My answer to What do people think of Tim Ferriss? on Quora
I didn’t make it to the end of the 4-Hour Work Week because I was uncomfortable with the morality of it (the Tae Kwon Do stuff, for example). If everyone behaved like that, society wouldn’t function.
I’m sure if I had stuck with it I would have picked up some valuable tips, but at the time it just made me feel uncomfortable.
