18. Content is for Educational Purposes Only.

WealthMeta.com publishes general articles on the subject of personal finance, budgeting, net worth, risk reduction, home ownership, and other investment topics.  We are not registered investment advisors or securities brokers!  Wealth Meta falls under the "publisher’s exclusion" of Section 202(a)(11)(D) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and corresponding state securities laws as a"bona fide news­ paper, news magazine or business or financial publication of general and regular circulation".

Information we provide is for educational purposes and should not be considered financial or investment advice. In our calculators and other tools we have checked the equations and code used and we think they are right.  However, we offer you no guarantee of accuracy.  Data, calculation results, and charts and figures are provided "as-is".

Nothing found at WealthMeta.com is an offer or solicitation to buy, sell, or trade stocks, mutual funds, options, futures, real estate or any other type of security or investment. The investment decisions you make are solely your own and based on your own judgement with guidance from your financial advisor.

It is possible to loose money when investing. Past performance does not guarantee nor indicate future results.   Calculated investment results are based on simulated or hypothetical performance results that have certain inherent limitations. Unlike the results shown in an actual performance record, these results do not represent actual trading. Also, because these trades have not actually been executed, these results may have under-or over-compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated or hypothetical trading programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to these being shown.
