Meme Disclaimer
The official "We Say Funny Things But Don't Sue Us" page.
TL;DR Version
Our memes are jokes, not financial promises. Our rocket emojis are not legally binding commitments. We're serious about investing, but not serious about our communication style. Don't invest based on a GIF.
What Is A Meme (Legally Speaking)?
For legal purposes, a "meme" at smOl capital refers to any communication that:
- Contains humor, irony, sarcasm, or cultural references
- Uses informal language or emoji
- Exaggerates for comedic effect
- Includes images modified for humor
- References internet culture, trending topics, or viral content
Meme ≠ Investment Advice
When we post a meme about "going to the moon" or "lambos soon," we are not making predictions about investment performance. We are participating in internet culture, not making promises about returns.
If we tweet "This investment will make you 🤑🤑🤑" with the money-face emoji, that's not a guarantee of profits. It's us being enthusiastic in emoji-speak. Courts have not yet established a legal precedent for the money-face emoji, and we don't want to be the test case.
We're Professionals... With Meme Tendencies
smOl capital is a real investment fund run by experienced professionals who take your money seriously. However, we communicate in a way that's casual, internet-friendly, and sometimes meme-based. This communication style does not reflect our investment rigor.
Think of it like this: Your surgeon might post dancing TikToks, but they're still a professional when they operate. We post memes, but we're still professionals when we invest.
The Meme-to-Legal Translation Guide
| When we say (in memes) | What it legally means |
|---|---|
| "To the moon! 🚀" | "We hope this performs well but make no guarantees whatsoever." |
| "Wen Lambo?" | "Investment returns vary and luxury automobiles are not included with your €1000." |
| "Stonks only go up 📈" | "Investments fluctuate in value and may lose principal." |
| "Diamond hands 💎🙌" | "We have a long-term investment strategy but past performance is not indicative of future results." |
Official Statement
By engaging with smOl capital, you acknowledge that our memes, jokes, and casual communication are not financial advice and do not constitute promises of performance. You're investing based on our formal disclosures and investment strategy, not because we used the fire emoji.
