I Will Teach You To Be Rich	Workman
Издательство: Workman, 2013	PDF, 266 страниц, 7.98 МБ 0 Оценка:
«At last, for a generation that's materially ambitious yet financially clueless comes I Will Teach You To Be Rich, Ramit Sethi's 6-week personal finance program for 20-to-35-year-olds. A completely practical approach delivered with a nonjudgmental style that makes readers want to do what Sethi says, it is based around the four pillars of personal finance— banking, saving, budgeting, and investing—and the wealth-building ideas of personal entrepreneurship. Sethi covers how to save time by not wasting it managing money; the guns and cars myth of credit cards; how to negotiate like an Indian—the conversation begins with «no»; why «Budgeting Doesn't Have to Suck!»; how to get things rolling—for real—with only $20; what most people don't understand about taxes; how to get a CEO to take you out to lunch; how to avoid the Super Mario Brothers trap by making your savings work harder than you do; the difference between cheap and frugal; the hidden relationship between money and food. Not to mention his first key lesson: Getting started is more important than being the smartest person in the room. Integrated with his website, where readers can use interactive charts, follow up on the latest information, and join the community, it is a hip blueprint to building wealth and financial security. Every month, 175,000 unique visitors come to Ramit Sethi's website, Iwillteachyoutoberich.com, to discover the path to financial freedom. They praise him thoughtfully («Your site summarizes everything I want with my life—to be rich in finances, rich in experience, rich in family blessings,» Dan Esparza) and effusively («Dude, you rock. I love this site!» Richard Wu). The press has caught on, too: «Ramit Sethi is a rising star in the world of personal finance writing . . . one singularly attuned to the sensibilities of his generation. his style is part frat boy and part silicon Valley geek, with a little bit of San Francisco hipster thrown in» (San Francisco Chronicle). His writing is smart, his voice is full of attitude, and his ideas are uncommonly sound and refreshingly hype-free.»

Made by Dad: 67 Blueprints for Making Cool Stuff	Workman

«Made by Dad» is chock full of 67 extraordinary, custom-designed how-to projects for DIY parents everywhere. The projects range from full-length, artfully illustrated creations to smaller, MacGyver-like challenges that can be whipped out at the coffee shop, plus «DIY Dad» tips sprinkled throughout and illustration templates to boost your project's artistic appeal. All chapters, categorized by theme — Dangerous Decor, Gross Gadgets, Covert Creations, Crafty Disasters, Home Hacks, and more — include step-by-step project illustrations, complete with visual «status checks» (to help you keep up), and clever, playful games to incorporate the finished project. Dads will love to create stealthy contraptions like the Bunk Bed Communicator, and the whole family will be impressed with the endless entertainment that can be gleaned from the «Steampunk»-Inspired Balancing Robot. While the projects have a decidedly made-scientist-in-his-laboratory feel, the book's charm and richness of material will appeal to mummies, too-especially when she flips to the whole chapter of projects dedicated to showing Mum-appreciation — like the I Love You THIS MUCH Pop-up Card (with Go-Go-Gadget-style arms that extend to give Mum a virtual hug!).»

Star Wars: Fandex Deluxe Edition (Fandex Family Field Guides)	Workman
Издательство: Workman, 2013	PDF, 75 страниц, 2.25 МБ 0 Оценка:
«Sure, everyone knows that Darth Vader is Luke Skywalker's father, but how many people really know the secret of Darth Vader's paternal lineage? Everyone's heard of Jedi Knights such as Obi Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu, but what about Plo Koon, Ti Shaak, and that snake-haired blue lady — what was her name? We know what a Wookie is and looks like, but what kind of creature is Yoda? Who built the Death Star? What's the difference between a Storm Trooper and a Clone Trooper? Who is Queen Amidala, and why does she look just like her handmaiden Padme? Why are there only two Sith lords at any given time? Did Boba Fett die in that desert pit or not? How many languages can C3PO speak? Who is emperor Palpatine, and what's his relationship to Darth Sidious? And what, for heaven's sake, is the Force anyway?»The world of Star Wars» is full of questions like these, and though any die-hard fan can answer them — and just about every twelve-year old boy with access to a TV set or a an X-Box — most people are a little foggy on all the details beyond the basics. For moms and dads who would like to make heads or tails of the 'Star Wars universe, for kids who can't get enough of it, for 20-something year olds who don't remember a time 'before' Star Wars, for the avid, rabid collectors of everything 'Star Wars,' and for anyone who still feels a nostalgic tingle whenever they see the opening line, 'A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...»Star Wars: Fandex Deluxe» will be a fun, handy, and indispensable guide to the universe created by George Lucas.»

Steal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You About Being Creative	Workman
Издательство: Workman, 2013	PDF, 140 страниц, 4.20 МБ 8 Оценка:
When asked to talk to students at Broome Community College in upstate New York in the spring of 2011, Austin Kleon wrote a simple list often things he wished he'd heard when he was their age: 'Steal like an artist; Don't wait until you know who you are to start making things; Write the book you want to read; Use your hands; Side projects are important; Do good work and put it where people can see it; Geography is no longer our master; Be nice (the world is a small town.); Be boring (it's the only way to get work done.); and, Creativity is subtraction.' After giving the speech, he posted the text and slides to his popular blog, where it quickly went viral. Now Kleon has expanded his original manifesto into an illustrated guide to the creative life for writers, artists, entrepreneurs, designers, photographers, musicians, and anyone attempting to make things — art, a career, a life — in the digital age. Brief, direct, and visually interactive, the book includes illustrative anecdotes and mini-exercise sections calling out practical actions readers can take to unleash their own creative spirits.

You want to leave a mark, not a blemish. Be a hero, not a spectator. You want to be interesting. But sometimes it takes a nudge, a wake-up call, an intervention! and a little help. This is where Jessica Hagy comes in.

Ms. Hagy started on Forbes.com, where she s a weekly blogger, by creating a How to Be Interesting post that went viral, attracting 1.4 million viewers so far, with tens of thousands of them liking, linking, and tweeting the article. Now she s deeply explored the ideas that resonated with so many readers to create this small and quirky book with a large and universal message. It s a book about exploring: Talk to strangers.

About being open: Never take in the welcome mat. About breaking routine: Take daily vacations... if only for a few minutes. About taking ownership: Whatever you re doing, enjoy it, embrace it, master it as well as you can. And about growing a pair: If you re not courageous, you re going to be hanging around the water cooler, talking about the guy that actually is.

The Book of Questions	Workman
Автор: Stock Gregory Издательство: Workman, 2013	PDF, 312 страниц, 9.36 МБ 5 Оценка:
A New York Times bestseller with over 2.5 million copies in print, THE BOOK OF QUESTIONS poses over 300 questions that invite people to explore the most fascinating of subjects: themselves. These questions are as intriguing as our very lives because they are about our lives-our fundamental values and beliefs, our dreams and nightmares about sex, money, love, power. Some of the questions thrust you into a value-testing hypothetical situation (Would you accept 20 years of extraordinary happiness and fulfillment if it meant you would die at the end of the period?), some ask you to delve into your past (When is the last time you stole anything?) and help you find out if you've changed (Would you now return it if you could?), and others reveal your basic nature by examining your behavior (When you are given a compliment do you usually acknowledge it or suggest that you really do not deserve it?). Whether used as an avenue for personal growth, a tool for deepening relationships, or simply as an entertainment, The Book of Questions may be the only publication that challenges-and even changes-the way readers view the world, without offering a single opinion of its own.
