The 4-Hour Workweek, Expanded and Updated by Timothy Ferriss Book Summary

The New York Times bestselling author of The 4-Hour Body shows readers how to live more and work less, now with more than 100 pages of new, cutting-edge content.

Forget the old concept of retirement and the rest of the deferred-life plan–there is no need to wait and every reason not to, especially in unpredictable economic times. Whether your dream is escaping the rat race, experiencing high-end world travel, or earning a monthly five-figure income with zero management, The 4-Hour Workweek is the blueprint.

This step-by-step guide to luxury lifestyle design teaches:
• How Tim went from $40,000 per year and 80 hours per week to $40,000 per month and 4 hours per week
• How to outsource your life to overseas virtual assistants for $5 per hour and do whatever you want
• How blue-chip escape artists travel the world without quitting their jobs
• How to eliminate 50% of your work in 48 hours using the principles of a forgotten Italian economist
• How to trade a long-haul career for short work bursts and frequent “mini-retirements”

The new expanded edition of Tim Ferriss’ The 4-Hour Workweek includes:
• More than 50 practical tips and case studies from readers (including families) who have doubled income, overcome common sticking points, and reinvented themselves using the original book as a starting point
• Real-world templates you can copy for eliminating e-mail, negotiating with bosses and clients, or getting a private chef for less than $8 a meal
• How Lifestyle Design principles can be suited to unpredictable economic times
• The latest tools and tricks, as well as high-tech shortcuts, for living like a diplomat or millionaire without being either

Life Changing. There are so many powerful seeds planted in this life changing book, I don't even know where to begin. My best advice is to pick it up and check it out for yourself. It teaches you to work smart, not hard.

Don't believe this awful book. This book is absolutely horrible and dangerous. My husband and I purchased it after he retired from the military and it's the most delusional, unrealistic and dangerous advice we've ever read. The author is a self serving, deceiving manipulator that makes money off of lying to people. It's completely disrespectful to hard working people that actually care about others and their families.

Possibilities are endless!. This book isn't just about a four hour work week. I think it has information that can help people become more efficient at their current job. It also inspired me to think of additional sources of income that I can explore. Tim is brilliant! It is a good read just to see his thought process.

Great for young adults. As a twenty year old college student, life happens fast. You can get so caught up in everything to do and lose track of what you could be. This book has been a real eye opener. I have been feeling as though my life has been missing some happiness and purpose. This book has given me the wisdom to slow down and ask the hard questions. Very eye opening and well written!

Mind shifting. Tim Ferriss has totally changed my thinking and how I approach life after reading this book.

How Life Should Be Lived. I can't say enough about what this book can give you the freedom to do. If you hate the 9-5 rat race, never liked being an employee, thought there was more to life than working to live and living to work then this book might be exactly the tool to get you out of the mundane cycle of employment we're all taught is the 'smart' or 'safe' route. If you are small minded, insecure or afraid to really experience the world and what you are capable of, do not read this book. You will hate it. Stick to your routine and grumble your way through life. This is for those ready to really live.

Wow. I am currently in a work for work's sake position and have been doing so for the last 8 years. This book has opened my eyes and reminded me that there is more out there besides work more/earn more. I have begun putting these principles in place and am starting to see results. I am nervous, scared, excited, curious, and optimistic what the future holds for my family.

Best book EVER. At first I thought a 4-hour workweek sounded too good to be true, but after reading this and looking into all of the tools and links he gives the reader, it's legit and actually possible! Definitely recommend it :)

Excellent!. This book is very controversial to the status quo! Which means this is a very good book to read since the majority of people are full of mindless drivel and easily dismiss things as nonsense especially if it requires one to take a new perspective on something as deeply rooted in ones psyche as their profession or in most cases their life since most people associate their life to their job! Answer this question. What do you do? If you would normally answer this question with your job title or the company you work for you should probably read this book. But then again don't take my word for it this is again your life. Good luck

Practical, realistic and encouraging. I'm not in the "corporate" world but I found Tim's information and advise very applicable to me. As a public school teacher, I have limits but the concepts of "mini-retirements" just made my summers a whole lot more interesting. With the tips, I can now put a plan in place to spend at least 6 weeks doing something adventurous. Thanks, Tim!

Excited about what's to come!. I couldn't put this down. It really spoke to me and I started practicing some of the steps immediately upon reading them. I've learned to automate, delegate, and extricate myself from some of the mundane at work. I was encouraged because it worked! This is a must-read and will become a favorite book of mine to gift.

Lots of Hyperlinks and Repetition, But Worthwhile. 30% of the book is comprised of hyperlinks to sites that the author thinks are interesting. Of the remainder, there is a good amount of repetition of philosophy about work/life balance and there is encouragement to live a particular lifestyle. It's a decent book and it motivated me, but I was turned off by certain parts.

The 4-Hour Workweek. This book has the power to change your life! This is something everyone should own. Worth every penny! When you are done reading it, you will unlock the secrets of how to live life, be successful, and enjoy your time on earth all at the same time. You will break the chains of slavery of the American work force.

Ok for someone starting out. I am already past a lot of the ideas this book speaks to. I figured a lot of this out on my own just on my journey thru life. It is overall a good book. I would recommend to someone in the beginning stages of their career.

The best book you'll find. It is an absolute disgrace that this book only has an overall 4 star rating. This review probably won't be very informative, but just read the darn book! You won't regret it. If you do, you are probably pretty shortsighted.

Wow. What a great book. My entertainment friend commended this book to me and I loved it. Fantastic and I recommend it everyone I come in contact with.

This book is great. This is a great read for who want to slowdown and enjoy life more!

Online. I don’t think you need this book, It’s content can be found online.

Insightful. Great tips to lead a more productive and hoppy professional and personal life

MUST READ FOR FREEDOM SEEKERS. Just read it and you’ll understand. I have been on a quest pursuing freedom for my family for over 13 years. That will be accomplished in the next few months thanks to the recommendation to read this book by the primary influencer in my life, friend and mentor. I keep telling my wife “you have to read it.” The mindset in this book, examples and resources are massively helpful when infused in everyday life. Thanks Ben. S. & Tim. F.!

Read It Now!!. Amazing book. Eye opening and well written!! I am about to read it for the second time so I can extract all the juicy information to D.E.A.L. my life!! I Highly recommend that you read this book now. I wish I would have found this book years ago! Learn how to liberate yourself from the 9-5 grind and live the life you were meant to live!

Tons of big promises short on execution. Guy is a bigmouth. I'm halfway through and all I see is self aggrandizement and wild promises

Awesome book with one complaint. I love the book. It was a great easy read and has definitely made me think about how I can more automate my income and business to give me more time and money to do the things I enjoy. My only negative regrading the book is the minimalist or somewhat small thinking in terms of the end goals. For most, maybe extended travel would be enough to satisfy or a simplistic lifestyle jet setting with low cost fares would be great but for those of you who want opulence and riches beyond belief the book will help you get started and may get you there but it plays down the idea of true wealth too much. To some the goal is to not simply do but to so so opulently as well. Still, I found the book highly insightful and helpful and plan to put the principles, and there are many, to use immediately. Great read.

Powerful. Funny, straightforward, compelling and encouraging. Well written and detailed with great resources and references. A clear must have for those working endless hours with dreams of escaping the rat race!

Life changing. This book forever changed the way that I look at time management. Tim highlights common self defeating habits that many of us do on a daily basis and gives actionable steps for how to remedy them. He also gives great advice for navigating office politics, traveling the world on little money, and just generally getting everything we all want out of this thing called life.

Living Proof. The 4-Hour Workweek has changed my life forever. In fact, our family is currently on a 9-month around-the-world journey, inspired and fueled by Ferris' principles (I'm writing this review in Prague, while my business back home foots the bill). Highly recommended not just for those seeking to escape the Rat Race, but for anyone seeking to make their business or life more efficient and rewarding.

Highly recommend!. This is a must-read if you’ve ever questioned if there was something fundamentally flawed with the 9-5 life. The answer is in this book!

Life Changing!. Like being awaken from the Matrix.

Decent Book About Time Management. The first half of this book was filled with gems on managing time better. One of the biggest takeaways was to focus on one major task everyday, proving to be more effective than trying to accomplish 3-4 things everyday. The other half of the books was stale imo, not as many gems just advice on resources to save time.

Excellent Book. Would highly recommend to anyone who's looking to get away from the hustle-and-bustle lifestyle of today's society.

Likes to listen to himself talk. Got sick of author listing his accomplishments. Vanity is not one of my goals.
