The Four D's of 4-D Banking

Hutch from BankingTruths.com introduces 4-D Banking, a strategy that goes beyond traditional life insurance, leveraging assets like retirement plans, stocks, real estate, and precious metals to maximize compound interest and tax efficiency. By coordinating these assets, 4D Banking enables tax-free borrowing and mitigates risk while enhancing liquidity, allowing assets to continue compounding even when used. This approach emphasizes the “four dimensions”—tax exposure, growth potential, risk/volatility, and the “triple L’s” (liquidity, leverage, and loan rate)—to create a balanced, flexible financial strategy for building wealth over time.

At Banking Truths, we believe in providing education & modeling so you can decide if this strategy is a good fit for you:

  • Get all your questions answered
  • Learn in the context of your model
  • Never any pressure or hard pitches 

The Psychology of Debt with Infinite Banking vs. Velocity Banking

In this episode of “Road Noise with Hutch,” Hutch critiques the “debt-free dream” mindset, contrasting it with the wealth-building potential of Infinite Banking (IBC) and Economic Value Add (EVA). He explains his “4D Banking” system, combining ideas from Velocity Banking, IBC, and EVA to maximize cash flow, compound growth, and liquidity—enabling people to build wealth independently of traditional banks.
