332: How Does Infinite Banking Actually Work? A Client-Turned-Advisor Explains
Reading time: 2 minutes Before John Saintloth ever taught the Infinite Banking Concept, he lived it. Before he became an advisor at Ascendant Financial, he was a client. Before either of those things, he was a 14-year-old boy reuniting with his mother in Canada five years after she had to flee Haiti and seek asylum at the American embassy. On a recent episode of Wealth on Main Street, hosts Jayson Lowe, CEO, Ascendant Financial, and Richard Canfield, Bestselling Author and Podcast Host, sat down with John to talk about the moment a Facebook ad stopped him mid-scroll, the book that kept […]

329: Josh Bought IULs for Infinite Banking, Here’s What Happened
The short answer is no. The longer answer requires understanding why, because the question is being asked more than ever, and the misinformation circulating on social media around this topic is causing real financial harm to real people. Right now, social media is full of content promoting Indexed Universal Life insurance as “infinite banking 2.0,” an upgraded, modern version of the concept that Nelson Nash created. It is not. And the man who created IBC said so directly, in writing, on page 39 of Becoming Your Own Banker. “I never sold one when I was in the business, and I surely wouldn’t buy one. I would not recommend it nor use it for the infinite banking concept.” – Nelson Nash Nelson Nash spent 35 years in the life insurance industry. He won lifetime achievement awards. He was a member of the Million Dollar Roundtable. He sat on every major committee in the industry. And in all of that time, he never sold a single Indexed Universal Life, variable life or traditional universal life policy. That statement should do a lot of your thinking for you. Why Is This Question Being Asked So Often in 2026? There are three reasons this question keeps coming up. First, social media marketing. IUL products are heavily marketed online. They illustrate well, meaning the projected numbers look impressive on paper. And they are being marketed aggressively by people who are either uninformed about IBC or who are deliberately misusing the trademark. Second, the trademark is being violated. The Infinite Banking Concept is a registered trademark of the Nelson Nash Institute. Authorized practitioners — like the advisors at Ascendant Financial have signed an agreement to use the concept and its trademarks correctly. Many people promoting IUL as an IBC vehicle are not authorized and are not following the trademark policy. Third, people genuinely do not know the difference. And that is not their fault. The distinction between a product and a process is not obvious. If the first content you encounter about IBC is promoting an IUL, it is entirely reasonable to assume that it is the right vehicle. It is not. The History of Universal Life: Where It Came From and Why It Matters To understand why IUL does not work for IBC, you need to understand what universal life actually is and where it came from. Nelson Nash was direct about this on page 39: “It was invented in the early 1980s by E.F. Hutton, a stock brokerage firm, in my opinion, that knew nothing about life insurance.” That matters. How we think about something is shaped by what created it. The insurance industry did not invent universal life to serve policyholders. It was invented by a stock brokerage firm to compete with whole life insurance during a period of high interest rates by unbundling the savings and insurance components of a whole life policy and putting them in a single package under a different structure. The original format was simple: one-year term insurance with a side fund of an interest-bearing account. In the 1980s, when interest rates were running at 10 to 12 percent, that side fund looked attract...

328: The Truth About Whole Life Insurance Past Age 100
It is one of the most common questions people ask when they first explore the Infinite Banking Concept, and one of the least talked about in mainstream financial planning. What happens to your dividend-paying whole life insurance policy if you actually live to age 100? Or past it? The short answer is this: the contract becomes more valuable the longer you live. It was literally engineered with extraordinary longevity in mind. But the full answer requires understanding a few key concepts: what happens at maturity, what the risks are if you have been borrowing against your policy, and why longevity planning changes everything about how you structure your financial life. Why Longevity Risk Is More Real Than Ever Most financial plans are built around a retirement window, a period between roughly age 65 and an assumed endpoint. Save enough to cover that window, and you are done. The problem is that the window keeps getting longer. Medical advances, improved nutrition, and AI-assisted healthcare are all pushing life expectancy further than actuarial tables predicted even a decade ago. A 65-year-old couple today has a very high probability of at least one spouse living well into their 90s. Living to age 100 is no longer a statistical anomaly. “Living to age 100, that’s not a freak statistical accident anymore. And if medicine keeps advancing the way that it is, I think that age 100, even age 121, could eventually feel like today’s age 85.” – Jayson, Wealth on Main Street And yet most financial planning conversations are still built around the assumption that you will not live that long. IBC addresses this directly, not by accident, but by design. How a Dividend-Paying Whole Life Policy Is Engineered for Longevity Here is the core mechanic that most people do not understand about dividend-paying whole life insurance. On the day you take out a policy, the insurance company makes a contractual commitment to pay a death benefit, let’s say one million dollars. You might put in fifty thousand dollars in the first year. The insurer is immediately on the hook for the full million. Every single day the policy is in force, the cash value inside the contract grows, accumulating toward the point where it eventually equals the death benefit. This is not a feature. It is a contractual obligation built into the design of every whole life policy. By the time the policy reaches its maturity point age 100 in Canada, age 121 in the United States), the total cash value and the total death benefit are identical. They converge. And at that point, the insurance company’s risk has been fully resolved. “The contract was designed recognizing longevity. The total cash value and the total death benefit at age 100 must be identical. That is a contractual guarantee.” — Richard Canfield, Wealth on Main Street This is not a bug. It is the whole point. The policy was always going to get there; the longer you live, the further along that journey you travel, and the more the asset has grown. Canada vs. the United States: The Age-100 and Age-121 Difference In Canada, whole life policies are calculated to an actuarial maturity point of age 100. In...

327: Why Entrepreneurs Lose Money to Banks
The Problem Nobody Talks About in Entrepreneurship You built the business. You’re generating revenue. From the outside, things look successful. But inside? You’re quietly dealing with limited financing options, unpredictable cash flow, credit lines that cost you, and a banking system that wasn’t designed with entrepreneurs in mind. That’s not a personal failure. That’s the system working exactly as intended, just not for you. In this episode of Wealth on Main Street, hosts Jayson Lowe and Richard Canfield sit down with IBC practitioner and Ascendant Financial teammate Leslie Corbett and his client Tara, a mindset coach, entrepreneur, and former realtor, for […]

326: Why Entrepreneurs Struggle With Cash Flow and How to Fix It
Many entrepreneurs are good at making money. The harder part is keeping control of it. In this episode of Wealth on Main Street, Ravi Kainth shares a powerful insight from more than 25 years of building businesses across different parts of the world, including Hong Kong and Canada: most business owners focus on income, but not enough on where their money goes after it arrives. Taxes, debt payments, operating costs, expansion, family needs, and lifestyle expenses can create a constant cycle where money comes in and quickly leaves. For many entrepreneurs, the issue is not a lack of effort. It is […]

324: What You Need to Know About Infinite Banking| FAQ
Q1: Am I Too Old to Start? Short answer: probably not. As long as you still need to use money, and most of us do until our last breath, the process of becoming your own banker is available to you. The concept itself is not age-dependent. What is age-dependent is the insurance tool used to implement it. If you want to be the life insured on the policy, there is a cap at around age 85. But here’s what most people don’t realize: the policy owner and the life insured don’t have to be the same person. You can own a […]
