Ernie J. Zelinski has been a ditch digger, a wheel barrow pilot, an equipment operator, a laborer, a flag man, an electrical engineer, a college instructor, a professional speaker, and an international best-selling author. Ernie spends a lot of his vacation time in Vancouver, BC; New York, NY; London, England; and Honolulu, Hawaii. You may see him on his daily morning runs near Stanley Park in Vancouver, in Central Park in New York, in Battersea Park in London, or in Ala Moana Park in Honolulu.
One of Ernie’s biggest Swagger moves was to ditch his engineering career so that he could attain personal freedom and financial independence by being self-employed and only work four to five hours a day. Although he is generally lazy, he still has a Type A personality. He always brings his A-game and Swagger to his important projects so that he can pulverize the
competition.
Ernie doesn’t like sitting in the cheap seats on airplanes, the symphony, live theater, or at Rolling Stones concerts. His favorite wines are Mollydooker The Boxer Shiraz and Mollydooker Blue Eyed Boy Shiraz. If enough people buy his books, he intends to regularly drink the much more expensive 1982 Chateau Latour. He may also hire a butler. Ernie J. Zelinski has lived and continues to live by the adage, “Be a Learner first, a Master second, and a Student always."
Ernie is the author of the three true international bestsellers. His signature book "The Joy of Not Working" has now sold over 315,000 copies and has been published in 17 foreign languages. His flagship book "How to Retire Happy, Wild, and Free" has sold over 460,000 copies and has been published in 11 languages. Ernie's third international bestseller "The Lazy Person's Guide to Success" has sold over 110,000 copies and has been published in 11 foreign languages. These three life-changing books have helped hundreds of thousands of individuals around the world live more satisfying and happier lives.
