Please read this message carefully before exploring any financial services website.
The purpose of the Kiawah Golf (or not) Investment Seminars website is threefold:
- to promote the somewhat unique (and non-mainstream Wall Street) Investment Strategies of Investment Manager Steve Selengut;
- to promote the sale of a book entitled The Brainwashing of the American Investor;
- to provide educational information to the investing public in the form of fee paid Investment Seminars and Workshops.
Every statement, discussion, illustration, and representation contained anywhere on this website and within Investment Seminars and Workshops is entirely the creation and opinion of Steve Selengut (unless noted otherwise). Nothing said or alluded to has been researched beyond the scope of the author's personal (and quite extensive) experience in the investment arena.
It is presumed that visitors to this website will take the initiative to both investigate and question the information that is provided. Certainly, anything said here is subject either to criticism or to objection by others in the field. That doesn't make it wrong. But it is clearly not anything like the blather that emanates from many other resources. Nothing should be construed to be absolute, or predictive of anything at all.
No specific statistics regarding performance of client accounts are presented for various reasons, not the least of which is the incredible hassle it is to substantiate such statistics in the format and time limitations required by regulatory agencies. For performance information, I provide a list of references that prospective clients may contact at their leisure.
[Actually, I'm not a big believer in conventional performance analysis anyway, based as it is on calendar time periods, market value comparisons with averages and indices, and non-client specific benchmarks.]
References will only be provided to participants who understand the investment strategies, definitions, and concepts discussed in the workshops AND who have completed the complete Workshop Series, AND who have indicated a serious interest in hiring Sanco Services to manage their investment programs.
The Workshop and Seminars are not generally promoted to Sanco Services clients, but it is likely that some will elect to attend.
My basic assumption is that the select group of humans that visit this website are intelligent enough to interpret what they read without being misdirected. If interested, they will know how to reach out for more information.
Never be shy about asking questions of the person who either will be directing your investments, or taking your directions. If you don't agree with any aspect of the strategy that you feel is important, you should consider implementing some other strategy. The WCM has been operating in pretty much the same form for nearly forty years.
Sanco Services believes that it only does business in states where it has registered properly (or within which it is not yet required to register), according to applicable rules of the states in question.
Sanco is not legally affiliated with any broker dealers, but we do have a thirty-year plus, non-binding, business relationship with the one stockbroker we are presently using for transactions, statement preparation, and other related brokerage services. Representatives of that firm are mentoring students and will be regular attendees of these seminars and workshops.
Nowhere within this website should any statement, number, notion, or illustration be taken as a guarantee of anything at all.
Now wasn't that more fun than this mainstream disclaimer, which also applies?
