Hi, my name is Richard Canfield. Back in August of 2009, I picked up a book and it completely changed my life. The book is called Becoming Your Own Banker. It was written by this incredible guy right here, R. Nelson Nash. Now the book is only 92 pages long, but reading the book completely shifted how I understood money, banking, the banking system, financial control. The book eventually led me to meet Nelson in 2012. Nelson, an incredible man. He became both my friend and a mentor to me. I had the privilege of spending many hours with Nelson over the years, attending his seminars and even having the opportunity to speak on stage with him. It was a true blessing to learn directly from the man who created the Infinite Banking Concept. Now, Nelson passed away, or as he would always say, he graduated in March of 2019, but I'm deeply honored to be able to continue sharing his message today as an authorized Infinite Banking Practitioner with the Nelson Nash Institute. Now, through our books, our client work, our monthly webinars, and our podcast, Wealth on Main Street, we're helping families across North America learn how to think differently about money control, long-term financial systems, legacy. And at its core, Nelson's message was about creating a peaceful, stress-free, and a prosperous way of life by taking back control of the banking function as it relates to you, your family, and your business. If you're curious about these ideas, the best place to start is exactly where I started. It's with the book. It's only 92 pages. It radically could change how you think about money and your financial future. Now, if you're anything like me, if you enjoy learning, if you allow love and value education, and you wanna be in the driver's seat of your financial life, you'll find a ton of great resources available here, plus access to this book. And who knows, one small book might change your life the same way it changed mine. Now, if questions come up along the way, feel free to reach out. Thanks for being here.
