Terms of Use

Please Read Carefully Prior To Using This Website

We invite our Members to enjoy all the features this site has to offer. But we must require that each subscriber abide by certain rules so that no one’s rights are stepped on. Failure to abide by these rules can result in immediate termination of access to this site, without refund or recourse.

I. A Message From Carl White:

I, Carl White, am not a financial advisor. I’m not an expert on financial advice or giving you any recommendations. All I’m doing in the section is sharing what I am doing for me, and I share here the ideas that I share with my family when we talk about these topics.

Nothing here is to be seen as a recommendation for you or for anybody. Consult with a financial planner, like I do, and do not buy or sell any stock or make any investments based solely on what you read or hear here. Do your own research and due diligence.

I’m not licensed nor qualified to make any personal “1 on 1” recommendations. The following is just a portion of the plan that I am implementing for my own situation, which is certainly unique to me, as your situation is unique to you.

I will be sharing what I am doing in my own personal portfolio, but this will be just a portion of my investments, as I also own investment homes, invest in private mortgage notes, and coins and metals.

As always, myself (Carl White), or any member (or guest on any given class) that provides content for our website, may have interests in the stocks they/we talk about (if the topic happens to come up in conversation, of course). 

Don’t buy or sell stocks based solely on what you hear or see around here, seek professional advice, and that is certainly not me.

Prior gaining entry to the partial information of my own personal investment portfolio, you agree to not hold me or any of the companies that I have an interest in, responsible for any gains or losses that you may or may not have, as again, I am not giving you any personal advise on where and how to invest your money.

Accordingly, we respectfully request that you do not send any such Feedback.

To the extent that Feedback is sent to TMA, TMA will treat such Feedback as non-confidential and non-proprietary in each instance. TMA shall not have any obligation of confidentiality with regard to the use or disclosure of any Feedback. Feedback may be used by TMA without restriction for any purpose whatsoever, and you hereby irrevocably waive, release and give up any claim that any use of such Feedback violates any of your rights, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, patents, moral rights, privacy rights, proprietary or other property rights, publicity rights, or right to credit for the material or ideas.

All Feedback shall be the sole property of TMA and will not be acknowledged or returned. You agree and understand that TMA is not obligated to use any Feedback you make to TMA and you have no right to compel such use.

You hereby acknowledge and agree that your relationship with TMA is not a confidential, fiduciary, or other special relationship, and that your decision to submit any material to TMA does not place TMA in a position that is any different from the position held by members of the general public with regard to your Feedback. You understand and acknowledge that TMA has wide access to ideas, stories, designs, and other literary materials, and that new ideas are continually being developed by TMA’s own employees. Many ideas may be competitive with, similar or identical to your Feedback. You acknowledge and agree that you will not be entitled to any compensation as a result of TMA’s use of any such similar or identical material.

Finally, you acknowledge that, with respect to any claim you may have relating to or arising out of TMA’s actual or alleged exploitation or use of any Feedback you submit to TMA, the damage, if any, thereby caused will not be irreparable or otherwise sufficient to entitle you to injunctive or other equitable relief or to in any way enjoin the production, distribution, exhibition or other exploitation of any production based on or allegedly based on the material.
