In this deep-dive episode of In The Lab, Ruben welcomes back Brent Kesler — creator of The Money Multiplier Method and returning guest from Episode 138 (2021). Four years later, Brent returns with even more clarity, more proof, and more real-world examples of how infinite banking can transform the way entrepreneurs, investors, and families build wealth. Now holding over 30 policies personally, Brent breaks down exactly how he uses IBC to fund real estate, pay off debt, move money through private lending, and build generational wealth inside properly structured trusts.
Brent not only does this himself but he’s empowered thousands of entrepreneurs to use this vehicle including yours truly — Ruben Kanya.
Brent explains why most people misunderstand whole life insurance, how wealthy families have used these strategies for over 200 years, and why “becoming your own banker” gives you control banks never will. He also unpacks the mechanics behind policy design, how to access capital tax-free, why death benefit matters less than cash value, and how to integrate IBC with real estate, business operations, and multi-policy ecosystems.
Throughout the conversation, Ruben and Brent explore advanced strategies — from infinite wealth loops to family banking structures, premium flow sequencing, private lending arbitrage, and legacy planning. Brent also shares what’s changed since 2021, why more sophisticated investors are now using IBC, and how anyone can start regardless of income level.
Tune in now to learn how to take control of your capital, build a long-term wealth engine, and design a financial system that compounds for generations.
