A look at the most important component of Privatized Banking: how you want to use your money. What this wealth creator is investing in, and why. Where A Family Bank Fits into Your Cash Flow System Starting a family bank strategy with Specially Designed Life Insurance Contracts (SDLIC) is just one step in the greater Cash Flow System.

We said before that Privatized Banking is like the peanut butter to your cash flow sandwich.  It’s wedged between Stage 1 – keeping more of the money you already make – and Stage 3 – increasing your cash flow from investments. And it helps you do everything else better.
