Tim went from $40,000 per year and 80 hours per week to $40,000 per month and only 4 hours per week.
Imgine... a half million a year income, only working half a day per week! Talk about having your cake and eating it too.
In his new best selling book, Tim tells you how to outsource your life to overseas virtual assistants for $5 per hour and do whatever you really want. Aside from a Monday morning check of your emails from your laptop, you're as free as a bird.
I couldn't put his book down. I've been happy making a portable income from my laptop for the past few years. Tim demonstrates that it's possible to make a spectacular portable income while hardly working at all, joining the 'new rich'. Now that's a laptop lifestyle!
Tim encourages his readers to trade a long-haul career for short work bursts and frequent mini-retirements.

I agree with nomad-chick, Tim is the man. Could be the best book I've ever read. I've put some of his principles into practice and take three days off a week. I used to take a day off every few months.

I also found his book to be really useful. Didn't agree with all of his approaches, but it was definitely a new way of looking at how to fit work around your lifestyle.
I have yet to put a lot of his suggestions to use, but I AM currently spending the month in Bali right now for fun. As a freelance copywriter, I have a lot of flexibility that way.
