DRich Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 51 Posts: 4944 | I have had a few people recommend the book The Four Hour Work Week. Has anyone here read it? I read that it was a New York Times bestseller for many years but I had never heard of it. It sounds like a "self help" book that normally wouldn't interest me but friends said there were actually some good stories in it. I am a very lazy person and if this book could truly inspire me i may consider it. amazon link At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

It's... okay. The author is a bit full of himself, but there's some interesting ideas in there. It is said that your life flashes before your eyes just before you die.... it's called Life |
