Imagine a world where your family's financial future is not dictated by banks but built by you. What if you could create a self-sustaining system provides security and offers opportunities for generations to come? For us, this is not just a concept—it's our reality through family banking. Let us take you on a journey into how we built our Marshall Family Bank using the Infinite Banking Concept and how you can start building one too. https://www.youtube.com/live/uj_1A7Prpr8 Welcome to the Money Advantage! Here, we equip you with practical financial strategies to take control of your wealth, avoid common pitfalls, and create a legacy that lasts. Today's focus? Family banking—an approach rooted in Infinite Banking that allows families to take control of their financial futures, break free from traditional banks, and pass wealth along for generations. Today, we're discussing the Marshall family Bank —a system we've developed using Infinite Banking through specially designed whole life insurance policies. The Power of Family BankingHow We Started Our Family BankPolicy DetailsLessons Learned Along the WayStarting Early Pays OffReaching Break-EvenThe Generational VisionChallenges and SolutionsOvercoming Analysis ParalysisPatience is KeyBehavior Over DesignHow to Start Your Own Family Bank1. Clarify Your Goals2. Work with a Knowledgeable Advisor3. Get started and Stay Committed4. Educate Your FamilyThe Case for Family BankingBook A Strategy Call The Power of Family Banking In this article and podcast, we'll reveal how we established our family bank, the lessons we've learned, and actionable steps to start your own journey. This approach has allowed us to: Store, access, and grow our capital sustainably. Fund both personal and generational goals. Create a lasting legacy of financial security. Family banking is more than a strategy—it's a lifestyle. At its core, it's about reclaiming control of the banking function in your life by creating a financial system that works for you, not against you. Infinite Banking, the foundation of family banking, leverages the cash value of whole life insurance policies to build a pool of capital you can access and use throughout your life. Unlike traditional banks, this approach allows you to: Earn uninterrupted compound growth on your money. Borrow from your policy while it continues to grow. Create financial stability for future generations with a guaranteed death benefit. Nelson Nash, the founder of this concept, famously said, “Compounding is the eighth wonder of the world.” Infinite Banking magnifies this principle by letting you benefit from uninterrupted growth over decades. How We Started Our Family Bank Our journey began in 2012 with a single whole life insurance policy funded by a $10,000 annual premium. At the time, we were searching for a safe and liquid place to store our savings. At the time, we were overweighted in gold and silver, which fell short in terms of accessibility and stability. This led us to Infinite Banking. With this system, we gained: Liquidity: Instant access to cash when we needed it. Growth: Tax-advantaged, consistent growth over time. Legacy: A financial tool that benefits our family even after our lifetime. Policy Details in the YouTube video link near the top of this article, you can watch the live recording of the podcast episode to see the high-level details of our family bank as of Dec 2024 and see a deep dive into the annual statement of one of our policies. Lessons Learned Along the Way Starting Early Pays Off If there's one thing we wish we could change, it's starting sooner. The earlier you begin, the longer your policies have to grow and compound. As we've learned, compounding is a slow process initially but accelerates dramatically over time. For instance, in one of our policies, the annual cash value growth now exceeds the premium we pay—one of the “break-even” poi...

This week on Getting Rich Together, I had the pleasure of sitting down with the incredible Nancy Tsuei. Nancy is a force in the retail world, having built businesses and been at the forefront of brands like Bed Bath & Beyond, Millerknoll, Gap, and West Elm. But what many people don't know is her financial prowess and the inspiring ways she's evolved throughout her lifetime to create change, especially in the space of women and wealth. In this episode, we dive into how Nancy's parents shaped her relationship with money, the missteps and lessons she learned early in her career, and how she built multiple streams of income that work together to build on each other.

In today's episode of Executive Decisions, host Sarah Delahanty sits down with Todd Davis who shares his rich career history from building airplanes to his executive career in the orthopedic industry. Todd reflects on his journey from managing older union workers while still in his 20's to his transition into executive leadership roles. He emphasizes the importance of work ethic, persistence, and building relationships, sharing valuable insights from his experiences. Todd also discusses his post-executive life, engaging in mentorship, fundraising efforts for his community, and continuous personal development through reading diverse materials. Through his story, listeners gain valuable lessons in leadership, adaptability, and the importance of work-life integration. About our guest, Todd Davis: Todd is a seasoned leader with over three decades of experience in the orthopedic industry, particularly in driving the success of major knee franchises for some of the world's largest companies. From Sales and Marketing to Product Development, Strategy, and M&A, Todd has demonstrated his visionary leadership skills by accelerating growth opportunities and fostering world-class teams and cultures. After retiring from his role as President and General Manager of the Global Knee Business at Zimmer Biomet in July 2019, Todd has redirected his focus towards the startup landscape within the Medtech sector. He currently serves as an Independent Board Director for PeekMed Health, a Board Observer for Enhanced Medical Nutrition, and a Board Director for JointVue, while also providing consulting expertise for companies like Smith+Nephew, Canary Medical, Maxx Ortho, Kinamed, Kneevoice, and various other OEMs. Summary and highlights from the show: Todd Davis had a formative experience working full-time at Rockwell International while still going to school. He was promoted into a managerial role in his mid to late 20's, leading teams of older aircraft mechanics. Davis learned to lead by example and develop a strong work ethic during this time, working 70 hours a week while pursuing his education at night. His transition to orthopedics involved leading a team of older individuals in the customer service group at Zimmer Biomet, where he applied his leadership skills and learned to be persistent in pursuing his goals. Todd emphasizes the importance of not chasing money but rather finding something you enjoy and working hard at it, as advised by his father. He shares his experience of persistence in pursuing opportunities, such as transitioning into marketing at Zimmer Biomet despite initial rejection from the vice president of marketing. Building relationships is crucial in the orthopedic industry, and Todd highlights the impact of handwritten thank-you notes in making lasting connections. Todd reflects on the importance of work-life balance, which he prioritized by scheduling family events and delegating responsibilities as he advanced in his career. Transitioning to board roles and mentoring startups has been rewarding for Todd, allowing him to leverage his experience and make a meaningful impact. He discusses his involvement in community initiatives, such as leading a capital campaign for a school expansion, and his interest in personal development through reading. Todd finds inspiration and leadership insights from various sources, including spiritual books, business literature, and perspectives from different industries like the restaurant business.

In this episode, I'm back in the hot seat again while my producer Knut grills me on what I'm calling my ‘errors of omission'. It's part of my plan this year to cover various points in my career. Previously I've discussed details on Wallstrip and Stocktwits. Both of those episodes answered a lot of the questions I've been asked over the years. But one of the questions I'm asked most often as an investor and entrepreneur is, “Howard, what's your biggest mistake, your biggest miss?” I've been in this game for a while now – so it's a splendid idea to finally share them in a format where everyone can learn from my mistakes. I lay out my biggest errors, or what I would call errors of omission versus errors of commission, in the spirit of Bessemer Ventures “anti-portfolio” – that is some of the biggest ones they missed, like AirBnb, Coinbase, and eBay to name a few. I cover three of my biggest whiffs. It's part of the joy of investing, the irreverence, having the cojones to create a whole anti-portfolio and share it. You may have even heard of one or two of mine.

Welcome to Investories Deep Dive Season 1: Creative Financing We're breaking down the strategies to empower your Real Estate investing journey. Season 1 is all about creative financing. The who, the what, and importantly the how. Creative financing isn't just seller financing, and we're going to dive into it all, from subto, to hard money. This week Investories is speaking to Natalie Cloutier, one half of the new build couple (instagram.com/newbuildcouple) about how they started on their real estate journey, and how they're crushing it, not just investing but designing and building rental units. About Natalie: Natalie (along with Rob) are two young professionals who started our journey with no money, but with a strong desire to build our dream business. Natalie and Rob met in college while studying architectural technology and started dating soon after. Little did they know that our mutual passion for building would lead them on a path towards financial success. Their story began when we purchased a condo at just 19 years old, with the help of a government program aimed at first-time homebuyers. They quickly realized that it was not the ideal home for them, given the high condo fees and unfavourable interest rate. Determined to find a better solution, they discovered Auto Construction loans and used this trade secret to build their first home. Their journey may not have been conventional, but they learned a ton early on. Real estate investing can be a lucrative and rewarding venture if done right. It can provide a steady stream of passive income, long-term wealth, and a sense of pride in creating something tangible. However, it also requires significant knowledge, strategy, planning, hard work, and dedication.

As famously said by Sir Richard Branson: “Do not be embarrassed by your failures, learn from them and start again.” If you're starting a business, you may be wondering how many businesses fail either in the short-term or the long run. Unfortunately, business failure is common: About 20% of small businesses fail in their first year, and a staggering 96% of businesses will fail over a 10-year period of time. As for the remaining 4%, it does not necessarily mean they succeed – it means that they've survived. In this episode, we've invited a serial entrepreneur and active philanthropist. His name is non-other than Jeremy Delk. Jeremy is an entrepreneur with a passion for disrupting industries.
