The Art of Kakeibo

Kakeibo (家計簿) is a Japanese budgeting method that emphasizes mindfulness and intentionality in spending. More than just tracking numbers, it's about understanding your relationship with money through reflection and conscious decision-making.

"Every yen has a purpose"
— The core philosophy of Kakeibo

Created by Japan's first female journalist, Hani Motoko, Kakeibo asks four essential questions: How much money do you have? How much would you like to save? How much are you spending? How can you improve?
