Dig deeply into some area, become a professional.

Then hire other people and try to optimize your business to work without your control. It's very important to be able to manage the company remotely.

A lot of people are trying to get to some huge expertise to achieve "bigger salary" or something. But no one really focuses on earning a small regular no-hassle income.

That's mostly it...Focus on 20% of stuff which gives 80% of results, like the book said.

I’m living 4 hour work week and it’s one of the best books that ever helped me. Just use the advices in the book, pretty simple. I spend most of these days working on side projects, feels great! This also allowed me to earn a lot of money, so definitely not downshifting.

Actually kinda amazed that there aren’t many similar people in the thread...I can email you from a public address, it would prove I have a real reputation and not just Tim’s paid commenter.

>as is publicly condoning breaking the law in reaction

This is bullshit. You definitely didn't live under corrupt south america regimes. Or in Soviet Union. Or in Belarus (author's location AFAICS).

If the law is very bad (e.g. death penalty for homosexuality), then it's not people who are wrong when they're breaking it.
