Emotions and Money Stress (w/ Ken Honda)

The news from the economic world is pretty bad right now. Inflation is up and the stock market is down, which means we're all experiencing some degree of financial stress. Here to help us put it all in perspective is Ken Honda. Known as Japan’s Zen millionaire, Ken’s book "Happy Money" has sold over 8 million copies worldwide.

In this, his second visit to Crazy Money, we talk about:

  • What economic fear, uncertainty, and doubt can do to our health and our relationships

  • How we can maintain peace of mind when those around us are losing their minds

  • How to be a good spouse during times of financial trouble

  • The games that shame and guilt play with our minds

  • How inflation can actually help us get clarity around our priorities

  • Lessons from Japan's lost decades of economic stagnation
