Weekend Diversion: A Better Disclaimer

11 November 2006

For those of you looking to add more “teeth” to your usual investment disclaimer, we offer this one from a recent conference presentation:

“The opinions expressed in this presentation are not those of the speaker or anyone affiliated with the speaker. The speaker is making them up as he goes. The following presentation should not be assumed to be reliable, useful or even interesting. Any opinions expressed in the presentation are subject to change without notice – even during the presentation itself. Information presented herein is not guaranteed to be accurate, complete or in the ballpark. Any recommendations presented herein were derived from a rhesus monkey throwing darts at the stock listings page. Disagreement with the speaker is expressly forbidden – except where prohibited by law. The speaker may, at his sole discretion, use a “Chinese Wall” to ensure the audience is unable to throw anything at him. The speaker may or may not have an interest in the positions he advocates, and may not even be interested in them at all. Recipients of the presentation are asked to immediately forget anything they learned upon completion of said presentation. Parents are strongly cautioned. Do not attempt at home. Avoid contact with eyes.”

…which doesn’t seem that different from some of the other disclaimers we’ve seen recently.
