Summary  I start the episode with a 50yo speech from Admiral Rickover, father of the Nuclear Navy about the importance of business ethics delivered just before our bicentennial that is just as relevant leading into the 250th celebration. Then I shift to break down a topic I find that most people don't understand - Whole life insurance policy loans with the Infinite Banking strategy are not magic or even special. What's special is the cash value backing it. Good rule to remember - loan interest rates simply reflect the risk. If rates are low, then the risk is really low. Life insurance companies historically offer the lowest rates anywhere because of the strength of the cash value.   Episode Highlights 00:00:14 - Misunderstanding policy loans. 00:01:17 - Frustration with misinformation in the industry. 00:01:32 - Admiral Hymen G.
