How to Live Like a Secret Agent: Tim Ferriss and Neil Strauss on the New Book
March 17, 2009
Two of my favorite authors, Timothy Ferriss (author of the bestselling The 4-Hour Workweek) and Neil Strauss (author of the bestselling The Game), feature in one of Tim’s latest blog posts, which also includes lengthy excerpts from Neil’s latest book, Emergency: This Book Will Save Your Life, which details how Neil has moved on from the soul-sucking world of pick-up artists toward the mysterious world of secret agents and shifty billionaires.
A buddy in Bangkok and a veteran dating coach himself, Angel Caido, first introduced me to the idea of Five Flags, five different geographical locations in which to plant your flag, so to speak. The first flag is your second passport. The second is a safe location for your assets in a different country. The third is a legal address in a tax haven. The fourth is an additional country as a business base. And the fifth is actually a potentially high number of ‘playground countries’ in which to spend leisure time. Neil’s book explains this in entertaining detail.
Check out Tim’s blog post for more.
Play on, The Asian Rake.

sounds amazing
looks like a fun read! I skimmed through it at Indigo - I was tempted to buy it, but I know I won’t be able to get any work done until I finished it.
No delusions of grandeur for me.. not until I’m done this semester anyway. lol
I wonder how many people who followed The Game will latch on to Neil’s paranoia and will be inspired and try to become “Jason Bournes” themselves like how AFCs who picked up the book delved into the game.
Perhaps with this book, Neil will be the catalyst in bringing business to survival bootcamp programs.. lol
