How to Escape the Debt Cycle the Banks Want You Trapped In w/ Harrison George and Christy Vann
Money School Podcast
For most people, debt isn’t a mistake; it’s just life. The mortgage, the car loan, and the credit cards are what everyone does. Making the minimum payments feels normal, but that actually keeps people stuck. Millions of families are drowning in debt, and they’re barely managing. They’re working hard, keeping up with their bills, but almost every dollar they earn goes right back out in interest. They’re not moving forward; they’re treading water. The hard part is, they’re not doing anything “wrong.” They’re doing what the system taught them to do: stay cash-poor while the...

Non-Food Franchises: A Shortcut to Entrepreneurship, Wealth & Tax Benefits w/ Jon Ostenson
Money School Podcast
When people hear “franchise”, they immediately picture a drive-through window and a fryer in the back. That narrow view hides one of the most accessible and profitable paths to business ownership today: non-food franchising. We’ve been taught that entrepreneurship means starting from scratch: writing business plans, building systems, and hoping your idea sticks. Franchising flips that equation. You’re not reinventing the wheel; you’re stepping into a proven system with training, marketing, and infrastructure already built. The best part? You can own a business that runs...

Why Most Pro Athletes Go Broke (and How Rashad Jones-Jennings Beat the Odds)
Money School Podcast
From the outside, pro athletes look like they’ve made it; like they’ll never have to worry about money again. Multi-million-dollar contracts, highlight reels, and luxury lifestyles suggest money will never be an issue. But behind the scenes, most players are one injury, one bad decision, or one contract away from financial ruin. The truth is, the average NBA career lasts just 4 years. Taxes, agents, lavish spending, and poor planning chip away at earnings until the fortune is gone, and with no plan for life after the game, many athletes end up broke and starting over from scratch....

Stacking Wealth: The 5 Returns You Can ONLY Get From Real Estate Investing w/ Axel Meierhoefer
Money School Podcast
Most investors don’t fail because they pick the wrong stock or buy into the wrong trend. They fail because they never define success for themselves. They chase returns without knowing what a win actually looks like. Without a clear target and purpose, investing becomes guesswork, and the chances of losing money are higher. Worse, they choose methods that look cool instead of ones they actually understand. They don’t give themselves a hard out, so they hold too long or sell too soon. And often, they pick investment vehicles that only pay them in one way. That’s where real estate...

Doctors Make Great Money Until They Don’t (The Passive Income Fix) w/ Dr. Jeff Anzalone
Money School Podcast
From the outside, doctors and dentists look like they’ve got it all: good money, respected careers, the kind of lifestyle most people want. But what almost no one talks about is how fragile that life really is. One accident, one injury, and the very hands that their entire career depends on can suddenly stop producing income. That was Dr. Jeff Anzalone’s reality after a skiing accident nearly ended his ability to practice dentistry. It forced him to realize: as much as medicine can be rewarding, it’s still trading time for money, and it can all disappear in an instant. The solution...

4,000 Reviews, $1M in Refunds: The Ugly Truth About IULs w/ Jonathan Aguilera
Money School Podcast
Most people who buy life insurance never read the fine print. They’re promised “stock market–like returns without the risk,” a retirement account that doubles as a tax-free loan machine, and peace of mind for their families. On paper? It looks like the perfect product. But what happens when the math doesn’t add up, the illustrations don’t match reality, and families find out, years later, that the policy they’ve been funding is set to collapse? That’s the dark underbelly of the Indexed Universal Life (IUL) industry. And it’s exactly what my guest, Jonathan, aka the IUL...

Don’t Wait: How to Line Up Business Financing Before You Need It w/ George Otel
Money School Podcast
Most business owners only call the bank when they’re in trouble. Cash is tight, deals are falling apart, stress is mounting. By then? It’s too late. The banks shut the doors and wave at you from behind the glass. That’s the obvious mistake. The less obvious one? Not realizing the best time to secure financing is when you don’t need it. That’s when banks give you more, on better terms, and when private lenders are willing to play ball. That’s the theme of my conversation with George Otel, founder of U.S. Business Funding. He’s closed 400+ deals, from SBA loans to $50M...
info_outlineHere’s the dirty secret in the term insurance industry: They win when you cancel. They win when your policy lapses. They win when you don’t understand what you really own.
Think about that for a second.
You’ve been sold on the idea that term insurance is the smart, affordable choice. But what no one tells you is this: it’s a ticking clock. If you outlive the term, you get nothing. All those years of paying in? Gone. Just like that.
Who wins? The insurance companies. Every. Single. Time. They count on you to drop it. They bank on you not knowing any better.
But what if you flipped the script? What if you could turn the tides and make term insurance work for YOU? What if you could unlock hidden value in your policy before it vanishes?
Because the truth is that you can. There are strategies the wealthy use to extract value from term policies that most people surrender without a second thought.
Rob Haynie, Managing Director at Life Insurance Settlements, Inc., joins me in this episode to expose the hidden greed within the insurance industry. We dive into how millions are misled when it comes to term life insurance. More importantly, we reveal how you can flip the script and use your policy to your advantage instead of getting taken for a ride.
Things You’ll Learn In This Episode
-Do more than just surrender
Most people with term insurance don’t realize there are alternatives to surrendering their policy. What if you could unlock hidden value from your term policy instead of just walking away from it?
-Slow economy surrender
In a slowing economy, many are surrendering their life insurance policies without realizing they may have better options. What are the other things you can do?
-Optimizing assets
Term insurance can be treated as an asset, just like your home, because you own it. If your term policy is an asset, are you making the most of its hidden value?
