"not a financial advisor" is, practically speaking, much like SWIM (Someone Whom I Met) back in the early days of the Net when talking about drugs was 'likely' to get the police involved if you used your real name etc etc. The majority of the posts I had read on Reddit are way too emotionally persuasive and propagandistic that 'not a financial advisor' is really just meaningless. If I was a judge and had a case involved that sort of language while the information was obviously not balanced or neutral, I'd consider it line noise.
