There’s a right and wrong way to use money—and it’s probably not what you’ve been taught. Most people unknowingly spend their principal and sabotage their wealth potential. But what if you could recover 100% of your money every month?

In this episode of the Private Banking Strategies Podcast, 25-year veteran money manager Vance Lowe exposes the hidden truth behind how traditional banking keeps you poor—and how the wealthy legally sidestep it. Discover how to build true financial independence by leveraging the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC) to grow, compound, and control your cash outside of Wall Street and government reach.

Vance explores why money has no value until it’s exchanged, how to recapture your money instead of spending it, and how to store your wealth in a private banking system that compounds for life.
