Bestselling Author of Happy Money
What if becoming richer didn't have to come at the expense of becoming happier?
Ken Honda became financially independent at 29. But instead of simply chasing more, he became fascinated by why some people have money and still feel anxious, while others experience it with gratitude, trust and ease.
He went on to study more than 12,000 self-made millionaires, looking beyond how they created wealth to understand how they actually experienced it.
For 15 years, his thinking was shaped by Wahei Takeda, the legendary Japanese investor known as the “Warren Buffett of Japan.” Takeda helped Ken see that understanding money requires more than knowing what to do with it. It also requires understanding how you feel about it.
Ken first shared these ideas in a simple 26-page essay. What started small eventually became a global conversation, and today Ken's books have sold more than 9 million copies worldwide.
Different stories. Different perspectives. One shared purpose.
Karms spent years in corporate, one of just five people trusted with the company's most high-profile project — a $2.3 billion revenue strategy — before walking away from it all at 34. Freedom didn't feel like relief. It felt like unhappy money: successful on paper, empty everywhere else. That gap became The Inner Switch, endorsed by Ken Honda as “a powerful guide to inner stability and true freedom.”
Jeffrey grew up believing prison was the safer, more familiar outcome — not freedom. Money beliefs work the same way: the environment you grew up in can convince you what you deserve long before you've earned a cent. Unlearning that belief, and founding Mindset Heist Academy, is what changed everything.
“You've built success in every area of your life. Except the one behind your own front door.” Brian was on the brink of divorce — proof that bringing the money home isn't the same as building a happy one. Owning his part in it, not just the bills, is the reckoning behind his book, Fight For Her Not With Her.
Starting with $2,000, Hendry built a seven-figure portfolio using long-term, value-based investing — not to stack a number, but to retire both his mum and his wife. That's happy money in practice: putting it to work for who matters most.
Zen co-founded Happy Ikigai alongside Ken Honda, helping people connect success with deeper purpose — because money without purpose is just a bigger number, not a happier life. His session, The Ikigai of Money, asks the real question: what are you actually building it for?
