The 4-Hour Workweek – Audiobook Review

The 4-Hour Workweek by Tim Ferriss is, in its most basic form, the story and path of how Tim Ferriss transformed his life of working more than a full-time job and earning just $40,000 a year to working four hours a week for more than that in a month while he lives the life of his dreams.

There are close to fifteen hundred words waiting for you inside or below - depending how you're standing. ;)
