My wife and I just finished reading the book and guess what…We are all fired up! We are already implementing our strategic mini-retirement plan. We are still working on the financial architecture of our plan but what matters is that we are having a lot of fun during the process. We love the concept of the new rich! Life is brief and beautiful. It’s time to enjoy it at its fullest. Thank you Tim for such and inspiring book. We look forward to see you at any airport during one of our trips overseas!

Tim,

Bought both books and love your sites and messages with one exception. Its your comments regarding nutrition. You should consider a guest blog or interview/random episode with Matt Stone on your blog. … I think you both would really connect and I know that he is a big fan of yours. Matt is the master when it comes to health as related to nutrition and is totally cutting edge and no bullshit. The reason I’m suggesting is that there are often severe and long lasting effects to nutrition regimes and what works for you may be a disaster for someone else, and I think that you would really like Matt and his style and approach in general.

You’re amazing and your 4 hour messages (I’ve been a follower since 2007) are great!

After yet another Xmas eve negotiating the packed malls trying to find that perfect gift, my grandmother laughed and sad, “If you can take one piece of advice that I have learned in my many years on this planet, it is this… Christmas comes on the same day every year.”

Starting in January, it’s ok to buy gifts. Allocate a cupboard or closet in your house, and whenever you see something for someone just get it and put it away. After Thanksgiving, clean the house on Friday, and over the Sat/Sun pull out all the gifts, wrap them, drop them at the post-office, put up your tree, and sit back and enjoy the Holiday parties.

My wife and I have followed her advice for the last five years, and we always have great gifts for people, we’re often done with half our shopping before summertime, and we get great prices.

Please, take my Grandmother’s advice and make the Holidays the LEAST stressful time of the year!!!
