that used to be quite bearable suddenly become less so. All of a sudden you will be able to see more...

This is a fabulous book filled with some great ideas. The narration is good though sometimes the list of websites/resources does become a little repetitive. Whilst these lists make sense in the hard copy, in audiobook form they are less useful.

However you won't be disappointed with this book and it will take you to new places...

A Real Game Changer!!

Really make you think differently about life, how you work and what is important. Not sure I'll get to the fully integrated model Tim propose, but st least it has kick started me in developing new web site that we will test and hope to develop our business with.

Will Change Your Life If You Act On It!

What did you love best about The 4-Hour Work Week?

Timothy Ferriss has a simple yet supremely powerful way of approaching life that leaves no doubt that working 40-100 hours a week for someone else will only ruin you.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The 4-Hour Work Week?

Each chapter has unique steps and thought-provoking questions to drag you kicking a screaming out of your cave and into the light, where you can examine yourself and realise where you can improve and / or take action.

Have you listened to any of Ray Porter’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I haven't listened to Ray Porter before, but he speaks this book very well - it sounds as if Timothy Ferriss is actually talking to me!

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Joining the New Rich is easier than you think!
