We Searched For The Best Personal Finance Teacher On The Planet – And Found Him In Japan.
One of our missions at Mindvalley is to find the best teachers from every corner of the planet – and spread their teachings worldwide.
Up till recently, the majority of our teachers were American. But now, we’ve started widening our net and studying other countries too.
Our search for the world’s best personal finance teacher led us to Ken Honda. Ken lives in Japan, an extraordinarily wealthy country with one of the highest number of millionaires on the planet.
Ken’s uniquely Japanese perspective on cash is refreshing: but it’s also universally applicable no matter where you are in the world. And through this brand new Quest, you now have the opportunity to master it more quickly and affordably than ever before.
About Ken Honda
Ken Honda is Japan’s most recognizable and influential money teacher. Fondly known as the ‘Zen Millionaire’ in his home country – and known to some as the Marie Kondo of personal finance – Ken has

penned 58 books, including Happy Money: the New York Times bestseller. Happy Money has been translated into 15 languages, and sold over 8 million copies and counting.
Ken spent most of his early life committed to understanding humanity’s relationship with money – and how to leverage it to create a life of prosperity, peace, and happiness. By 29, he had built multiple successful businesses and achieved financial freedom.
Next, he began studying over 12,000 self-made millionaires in Japan, while being mentored by the late Wahei Takeda (the ‘Warren Buffett of Japan’).
Ken’s life experiences helped him understand the connecting thread between almost all of the world’s richest, happiest, and most fulfilled people:
Building sustainable wealth was less about Money IQ (business and investment strategies) and more about Money EQ (our emotional intelligence surrounding money).
Ken shares this revelation – and how anyone can raise their Money EQ – through high-end coaching and events around the world. And now, through the Money EQ Quest, he hopes to spread the truth about money to empower even more people with the lifelong gift of Happy Money.
A major highlight of the Money EQ Quest is Ken’s selection of Brain Retraining exercises. These powerful exercises target the ‘money wounds’ embedded in your brain: which are similar to limiting beliefs that your mind holds onto in order to keep you safe.
Ken will guide you through a unique Brain Retraining exercise on most days of the Quest. Each one is designed to help you either widen your capacity to receive money, use your money to its fullest potential, or channel your money towards the people and goals you believe in.
Ken’s students swear by these Brain Retraining exercises. Each one is easy to follow, and in many cases you’ll feel the mind shifts happening instantly. Here’s a sample of the exercises you’ll experience in the Quest:
- The Future Reimagining exercise: a favorite of world-class athletes and artists, this exercise charts a crystal-clear path in your mind towards the financial future you desire.
- The Limitless Possibilities exercise: rewires your mind to perceive your financial goals as inevitable (which dramatically accelerates your journey towards making these goals happen).
- The Visual Shift exercise: sets you free from crippling fears, beliefs, and trauma that manifested from your negative experiences with money in the past.
- The Parental Pain Release exercise: focuses on your childhood experiences with your parents, and liberates you from the wealth-sapping thought patterns you inherited from them.
- The Self-Expansion exercise: boosts your confidence and personal power by reconnecting you with the limitless support you can draw from around you to achieve your financial goals.
- The Expanding Your Container exercise: expand your capacity to receive, and watch your income multiply as your brain’s false money barriers melt away forever.
- The Wealthy Behavior exercise: train your brain to make the same daily choices wealthy people do – and watch as you evolve into one of them.
- The Inevitability exercise: hack your brain’s sense of time, and start achieving your money goals in record time.

Muy buen curso con un enfoque diferente. Ayuda a descifrar las emociones subconcientes que todos tenemos en relación al dinero y a sobreponernos a ellas a través de ejercicios prácticos. Muy contenta con la calidad de los videos y el precio al que se ofrece.
