In this episode, Jim Oliver and David Stearns discuss:
- Mistakes that we commonly see with life insurance policies.
- Being the hero of your own IBC story.
- Things people don’t seem to understand about infinite banking.
- Managing and controlling your cash flow.
Key Takeaways:
- Infinite banking is an infinite game – not a finite game. It’s not a competition with someone else, it’s what you choose to do with it.
- You can’t compute rates of return on insurance policies in the same way you would with another avenue.
- Paying interest to your insurance policy is still money you own; you’re in control of the money.
- Every family runs a business from their home – their own home academy.
