My keynote to 200+ Infinite Banking Advisors at this year's IBC Think Tank. Policy design for Infinite Banking is not just about getting the highest cash value in the first year.

There is no expertise in these types of designs.

The expertise lies in helping people massively increase the control they have over their capital - for the rest of their lives. Ironically, when you approach Infinite Banking with this mindset, you'll end up with much more cash value than a supposed "high early cash value" design.

The legendary Trent Fortner helps people see the dangerous, hidden corners present in almost everyone's financial picture. We get into the numbers to prove that whole life insurance is about 1/2 the cost of term insurance, if you know how to calculate it accurately using financial math.

If you're an agent who's been in the business for 30 days or 30 years, you'll get a ton out of Trent's upcoming workshop. Learn more about THE PRODUCER'S MASTERY WORKSHOP here:

The trendy obsession with "efficient policy design" in the whole life insurance and Infinite Banking space is cutting policy owners’ financial potential off at the knees.

The mindset is based on a fundamental misunderstanding: the belief that the growth of a life insurance policy works like an investment account, where more money early on means more money later. In reality, everything in a whole life policy is an actuarial calculation, and the trade-off for high early cash value is lost future potential — the ability to expand your policy as your income grows and your life changes.
