In this week’s episode, Tracy sits down with Winnie and Lacy, of Ranch Your Way and advocates of the Infinite Banking Concept, to discuss how ranchers and farmers can take control of their finances — and their future — by becoming their own banker.

The Infinite Banking Strategy uses properly structured whole life insurance policies to create your own personal banking system. Instead of relying on traditional banks, you can finance equipment, land, or livestock from within your own operation — keeping more money in your family’s hands.

Winnie and Lacy share how they discovered this concept, the real-life financial challenges that led them here, and how they’ve adapted Mary Jo’s Farming Without the Bank for Canadian farmers and ranchers. 

You’ll also learn practical steps to get started, how to begin small, and why this strategy can be a game-changer for succession planning and multigenerational wealth.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

1. What the Infinite Banking Concept is — explained simply.
2. Why it’s especially powerful for farmers and ranchers.
3. How a whole life policy can be used to finance land, equipment, or livestock.
4. The financial struggles that inspired Winnie and Lacy to bring this strategy to Canada.
5. Gaps Canadian farmers face with banks, taxes, and financing.
6. How families can start small without overhauling everything.
7. The role of Infinite Banking in succession planning and teaching the next generation about money.
8. The biggest transformations they’ve seen among ranchers who take control of their finances.

You don’t need to overhaul your entire operation to start — you just need to take the first step toward becoming your own banker. 

Infinite Banking isn’t just about money; it’s about freedom, legacy, and control for your family and your farm.

Thanks for tuning in,

Tracy
