Fantastic book, even if you're not going to go the "whole hog" and spend the next 5 years vegabonding.

Tim Ferris weaves a great overview of how to unplug from today's mad-rush & hectic lifestyles. He provides just enough personal stories to give you the feeling you can do it yourself, without it sounding like an AutoBiography. Great tips on Time Management that should be manditory for everyone who has an email address, step-by-step instructions on how to become part of the 'new rich'.

Buy it.

Tim captures what many of us are seeking in our lives of 9 to 5, which these days are more like 7 to 7 or 8 to 8 or some combination of the same, brought about by the high requirement to produce a range of results from an in-balanced portfolio of priorities. What I liked about the book was that finally here was someone who had done the walk and talked it along the way also, he has come up with some practical and easily appliable (sp) processes to get you to the four hour week, I havent been able to quite get there but some simple strategies like email handling and meeting holding have already made some dramatic savings in time and interruption. What Tim does at least is begin the process of getting you to think about a strategy for change and like most 'self help' books, which is not a true genre for his book but something we at least understand, it is about helping yourself, nothing comes from nothing and the definition of insanity that we have all heard is that continuing to do the same and expecting different results is exactly that, insane. But from someone who has read a huge plethora of this type of book am pleased to say that small steps of advice from Tim do work.

This is a fantastic book. It allowed me to view my work in a totally different light and gave me heaps of ideas and strategies for alternative streams of income. It contains information on ways to simplify your life and enjoy yourself more. One thing that it emphasised for me is that we really can become so much more than what we currently are!
