It is not the lack of knowledge about money that is impairing your wealth building, it’s what you think you know about money (but don’t) that’s slowing your efforts.  Most people let the money they earn come and go and fail to maintain control over the dollars they earn.

17. Why You Should Dump Your 401K as Fast As Possible



Most working people participate in traditional government-sponsored retirement programs like 401K’s, IRA’s or 403B’s.   They really don’t know why they are participating in such programs other than “it’s what everyone else is doing” or “my employer is making contributions, so I have free money.”

15. Protecting Your Assets in the “Vault” of Private Banking Strategies®



“It’s not what you make that counts, it’s what you keep that counts.” 

And what you keep entirely depends on having an asset protection plan in place. 

Having an asset protection plan in place is a necessity for those who have cash, real estate, a business or any other asset worth protecting. Fact is, if you have anything of value, you are a target in today’s society! 

… A target for the taxman, aggressive plaintiff’s attorneys, creditors, and thieves…your assets are attractive simply because you have something to take. 

If you have ever been sued or had your bank accounts frozen and sucked dry right before your very eyes, then you know how it can destroy not only your finances, but also your family.  It can rock you emotionally — destroy your confidence, your ability to function or make any money at all to just survive. 

Which is why asset protection is the number one pillar of Private Banking Strategies®. Our clients range from high-net worth individuals, entrepreneurs, investors, to successful family-owned businesses …but they all have one thing in common – they want to legally keep what they’ve earned out of the reach of others who want to take it! 

In this episode Vance Lowe and Seth Hicks, Esq. share: 

  • How to create an impenetrable private cash “Vault” of protection with Private Banking Strategies®
  • Why Asset protection is the first pillar of the Private Banking Strategies® 
  • Why your bank deposits in a branch bank are not safe (see the Dodd Frank Act)
  • Why FDIC insurance is not all that it is cracked up to be! …don’t be one of those who get side-swiped
  • How to get tax freedom with complete liquidity in your asset-protected vault 
  • And more…

14. Can Your Business cash flow catapult you personally into financial freedom? Paul Bunyan Part 3



Paul Bunyan put his business cash flow to work – he didn’t work harder or earn more from his business – he just changed how the money flowed.  He only made one simple change to unlock this goldmine: Instead of using traditional financing companies (3rd party lenders), he started his own family bank and financed his business through his own bank.  What ensued was nothing short of astounding.  With only an initial 40K investment he created a retirement goldmine which allowed him a 500K personal distribution per year tax free throughout all his retirement years with no risk of ever running out of money.  And he left over a 5-Million-dollar legacy to his heirs – all tax free

This secret retirement goldmine is not exclusively for the rich and famous.  Paul Bunyan started out with relatively little.  He simply changed who financed his business necessities.  Instead of allowing traditional banks to make all the money off him and his business, he created his own family bank and financed his business through it.  With that simple change, he was able to create the “velocity of money” and became financially free in just a few short years.  

In this episode Vance Lowe and Seth Hicks, Esq. of Private Banking Strategies share: 

  • How quickly Paul’s wealth increased when he began to finance his business through his own family bank
  • How quickly Paul needed to expand the size of his family bank just by getting multiple touches on the same dollar and riding the “velocity of money.” 
  • Why there is no other asset or investment out there that can provide the same guaranteed returns
  • Why you need to get your money working inside your own family bank rather than giving its’ power to traditional banks
  • And more…
