'Happy money' is cash received and given with joy, satisfaction and love.
A 10-year old boy spending coins given to him by his grandparents at the candy store. A 55-year-old paying off the last of her credit card debt. A mom and dad pinching pennies to surprise their teen with a car. Those are examples of what Ken Honda, author of “Happy Money: The Japanese Art of Making Peace With Your Money,” classifies as happy money.
Making money mistakes from what we saw as children Most of us have long-held feelings, wounds and impressions of money that we inherited from our families. Maybe they didn’t have enough or were money worriers, constantly in fear of going broke, and those feelings rubbed off on us. Perhaps we learned that spending money on ourselves was foolish. Or our parents or grandparents were spendthrifts who came close to losing, or even lost, everything.
6 ways to make your money happy Here’s advice from Honda and a few financial experts for making peace with your money: Third, focus on money EQ as well as money IQ. Many people have money IQ, knowledge about saving, investing and debt that they’ve picked up from financial gurus. But, Honda says, it’s not until they also learn Money EQ — the emotional aspects of dealing with their money — that they’re truly financially successful.
Fifth, evaluate and adjust your money type as needed. Honda says there are many money types, including: the chronic saver; the chronic spender; the compulsive moneymaker; the person who is indifferent to money; the hippie, who thinks money is bad and, finally, the money worrier. Once you figure out your money type and how it affects your finances, you can begin to change your pattern, says Honda.
