Why The Wealthy Think Like Bankers
Episode 26
Tuesday, 27 January, 2026
In this episode of the Be Wealthy Podcast, host Brett Tanner sits down with financial educator and infinite banking expert Kyle Fuller to unpack how wealthy individuals think differently about money, liquidity, and control.Kyle shares his personal journey growing up in a large family, witnessing financial hardship during the 2008 crisis, and how those experiences shaped his philosophy around cash flow, reserves, and long-term wealth planning. Together, Brett and Kyle break down why education must come before investing, how poor liquidity destroys otherwise good strategies, and why following the crowd is one of the fastest ways to lose money.This conversation dives deep into infinite banking, wealth foundations, cash flow over net worth, and how to build a financial system that creates freedom — not stress.🔑 TOP TAKEAWAYSEducation comes before investing. You must understand the game before you play it.Liquidity is survival. Without reserves, even “good” investments can fail.Cash flow beats net worth. Income today creates freedom; paper wealth does not.Don’t follow the crowd. Investing without a personal strategy leads to losses.Wealth requires control, not complexity. Simple systems outperform scattered strategies.Banks play a different game — and so should you. Learning how banks think changes how you manage money.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 – Welcome and episode overview00:45 – Kyle Fuller introduction and infinite banking focus02:00 – Childhood money environment and family background04:45 – The impact of the 2008 financial crisis06:15 – Learning the importance of liquidity08:00 – Why most people invest without a clear plan10:00 – Defining investing criteria and risk tolerance13:45 – Cash flow vs net worth and lifestyle design16:45 – Money, time, and talent as limited resources20:30 – Discovering infinite banking and whole life insurance29:15 – How infinite banking actually works35:00 – Using policies to finance major purchases43:00 – Redirecting cash flow and controlling money51:00 – Car financing example and long-term impact59:30 – What wealth really means today01:04:30 – Books, advice to his younger self, and final thoughtsRESOURCES & MENTIONSBooks & Concepts MentionedBecoming Your Own Banker – Nelson NashInfinite Banking ConceptCash Flow vs. Net WorthLiquidity & Financial ReservesRisk / Return / Noise FrameworkOrganizations & EducationFACT FinancialBe Wealthy Mastermind⚠️ GUEST LINKS (KYLE FULLER)Factum Financial Educational ResourcesKyle Fuller & Factum Financial Facebook LinkKyle Fuller & Factum Financial InstagramKyle Fuller & Factum Financial LinkedIn
