Timothy Ferriss’s approach to work is radical: work as little as you can for maximum bucks and have fun the rest of the time. Ferriss has developed a strategy that can make you a member of the New Rich while working as little as four hours per week. Sounds crazy, but Ferriss lays it all out. Along the way, Ferriss provides insight into business investment, interest rates, working the System, and time management. If you consider yourself overworked and underpaid, Ferriss shows you a way out of your dilemma.

If you’ve ever considered starting your own small business, you’ll find Kim Lavine’s MOMMY MILLIONAIRE both insightful and daunting. Lavine starts a small business with no small business experience, makes plenty of mistakes, gets lied to by attorneys, ripped-off by assorted scam artists, betrayed by snarky workers, nearly goes bankrupt, but with the help of some knowledgeable business friends Lavine not only survives but sees her business succeed beyond her wildest dreams! In the process of reading Lavine’s story, you’ll learn all about using QuickBooks, applying for a patent, registering a trademark, and gain dozens of tips on the process of generating sales.

I’ve read over a hundred books on small business management and entrepreneurship but MOMMY MILLIONAIRE stands out as one of the most practical and realistic books I’ve ever read in this field. Lavine never sugarcoats her struggles. You feel her frustrations, despair, and triumphs. She admits her mistakes, warns you of the pitfalls, and shows you how to avoid them. Plus MOMMY MILLIONAIRE has a happy ending. What more could you want?
