Sign up to find out what a Bank on Yourself system would look like for you at https://www.NewBankingSolution.com New Livestream guest- Mark Willis from Lake Growth Financial Services and host of Not Your Average Financial Podcast. I’m happy to have Mark join me on a live broadcast. It’s his 4th appearance on my channel!! We’re going to be talking about managing cash in your personal and business life. If you’ve heard him before, Mark teaches how to use participating whole life insurance policies as vehicles for cash liquidity. The biggest feature of all being that the cash value grows over time and that you don’t have to qualify for credit to access the equity in these policies. My question to Mark this time- How does inflation affect all of this? Tune in to find out. This is a strategy that I personally do. This is a ‘must see event’ for anyone with good personal cash flow or a profitable business. Be sure to join live so that you can ask questions, replay will be available. We’ll be going live November 17, 2022 at 12 Noon Eastern Time, 1:00 PM Atlantic Time See you there! David C Barnett
