Imagine a savings tool that had:
Guaranteed growth/return on investment (and weâre not talking under 1% like you get in savings accounts) Liquidity (access your savings income â tax and penalty-free â whenever you want) Borrow against the full amount of your savings (without risk of a margin call) â rather than withdrawing your money. Allowing your savings to continue to snowball and grow!And you know what?
I only mentioned a fraction of the benefits here. In this episode, I reveal the additional 10 benefits this savings tool has. And if your investment vehicle doesnât have these, youâre putting yourself at risk of inflation, banking greed, and the ever money-hungry Federal government.

If you spend it, that moneyâs gone and canât be used for anything else. And since youâve spent it, it canât appreciate for you: meaning you miss out on more than just the face value you spent.
