I’ve shared several details before about how I discovered IBC and started advising other people. But if you’ve ever wanted to know more, then you’ll love this episode.

That’s because I’m sharing my recent appearance on the Infinite Banking Initiative podcast from the Nelson Nash Institute. And it is all about how I found IBC, and the impact it has on me and my clients.

This is the most-detailed account I’ve shared about my journey from entrepreneur to IBC, and the bumps and detours I took along the way.

Some people look at the funds that go into a Whole Life Insurance policy built for Infinite Banking and think the money goes in and then you don’t have control…at least not for a long time.

But is that the truth?

In this episode I’m tackling two more IBC myths head-on so you can have a clear view of what Infinite Banking is really like. I’ll explain why–despite what critics say–IBC offers you unmatched control of your money, and benefits you can access from the very first day.

Listen now!

Show highlights include:

• Easiest loan process ever? How borrowing from your Whole Life policy compares to conventional bank loans. (1:52)
• Why borrowing against your 401K may not be the best idea, especially if you’re under 60 or plan to change jobs soon. (2:18)
• What “margin call” actually is, and why you need to know before you think about borrowing against securities. (3:40)
• How HELOC beats a credit card, but can’t keep up with IBC. (4:31)
• Does it really take a decade to see any benefits with IBC? What the timeline actually looks like. (5:40)
• Surprising truth about how quickly you can borrow against your cash value. (6:10)

Would you rather earn:

• $100,000 a day for 30 days or…
• Earn a penny that doubles every day for 30 days?

Trick question.

At the end of the 30 days, you would have earned $3 million at $100k per day. Not too shabby. But what about a penny that doubles every day for 30 days?

A cool $10.7 million!

So how is this possible?

Well, it’s all possible with Albert Einstein's “8th Wonder of the World” — uninterrupted compounding interest. Not only does Albert subscribe to this, but so does Tony Robbins, Warren Buffet, and Charlie Munger.

And in today’s episode, I reveal how to start snowballing your retirement fund with the power of uninterrupted compounding interest, so that you don’t have to retire with all of your hope in the volatile stock market.

Listen now!

Show Highlights Include:

• Why you might not receive all of your savings if your bank collapses because of the insidious wording in a March 13 press release by the FDIC (2:09)
• How the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010 legally forces you to bail out the banks instead of the government (2:24)
• Albert Einstein's “8th Wonder of the World” secret for amassing a Scrooge McDuck pile of wealth (without earning more or spending any time building your empire) (6:15)
• A simple experiment to 3x your nest egg in 30 days by filling up your wallet with a penny a day (7:59)
• How to snowball $100,000 into an enormous retirement fund with the power of a boring life insurance policy (10:00)

And today I’m busting two more.

In this episode, I’ll tackle the mistaken idea that IBC is just too complicated, and the faulty claim that IBC is a scam. You’ll see the reality that IBC is a “too good to be true” thing that’s actually true, and it’s built on a stable foundation the wealthy have been relied upon for generations.

Listen now!

Show highlights include:

• Why I normally recommend borrowing against your policy instead of taking a distribution. (2:06)
• What you need to know before taking a distribution so you don’t get an expensive visit from Uncle Sam. (2:58)
• Surprising reason lifelong bachelors shouldn’t ignore their death benefit, even though it seems unimportant. (4:16)
• “Anti-Scam” reason Infinite Banking is completely above board. (7:30)
• Informative reason, proven repeatedly, you should read Nelson Nash before moving forward with IBC. (8:06)
• Nelson Nash’ “naysayer secret” to overcome peer pressure and do what you know is right. (9:08)
