We know that no two relationships are the same. We also know that financial wants and needs become more complex as you accumulate greater income and wealth. Often, your strategy shifts from success towards significance.
We understand how the foregoing is a cause of concern and even leads to frustration. The current standard of financial advice offered by most Accountants, Financial Planners and Financial Advisors is severely lacking, especially for those of high net worth, or annual income producers in the middle of higher income brackets. Conventional solutions of the middle class often do not apply. You need custom solutions beyond what software alone cannot provide (e.g. the human element beyond artificial intelligence).
In exchange for your subscription, and investment in your education, you will receive specialized attention and access to world-class strategies and resources made available through the jurisdictionally protected financial facility that most Accountants, Financial Planners & Advisors simply are not aware of, or just can’t offer.
We offer:
- Innovative ways to provide liquidity
- Reduce liabilities
- Improve net worth
- Maximize asset protection
- Increase your privacy
- Boost cash flow
- Non-recourse leverage of assets
- Bank on Yourself
- Provide a greater impact with charitable organizations that align with your passion
- Transcend jurisdictional boundaries; and
- Enough resource materials to choke a horse!
Simply put, “we can give you the keys to your freedom, and the knowledge to maintain it.”

Historical Precedent
The first large-scale commercialized attempt to market the family bank / bank on yourself concept in the age of modern media came about in 1980, with Robert Castiglione’s founding of LEAP, Inc., and the publication of his book, LEAP, The Lifetime Economic Acceleration Process: The Key to Financial Success. Castiglione’s book, like Be Your Own Banker and Bank on Yourself, attempts to make the case for using life insurance to accomplish this purpose.
But the concept was nothing remotely new. In fact, the roots of this strategy go back generations, at least prior to the Civil War when farmers would acquire land and reduce the mortgage and related expenses with each harvest of their crops.
Why It Works
There are two concepts at the heart of the CFGPS concept, Bank on Yourself, the LEAP system, Be Your Own Banker, Infinite Banking, or any other similar systems … an inexpensive source of: 1) liquidity, or 2) finance, which is available without a credit application and minimal paperwork. You don’t have to pledge your home, and you never have to pay back the loan. However, it works better if you do pay off the loan, so you can take advantage of the cheap financing again and again, not to mention the tax benefits of certain interest deductions. The whole system is treated by the IRS similarly to a Roth IRA, funded with after tax dollars, but growth and income taken along the toll-free road is tax free.
Now just imagine a community of like-minded alumni collaborating in a similar peer-to-peer (P2P) capacity covesting with one another in like-kind fashion. Sound to good to be true? Ever heard of a good old fashioned barn raise? Intentional communities work … keeping it in the family and love your neighbor as yourself.
The Downsides
The concept works very well for some people, but it’s not a magic wand. Even with dividends, which aren’t guaranteed, the internal rate of returns available on the insurance policies is quite modest, especially in a low-interest rate environment.
- It’s not for people who don’t need or want a permanent death benefit.
- It’s not for people who can’t afford a term premium to protect their families.
- Expenses are front-loaded. The agent and insurance company can eat up half of the first year’s premium.
- It’s not for people with an unstable source(s) of income.
Circumstances When Such a Strategy Might Be Appropriate
Banking on yourself could be the select strategy for people in a variety of circumstances, such as:
- People who believe income tax rates will be higher in the future than they are now.
- People who are concerned they may be the target of lawsuits: Life insurance cash value, for example, often receives substantial protection from creditors, depending on your state of residence.
- People who want to save money for college while preserving their child’s or children’s eligibility for financial aid under the federal method of calculating a family’s expected contribution.
- People who want a portion of their portfolio allocated to modest but guaranteed growth.
- People who like the features of a Roth IRA and who would contribute large amounts of money to one if they could.
- You don’t want to have to wait until you’re 59 ½ to be able to access the money.
- You want assets to bypass probate at death.
- You expect to have an estate tax liability at death, or at the death of your spouse, if he or she survives you.
