Forget the old concept of retirement and the deferred-life plan, there is no need to wait, especially in unpredictable economic times.

Whether your dream is escaping the rat race, building passive income, travelling the world or creating a remote-working lifestyle, this book will show you how.

In The 4-Hour Workweek, entrepreneur and bestselling author Tim Ferriss shares the practical steps he used to go from earning $40,000 a year and working 80 hours a week to earning $40,000 per MONTH while working just 4 hours a week.

This step-by-step guide to financial freedom reveals how to:
  • Outsource tasks and automate your workload
  • Eliminate 50% of your work in 48 hours
  • Build more freedom, flexibility and work-life balance
  • Trade a long-haul career for short work bursts and frequent ‘mini-retirements’
This updated edition also includes:
  • Practical tips and case studies from readers who doubled their income and reinvented their lives
  • Real-world templates for eliminating email and negotiating with bosses and clients
  • Lifestyle design strategies for thriving in uncertain economic times
  • The latest tools, productivity hacks and high-tech shortcuts for living like a diplomat or millionaire without being either

If you want more freedom, flexibility and control over your time, this is the blueprint.

A long-overdue manifesto for the mobile lifestyle
