Earning Money Without a Job is loaded with practical, money-making ideas that don't require fancy degrees of huge start-up costs, (or any start-up cost, in many cases)-from selling and mail order to catering and high-tech repair services.
I read the earlier edition years ago. It's a positive, upbeat book about creating multiple "profit centers" (or income streams, if you prefer to think of it that way) and planning for those "spaghetti days" when nothing is coming in. I wasn't as prepared then as now to put those principles in place, so I'm happy to have the revised edition. What I like best is that he provides a broad enough spectrum of ideas in his books so that none of them are industry-specific. (By contrast, a lot of consulting books focus on only management consulting and many freelance books focus on journalism or advertising when you might be in IT, interior design, or tutoring.) The Guru of Guerilla Marketing knows his stuff. So far, I never met a Levinson book I didn't like.
Ignore the other comments. This book could change your life!

Mel Ziegler started "The Banana Republic" after reading this book. I started my company soon thereafter.If you have what it takes to question the prevailing paradigm and are determined to be happy at work, you'll find this book a refreshing, important alternative. If they don't get it in Estonia, shame on them, but I know it was the best $10 I ever spent.
