## Resource

If you’ve been researching how wealthy families manage money, you’ve probably come across two terms over and over again: the Family Bank (also known as Infinite Banking) and the Micro Family Office. Most people assume they’re basically the same thing. They’re not. In this video, I break down the real difference between these two approaches—and why confusing them often leads high-net-worth professionals to buy financial products when what they actually need is infrastructure. You’ll learn why one is simply a tool, while the other is a full operating system for managing wealth.
