The book that changed my life

4 Hour Work Week by Tim Ferris
I dont usually read a lot. But when I read I will get hooked and finish it by the time i knew it. Provided its a good book. This book especially the first 20 % parts of the really get me thinking about my entire life. What Ive been wanting and postponing it all these while. The "mini retirement" was a brilliant idea. Here is what Ive highlighted in this book to share with you and worth mentioning.

Interrupting interruption and the art of refusal
$20 per hour is how much you are paid or value of your time. This would be the case, for eg. if you are paid $40k per year and get two weeks of vacation per year ($40k divide by [40hours per week x 50 = 2000] $20/hour). Estimate your hourly income by cutting the last three seroes off your annual income and halving the remaining number (eg. $50k/year = $25/hour)
