The 4-Hour Workweek

I appreciate the premise: How do you do the least amount of work possible? For any developer that's a goal. That's not the goal because then you can take off though - it's so you can get more done. Most of the projects suggested in the book contribute nothing to society, and are usually self serving.

I don't necessarily agree with many of the ideas Ferriss puts out, but I'm happy I took the time to read this book. I've heard a lot about it from personal finance bloggers, and its principles of mini-retirements, minimalism, and conscious living and working really appeal to me.

Took some great work-life lessons from this book. I don't see a 4 hour work week in my future, but some great concepts are introduced.
