On this episode of The Necessary Entrepreneur, host Mark Perkins sits down with wealth strategist, author, and co-founder of One Wealth Map, Kenneth Himmler, for a powerful conversation on what it really means to build wealth, and why most entrepreneurs never make the leap from high income to true financial freedom.

Ken breaks down the mindset shifts that separate wealthy people from everyone else, why most financial advice fails entrepreneurs, and how business owners can turn income into long-term wealth without sacrificing their family, health, or quality of life. He shares lessons from working with high-net-worth individuals for more than four decades, the dangers of chasing "lazy sound bite" financial advice like the 4% rule, and why balance is one of the most overlooked pillars of living rich.

The conversation dives deep into wealth psychology, entrepreneurship, retirement planning, investment strategies, market volatility, passive income, and the importance of designing a life with freedom and intentionality. Ken also opens up about his own early struggles, including living out of his Jeep in Canada as a teenager, and how reading Think and Grow Rich completely transformed his mindset and future.

If you are an entrepreneur, business owner, investor, or someone trying to create lasting financial security, this episode delivers practical wisdom on building wealth that actually supports the life you want to live.
