Ep 247: Perpetual Family Banking with Blake Brogan and Rod Zabriskie

Subscribe to The Next-Level Income Show

The latest episode of the Next Level Income Show dives into one of the most powerful wealth-building strategies that most investors don’t know about—Perpetual Family Banking. Joined by Rod Zabriskie and Blake Brogan from Money Insights, we explore how high-cash-value life insurance can be used as more than just a safety net. Instead, it can be a tool to grow wealth, invest, and even provide tax-free income in retirement.

Blake kicks things off by explaining the Investment Optimizer, a strategy where investors store their cash inside a specially designed life insurance policy before investing. This allows money to continue compounding at a guaranteed rate while also being used for other investments. In other words, your money can work for you in two places at once!

Rod takes it further by discussing how to turn life insurance into a personal bank. This is the same strategy that the ultra-wealthy and big banks have been using for decades. Instead of parking cash in a low-interest savings account, this method provides liquidity, tax advantages, and protection while maximizing returns.

One of the biggest misconceptions about whole life insurance is that it’s a poor investment. However, when structured properly, it can provide predictable growth, tax-free access to cash, and a guaranteed death benefit that can be leveraged to build generational wealth. Rod and Blake share how investors can use these policies to fund real estate, businesses, and more—without interrupting compound growth.

Perhaps the most exciting part of the discussion is the concept of Perpetual Family Banking, a strategy that allows wealth to be passed down strategically. Instead of simply leaving an inheritance, families can create a self-sustaining financial system that continues to grow for future generations. It’s a game-changer for those who want to build true legacy wealth.
