Terms of Use

Terms and Conditions

By visiting and using the website, www.InvestingFromTheBeach.com , you agree to be bound by and to comply fully with the Terms and Conditions as stated below.  

DefinitionsThe terms “our” or “we” or “us” refers to Toro Oso, LLC, as well as its agents; its employees; and its contractors.  Toro Oso, LLC is the owner of the www.InvestingFromTheBeach.com website.   The term “user” or “visitor” refers to someone that is browsing the website and/or consuming the “content” of the website.

All data, text, images, graphics, audio, design, and information found throughout the website, whether produced by us or others, is collectively referred to as “content”.  

The material presented on this website and in the podcast is for educational purposes only.  Toro Oso, LLC; its agents, employees, and contractors are to be held harmless against any civil actions.  Even if registered or licensed as such, we are not acting as brokers, advisors, nor registered agents.  Any material or contact with the firm or its agents, employees, or contractors is not to be construed as investment advice nor as a solicitation for funds.  Investing involves risk.  Trading involves risk.  Trading in real estate, stocks, options, commodities, currencies, and other derivatives is very risky and subjects you to risk of losses that can potentially be greater than your original investment.  

The material discussed and contained on this website is not a substitute for obtaining professional advice.  Nothing in the website shall constitute financial, legal, investment, nor any other professional advice.  There is no professional relationship between you and Toro Oso, LLC.   No one associated with Toro Oso, LLC (agents, employees, contractors, advisors, et al), even if registered or licensed as such, is acting as a broker, advisor, agent, mental health care professional, accountant, tax advisor, nor lawyer.  We recommend that you obtain advice from professionals in the respective fields before making any trading or investing decisions.  You agree that you shall not make any financial, investment, legal, or other decision based on anything contained in the website.  Any past results are not indicative of future performance.  The material on this website is for illustration and information purposes only.  

To summarize it succinctly: If you are to achieve time freedom, then you will eventually realize that each of us is responsible for our past and for our future.  Once that realization truly sinks in, then the path to time freedom will be much smoother.  If everyone would accept responsibility for our own actions, then we would not need to write all of these legal disclaimers.  We are currently unemployed and have been for nearly two decades.  Our intent with this website is to discuss time freedom and what it took for us to achieve that.   We’ll also discuss our observations of others as they progress on their journey to time freedom.  We guarantee that your results will vary from what we experienced.  If you’d like to achieve time freedom, then before taking any action regarding trading and investing, you can choose to listen to someone who has achieved it, and/or you can (and should) listen to someone who is employed as a licensed professional.  That should cover just about everything.   

Our ServicesOur website offers a podcast for people who are interested in having their money work for them.  There are also some affiliate links to products that website visitors may find to be helpful in their quest for education.
