Life can throw you a curveball at any time. Are you ready for it? Studies are showing us that only 41% of Americans can cover an unexpected $1,000 expense. That doesn't create much margin in your life if something were to happen.

In today's episode, Jason and Colt share the importance of creating that cushion, that margin in your life, and to be prepared for the unexpected. They also lay out the "Five Steps to Wealth" that you can follow in order to bring you financial freedom.

Five Steps to Wealth:

1) Improve Skills to Increase Income

2) Invest Increased Income in Cash Flowing Assets

3) Maintain Discipline with Standard of Living

4) Reinvest Passive Income Until It Exceeds Earned Income

5) Improve Standard of Living ONLY From Surplus Passive Income

In today's episode we'll talk through a real-life example on how Jason and his wife used their "Infinite Banking" policy to purchase their vehicle. When we pay with cash, we lose the interest that we could have made on that money forever. If we get a loan from a traditional bank, we pay them interest instead of recapturing it ourselves. So there's a third way that we believe is far superior than the others!If you like what you hear, do us a favor and subscribe to the channel. We'd love to hear from you.

In this episode, we're so grateful to talk about a process created by R. Nelson Nash, called the Infinite Banking Concept. We break down all five steps that the Nelson Nash Institute describe to create tailwinds in our financial lives. We finance everything in life, regardless of if we get a loan or pay cash. If we pay cash, we lose the future interest that our money would have made if it were left in our investments, and did not interrupt the compounding effect. The Infinite Banking Concept is gaining major traction in the financial world, although some of the old school "Financial Gurus" still think it's a scam. If you keep an open mind, and dig into the research behind it, you might just find a way to multiply your wealth!If you like what you hear, do us a favor and subscribe to the channel.
