He is also an active education reformer and has architected experimental social media campaigns such as LitLiberation to out-fundraise traditional media figures like Stephen Colbert 3-to-1 at zero cost, building schools overseas and financing more than 25,000 US students in the process. He is on the advisory board of DonorsChoose.org, an educational non-profit and winner at Fast Company’s 2008 Social Capitalist Awards.
Tim received his BA from Princeton University in 2000, where he studied in the Neuroscience and East Asian Studies departments. He developed his nonfiction writing with Pulitzer Prize winner John McPhee and formed his life philosophies under Nobel Prize winner Kenzaburo Oe. He is 32 years old, and The 4-Hour Workweek is his first book.

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.

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”

•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

評分《每周工作4小时》这本书是豆瓣推荐给我的,豆娘总是戳中我这种对成功学书籍很不屑又毫无自我判辨能力和防御能力的渴望一蹴而就的小民众。 我花了很短却很分散的时间把这本书看完了,防御能力逐渐下降,并最终呈负态的原因有几个(决定以后被诱拐去看成功励志类书籍后,必须作...
評分在书本的第229页讲到这样一个笑话: 在医生的建议下,一个美国商人去墨西哥的某个海边村庄度假,在海边散步的时候,他看到一只小渔船停在码头,一个渔夫正在清点船舱里的金枪鱼,美国人大赞金枪鱼的质量。 “您花了多长时间才捕到这些鱼?”美国人问。 “只要一会...
A quarter of boasting random achievements, a quarter of repetitive blog post compilation, and a quarter of shameless promotion of his other books. I'm left with one takeaway which is it's about time for me to hire a personal assistant.
