Confessions Of A CPA - The Capital Equivalent Value of Life Insurance
Manage episode 436522561 series 3561351
With so many folks focused on accumulation and the rate of return (ROR) they earn, Bryan Bloom created a new metric to determine what you need to accumulate and receive as a ROR with alternative investments (stocks, mutual funds, real estate, etc) to have the (same) capital equivalent value (CEV) you gain with a specially designed and engineered whole life insurance contract. Though this book seems to just focus on this CEV concept, Bryan makes a strong case for combining your (uninterrupted) savings with the borrowing other people's money (OPM) to grow wealthier than you thought possible. IMHO, this is the essence of the Infinite Banking Concept (IBC), pioneered by R. Nelson Nash.
Though, remember, Nelson, took it one step further in his book, Becoming Your Own Banker. He said to capitalize this personal bank big enough, not to just be your own banker, for the financing needs of others :).
