Financial Freedom Is Closer Than You Think – Part 2 (Ep. 79)



Many think paying cash or using 0% auto financing is best for buying a car. Think again! You can finance your vehicles on your terms through your own bank and create a solid retirement plan simultaneously.

In this episode, Vance Lowe and Seth Hicks, Esq. of Private Banking Strategies® explore the drastically different retirement outcomes of two sisters who “self-financed” their cars.

One ended up with a $250K nest egg providing $50K annually for five years, while the other had a $1 million nest egg providing $50K annually for life and a $1.4 million legacy value for her heirs.

This is a great example of how simple auto financing can turn into a successful retirement plan!

Vance and Seth discuss:

  • Reversing money outflow to cash inflow – getting multiple uses from the same dollar
  • Using the velocity of money for uninterrupted, tax-free compounding interest
  • How Private Banking Strategies® can ensure financial security in retirement
  • How one sister achieved financial freedom without working harder or earning more
  • And more…

Financial Freedom Is Closer Than You Think – Part 1 (Ep. 78)



People are often skeptical when told they can achieve financial freedom by financing their automobiles through their own bank. But once they understand, they’re eager to start. Private Banking Strategies® offers a guaranteed tax-free return, turning car purchases into substantial nest eggs.

The results were striking: the “CD sister” lacked funds when she needed them, while the “Private Banking Strategy sister” had more than enough. This episode demonstrates the stark difference between these strategies and highlights how Private Banking Strategies® can provide financial security and peace of mind.

In this episode, Seth and Vance discuss:

  • The significant differences in each sisters’ outcomes despite equal investments
  • Why one strategy was far more effective
  • How to break free from the cycle of burning cash and lock in your own financial freedom and wealth creation
  • How to structure your own Private Banking Strategy
  • And much more!
