Richard Canfield speaks about Nelson's concept (the Infinite Banking Concept/whole life insurance) and why discussing it can make practitioners feel like outsiders or "lone rangers." He emphasizes the importance of building communities that share language and principles around controlling the banking process to meet diverse financial needs, and of using these tools to provide value for family.

Chapters

When you're embracing Nelson's concept and then you walk into a room and all of a sudden you start talking about whole life insurance, you can very quickly be ostracized on the outside of the circle of the group of people. You want to be a lone ranger. And that's part of why we want to embrace bringing people together in as many environments as we can, so that we're able to be connected around not just the same language, but the same elements that we're all embracing. We might have different financial makeup, different financial challenges, but we're all trying to control the banking process as it relates to our needs, and that's really what binds us together. And then doing something of value for the people we love and care about, which is our family.
