    This week, Dave and Paul ask a simple question:


    “Are you better off now than you were 4 years ago?”


    It’s no secret that IBC is a stable asset, in fact, it will continue to appreciate no matter who the President is, or the state of the economy.


    This is the best “place” for your money to be. Protected from uncontrollable external factors that you can’t plan for.


    No more hills and valleys like you see in the stock market, or with a 401k – no more getting screwed by inflation, the Fed, taxes or politicians.


    So tune in to see how, financially, you can be “better off than you were 4 years ago”, and for each year after that..
