Last updated: June 13, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Yolo or Bust ("the Service," "we," "us," or "our") at yolobust.com, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Yolo or Bust, operated by Yolo or Bust ("Operator").

2. Description of Service

Yolo or Bust is an educational finance platform providing access to a Pro earnings calendar, AI-generated company research reports, post-earnings analysis, the Operator's personal investment positions, public Wealth Guide materials, manual Wealth Tools calculators, and an optional My Wealth Path dashboard for self-reported budgeting, debt, emergency fund, retirement, index fund, and high-risk bucket planning. The Service may also include account settings, support tools, gift memberships, referral tracking, newsletters, and data export or deletion controls. The Service is provided for informational and educational purposes only. Earnings, archive, newsletter, and Positions content is general-audience publisher commentary, not advice based on any user's account, portfolio, risk tolerance, tax situation, time horizon, or personal circumstances.

3. NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE - IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER

THE CONTENT PROVIDED ON YOLO OR BUST, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO EARNINGS CALENDARS, RESEARCH REPORTS, COMPANY ANALYSIS, INVESTMENT POSITIONS, COMMENTARY, WEALTH PATH DASHBOARDS, CALCULATORS, BUDGET TEMPLATES, TAX ESTIMATES, DEBT PAYOFF ESTIMATES, RETIREMENT ESTIMATES, AND ALL OTHER MATERIALS, IS FOR INFORMATIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE FINANCIAL, INVESTMENT, TAX, LEGAL, ACCOUNTING, MORTGAGE, OR RETIREMENT ADVICE. Yolo or Bust is not a registered investment advisor, broker-dealer, tax advisor, attorney, accountant, financial planner, or any other type of licensed financial professional. Nothing on this platform should be construed as a recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security, cryptocurrency, ETF, or other financial instrument.

You acknowledge and agree that: (a) all investment decisions are made solely at your own risk; (b) past performance is not indicative of future results; (c) you may lose some or all of your invested capital; (d) the Operator's personal positions disclosed on the platform are his own, are not a model portfolio, and are not recommendations for you to buy, sell, hold, trade, or take the same positions; (e) calculators and Wealth Path outputs are rough estimates based on manual inputs and changing laws; (f) you will conduct your own independent research and consult with qualified professionals before making investment, tax, legal, mortgage, or retirement decisions.

The current manual product does not request bank logins, brokerage logins, account numbers, Social Security numbers, employer payroll access, or exact account access. Connected accounts are not live in the current product. If optional read-only account linking is offered later, it must be clearly disclosed, consent-based, and revocable. Manual entry works forever, and imported values can suggest updates but will not silently overwrite numbers you entered. If a page, email, or third party asks for sensitive credentials while claiming to be Yolo or Bust, do not provide them and contact us.

Wealth Tools are not tax filing software, mortgage underwriting software, retirement planning advice, or a substitute for professional review. Tax brackets, California rules, federal rules, contribution limits, interest rates, insurance costs, and market assumptions can change. You are responsible for verifying numbers before relying on them.
