55: IBC, HSAs, Health, and the Freedom to Heal

Strategic Whole Life by Infinite Banking Authorized Practitioners

In this very special special and personal episode, we interview co-host John Montoya's wife, Kelly Vail, about her battle with cancer.

As a business owner, Kelly started IBC as a way to be more efficient with her cash flow. Little did she know that, years later, the living benefits of whole life insurance would literally save her life.

When the healthcare system had no answers and gave her only months to live, the access to money created by her whole life and disability insurance gave her the flexibility and space that she needed to take matters into her own hands.

Kelly has documented her journey, including the treatment path she took to get healthy on her blog here:
