It was really surprising when I asked quite a few people what they would do if they had all the money and time they wanted that they really had no clue. They never thought beyond the money/time part. What Timothy Ferriss does is make you ask the right questions and take the necessary steps before it’s too late. Lifestyle design should be a required subject.
