Most people do what they're told when it comes to money—get a job, stash cash in a 401(k), and hope there's enough to retire someday. But what do they get? Debt. Stress. Zero control over their time and money.

Meanwhile, banks are making a fortune off their hard work. Savings get eaten up by taxes, inflation, and market crashes. Retirement accounts come with rules, restrictions, and penalties. And after years of grinding, most people still feel stuck, just trying to stay afloat.

What if there was a way out?

The Infinite Banking Concept flips the script. It's not just about making money—it's about keeping control. It's a system that lets you take charge of your cash, grow wealth on your terms, and stop relying on banks that profit off you. With Infinite Banking, you decide how and when to use your money, without waiting until retirement or jumping through hoops.

How will Infinite Banking transform your life? In this episode, special guest host and Money School partner Stephen Nagy talks to trainer and entrepreneur Brian Fouts. Brian talks about his journey, how he found Infinite Banking, and how it changed the trajectory of his life.

Brian Fouts got his start in life following the traditional path… went to school, got a corporate job, saved money into a 401k, and got into debt because that's what everyone else around him was doing. Yet after almost 15 years in the rat race, he lost more than $500,000 to corrupt financial planners and institutions. He was fed up with the rat race and the broken traditional path that did not provide financial security for his family. After leaving his corporate job and successfully investing in numerous assets including real estate, private lending, and online businesses, as well as growing a financial education business to the Inc.5000 list, Brian discovered the Infinite Banking Concept almost 10 years ago. After using this strategy in his own life, Brian made it his mission to help others gain back control of their money and financial life with this strategy. After impacting over 60,000 clients and individuals through his various companies and ventures, Brian continues to help others discover how real wealth and freedom can be attained through the Infinite Banking Concept.
