  • E232: Top 5 FAQs About Infinite Banking
    Apr 30 2024

    In this episode, Nate Scott answers the five most frequently asked questions about infinite banking. He talks about the importance of choosing the right insurance company, how policies continue to grow even when borrowed against, the difference between direct recognition and non-direct recognition, the pros and cons of different policy designs, and the whether or not you should run all finances through a policy. Nate emphasizes the need for individualized approaches and recommends starting with a solid foundation before considering more complex strategies.

    Key Takeaways:

    • To practice infinite banking, choose a mutual life insurance company that offers dividend-paying whole life policies.

    • Policies continue to grow even when borrowed against because the insurance company lends money against the policy's cash value, which still earns interest and dividends.

    • Direct recognition and non-direct recognition refer to how insurance companies apply dividends to policies with loans.

    • The design of a policy, including the base premium and paid-up additions, depends on individual circumstances and goals.

    • Running all finances through a policy is not recommended for most people. It is important to start with a solid foundation, understand cash flow, and gradually incorporate policies into financial strategies.

    • Individual circumstances and goals play a significant role in determining the best approach to infinite banking.

  • E231: Should I Use Infinite Banking Policies To Fund All My Investments?
    Apr 23 2024

    In this episode, Nate Scott walks us through the types of investments that make sense to fund using Infinite Banking policies and those that may not be a good fit. He explains why investments that produce cash flow, like real estate, private lending, and business expansion, work well with IBC. On the other hand, long-term passive investments, such as retirement programs and stock market investments, may not be a perfect match for IBC. Nate also mentions the option of using policies to repay any debts and highlights the importance of understanding your financial goals before deciding how involved you want to be with IBC.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Investments that produce cash flow, such as real estate and business expansion, work well with IBC policies.

    • Using IBC policies to fund investments allows you to repay policy loans and reuse the capital.

    • Long-term passive investments, like retirement programs and stock market investments, may not be a perfect fit for IBC.

    • Using policies to pay down debt can provide a guaranteed rate of return.

    Apr 16 2024

    In this episode, Nate breaks down the three main reasons why people who practice Infinite Banking end up with multiple policies. He explains what a MEC limit is, and what benefits you can get from insuring other people, like spouses, children, or even business partners.

    Nate dives into how policies can be strategically used for different purposes, like covering taxes or supporting charitable causes. He ends the episode by emphasizing that the number of policies doesn't matter as much as the total amount of premium being contributed.

    Key Takeaways:

    • 3 main reasons why people own multiple policies while practicing IBC:

    1. Every policy has a MEC limit, which determines the maximum amount of money that can be funded into it.

    2. Owning policies on other people, such as spouses, children, and business partners, can provide additional benefits.

    3. Policies can serve different functions, such as paying taxes or charitable giving.

    • The number of policies doesn't matter as much as the total amount of premium being contributed.
