Welcome back to another episode of Wealth Warehouse!

In this week’s episode, Dave and Paul take a look at the central theme of the poem, “The Road Not Taken”, by Robert Frost – and why it’s the perfect analog for IBC and controlling the banking function in your life.

Additionally, the guys explore what control actually gets you, how you’re able to not only “see” new opportunities, but also take part in them – to build your wealth and your family’s for generations to come – and as Dave will explain: why you need to care about more money (and not just for yourself)

Welcome back to another episode of Wealth Warehouse!

This week, the guys break down a simple but powerful analogy: why Infinite Banking is like cooking with gas instead of using an electric stove.

What’s the difference? Control.

Gas gives you instant heat, faster response, and more precision, just like IBC gives you direct access to your money, faster decision-making, and the freedom to finance on your own terms. No waiting. No permission slips. No middlemen.

If you're tired of being at the mercy of traditional banks and financial institutions, this conversation will show you what it really means to take the controls back.

Welcome back to another episode of Wealth Warehouse!

In this episode Dave and Paul push back on the idea that IBC is a clever financial hack you can deploy and forget. It’s a philosophy, daily practice and most importantly: a way of life.

Expect a practical conversation about mindset, discipline, and the long-range planning required to make IBC work for you. If you’re looking for instant gratification, this one will reset your expectations.

Becoming Your Own Banker by Nelson Nash: 

https://infinitebanking.org/product/becoming-your-own-banker/ref/46/

In this episode, Dave and Paul unpack a core belief that separates seasoned IBC practitioners from the casual policyholder: the commitment to paying premiums forever. Not because they have to, but because they want to.

They break down why their policies are designed to get better with age, how they’re expecting to earn more in the future than they do today, and why stopping premium payments could actually limit their wealth-building potential.

They also get into the IBC mindset of relentlessly capitalizing treating premium payments not as a bill, but as a deposit into their family banking system. As Nelson Nash often said, “You’re always going to finance everything you buy, you either pay interest to someone else, or you give up interest you could have earned.” 

If you’ve ever wondered whether there’s a “stop point” in IBC, or if you’re doing it “too aggressively,” this conversation will reframe the entire game.
