In this video we discuss the common question ‘But I Can Get a Higher Rate of Return’ from chapter 15 in Nelson Nash’s book, Becoming Your Own Banker. This comes up from time to time where people suggest they can get a higher rate of return elsewhere.

As Nelson Nash says in his book about The Infinite Banking Concept:

“When first exposed to the rationale of The Infinite Banking Concept a person will almost always think—and often voice the thought, “but I can get a higher rate of return by investing in _______.” Unfortunately that person has not understood the message! We are not addressing the yield of an investment—we are discussing how you finance anything that you buy. It is always better to finance it through your banking system than out of your pocket.”

In this video we will discuss ‘Am I Too Old for Infinite Banking?’ This is a common myth that you are ‘too old’ to get a whole life policy for purposes of Infinite Banking. There are numerous ways to practice Infinite Banking with a whole life insurance contract with a mutual company - whether you are older or by having insurable interest on family members, business partners or even key employees.

At LifeWithLeverage, we help you understand and implement Infinite Banking so you can build and control your own pool of capital.

In this discussion, we'll explore why the premiums you pay for dividend paying whole life insurance are not costs that disappear—they can actually represent one of your most powerful financial tools. This idea comes from the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC), originally developed by R. Nelson Nash.

With Infinite Banking Concept (IBC), when you fund a well-designed, dividend-paying whole life insurance policy, those premium payments shift from being typical "expenses" (similar to premiums for auto or homeowners insurance that provide coverage but no lasting value) to premium payments capitalizing your personal financial foundation. You're essentially building your own private banking system.

Compare this to conventional scenarios:

- With a standard bank loan (say, for a vehicle), the interest you pay goes straight to the lender, enriching them while your money vanishes.

- In contrast, with IBC, your premiums flow into the policy, increasing its cash value—an asset that grows over time through guaranteed elements, dividends, and compounding. This cash value remains fully under your control that you can leverage against to finance investments and other expenses in life. Meanwhile, the death benefit provides ongoing protection and a potential inheritance for your loved ones.

The long-term goal is true financial autonomy. Over years of consistent use, your policy evolves into the central "home base" or “residence” for your money—a secure, efficient place to store your wealth where your capital works for you instead of benefiting banks or other institutions. This creates a cycle of wealth-building that supports independence and leaves a lasting legacy.
