Who are the NR (New Rich)?

“Options—the ability to choose—is real power.   Be open to learn about how to see and create those options with the least effort and cost.  It just so happens, paradoxically, that you can make more money—a lot more money–by doing half of what you are doing now”  Timothy Ferris

So, Who Are the NR?

  • The employee who rearranges his schedule and negotiates a remote work agreement to achieve 90% of the results in one-tenth of the time, which frees him to practice cross-country skiing and take road trips with his family two weeks per month.
  • The business owner who eliminates the least profitable customers and projects, outsources all operations entirely, and travels the world collecting rare documents, all while working remotely on a website to showcase her own illustrations work.
  • The student who elects to risk it all—which is nothing—to establish an online video rental service that delivers $5,000 per month in income from a small niche of Blu-ray aficionados, a two-hour per-week side project that allow him to work full-time as an animal rights lobbyist.

The options are limitless, but each path begins with the same first step:  replacing assumptions.  To join the movement, you will need to learn a new lexicon and recalibrate direction using a compass for an unusual world.  From inverting responsibility to jettisoning the entire concept of “success,” WE NEED TO CHANGE THE RULES!
