"The 4-Hour Workweek" by Timothy Ferriss

While a lot of people are quite content following the usual career path in life which consists of many years of hard work rewarded by a modest pension, there is another way to go. Considering that the world’s economy is currently in somewhat of a turmoil, there are very few certainties left in this world and one simply cannot afford to keep living life like a mindless drone, working in the office from 9 to 5, following the rat race philosophy.

Well, Timothy Ferriss has seemingly found the solution to escape this life and join those who are rich, and he shares it in his book titled The 4-Hour Workweek: Escape 9-5, Live Anywhere, and Join the Rich. In his book, Timothy shares how he came to make as much as $40,000 per month while working only four hours per week. 

It share a large number of concepts such as outsourcing work overseas, how blue-chip escape artists travel the world, how one can eliminate 50% of their workload, 50 practical tips to actually help you increase your income, and much more. In a nutshell, this book aims to help you make money through short work bursts while affording some mini-retirements for yourself every month.
