R. Nelson Nash (1931 - 2019) was the author of the classic book Becoming Your Own Banker that unfolded The Infinite Banking Concept (IBC).

Nelson was fortunate to do what he loved, I’ve heard him say that the last 20 years of his life had been his most fulfilling. By sharing what he loved, everyone that personally knew him was blessed and changed forever. He was one of the few on this earth that inspired and impacted thousands of people he never met. He created a gift for us that we must continue to share. We are blessed to have the challenge to continue his legacy so that future generations can benefit from his gift.

A funeral service was held in Nelson’s honor at the First Baptist Church of Birmingham, 2209 Lakeshore Drive, Birmingham, AL 35209, on Saturday, March 30 at 11 a.m. Visitation will be held immediately prior to the service, beginning at 9:30 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations in Nelson’s memory may be made to First Baptist Church of Birmingham, 2209 Lakeshore Drive, Birmingham, AL 35209.
