True Wealth: 9 Lessons from a Grandfather on Happiness and Abundance

New lessons on success and abundance from the author of the international bestseller Happy Money, founded on Zen principles and delivered in a spirit of compassion, freedom, and joy.

Embark on a transformative adventure with Kei as he unravels his grandfather’s legacy, one letter at a time.

Upon the passing of his grandfather, Kei inherits a series of nine letters covering 80 years of his grandfather’s learned wisdom. Each unveils an important lesson about what’s most important in life--achieving a joyous and successful life beyond material wealth.

Motivated by these letters, 20-year-old Kei begins an introspective international journey--from Tokyo to Hokkaido to Bangkok, Bhutan, and beyond--to learn about his grandfather’s past. Readers follow Kei along this path as he absorbs the essence of each lesson and its fundamental value.

Readers will explore:

- The value of failure to propel us forward
- The power of determination to chart our course
- The opportunity we have, every day, to choose actions that will change our lives
- The intricate balance between money and true abundance
- And much more

With every letter, Kei’s worldview expands, leading him closer to understanding his grandfather’s legacy and the profound meaning of true wealth. The letters invite readers to contemplate the meaning of wealth beyond financial abundance and propel them toward a life rich in happiness, purpose, and authentic connection.
