In this podcast episode, Kevin Thompson critiques the concept of "infinite banking." He explains that while the idea of using cash value life insurance policies to become one's own banker sounds appealing, it is often misrepresented and complex. Kevin shares his personal experiences with permanent life insurance, highlighting high fees, minimal early cash value, and the risks of policy loans. He stresses the importance of working with knowledgeable fiduciaries and offers alternative wealth-building strategies like low-cost index funds and retirement accounts. Kevin aims to educate listeners on making informed financial decisions.

"Infinite banking my ass! There is nothing to bank on because there is very little cash to do much with early on."
