Tired of banks controlling your money, endless debt cycles, and no real plan for passing wealth to your kids? What if you could become your own banker and create a family legacy instead?

In this episode, Authorized IBC Practitioner Jesse Durham shares how he escaped the “financial matrix” in 2015 after a simple invitation changed everything. Using R. Nelson Nash’s "Becoming Your Own Banker," he paid off student loans, credit cards, and cars; then turned Infinite Banking into a full lifestyle for his family of six, complete with intentional money talks and “family bank” deals starting at age 6.

When government agencies shape national nutrition guidelines, subsidies, politics, and industry influence can affect what ends up on your plate — not just science.

With a newly updated food pyramid released to the public, many people are asking an important question: Who decides what "healthy eating" looks like? For decades, Americans were told to fear fat, avoid eggs and butter, and embrace highly processed "fat-free" foods — only to later discover that many of those recommendations contributed to rising obesity, chronic illness, and metabolic problems.

In this episode of The Way the World Works, we explore how government nutrition guidelines influence school lunches, food manufacturing, and consumer behavior. We examine how agricultural subsidies — especially corn subsidies — helped fuel the rise of high-fructose corn syrup, how industry incentives shaped dietary recommendations, and why blindly "trusting the experts" can sometimes backfire.

When policy, profit, and public health collide, the consequences affect everyone.

• Why the government creates food pyramids and dietary guidelines

• How agricultural subsidies influence what foods are produced

• The role of corn subsidies in the rise of high-fructose corn syrup

• Why "fat-free" marketing changed American eating habits

• How to evaluate expert advice without blindly accepting it

It's actually very easy, though not in the way most historians would suggest. And we should listen to presidential critics.
