Do you want to learn how to use Infinite banking as an AND asset for investing as well as a college education with a live example?In this episode of Think Outside The Stocks, I want to share my personal journey and strategy for implementing real estate syndications, passive investments, and the Infinite Banking strategy. I've gone through a transformation from being a passive investor to actively incorporating these strategies into my financial structure.When I first started my investment journey, I began with rental real estate. However, I faced some challenges and felt that there had to be a more passive investment option out there. That's when I decided to explore syndicated real estate. I stumbled upon the concept of Infinite banking, and I immediately saw the potential it had for creating a structured financial strategy. Initially, I was skeptical about the idea of using life insurance in this way. I evaluated and realized its merits before I implemented it. I believed in it so much that I made it my mission to educate others and help them implement it in a customizable way. Providing education first became a top priority for me, in this episode I continue the listener’s journey to illustrate how I have put Infinite Banking and Syndicated real estate strategies together to use in my family’s financial structure. I also explain how I harness the growth of expenses and use Infinite Banking for college education while investing the same dollar, a true AND asset. Instead of directly paying for my daughter's college tuition, I want to emphasize that my strategy is not investment advice. It's simply an example of how I personally implemented these concepts in my financial structure. I encourage all the listeners to consult with their own advisors to tailor these strategies to their own financial goals and circumstances. Each individual's situation is unique, and it's essential to make decisions that align with your specific needs and aspirations.Think Outside The Stocks brings you industry experts and guests to share their knowledge and expertise.

Infinite Banking is an out-of-the-box strategy, that you may have never heard of or understood completely.The goal of Infinite Banking is to use magic of compounding in your "savings" that are otherwise stagnant in a banking system. Instead you can create your own banking system, as a source of liquidity and financing that is separate from traditional banks and financial institutions.Unless we understand our problems, it's difficult to understand the solution.In Part 1 of this segment, I talk about the different problem areas when it comes to generational wealth. Is it growing or depleting? Is it truly safe and secure in the bank, or does it get easily affected by the banking system’s volatility and fluctuating interest rates? How about the tax leakages? Have you thought of exposure and asset protection? Are the limitations of contributions, access on tax-deferred qualified or educational plans helping you or harming you? Join me to ask yourself some thought provoking questions.In the next episode, I will continue talking about how Infinite banking system can create a tax-smart vehicle, to harness uninterrupted compounding year after year, help you with your goals from investments, educational expense to retirement and finally pass generational wealth. Let's start building a solid foundation that has certainty Vs volatility. Let's start thinking about growing, preserving, protecting and passing generational wealth, while utilizing it during our lifetime, with Infinite BankingThink Outside The Stocks brings you industry experts and guests to share their knowledge and expertise.
