Yeah, T4HWW is like 50% filler, and a good 20% wild, semi-unsubstantiated claims. I can see why people hate on Tim Ferriss. At first glance, he seems like a total charlatan.
And then there are the 30% really interesting points. The guy is intelligent, make no mistake. He would'nt be where he is (and have stayed there) if that wasn't the case.
For me, it's more about his way of thinking that i find fascinating. The experiments, the obsessive trial and error. He makes a point of thinking very differently. And he has fun doing it.
Try and read the first few chapters of The 4-Hour Chef (get a free sample on Ibooks, it contains the first chapters). I find a lot here that is very usable on a day to day basis, when it comes to learning a skill.
If nothing else, he's very entertaining.
- Yeah it has some gems and he's definitely smarter and more successful than I am. Can't hate on that @ all.sublocked
