To whom it may concern:
I dont know everything about investing but I do know that I have done really good in the recent year. Im sure I wouldnt know enough to pass a test you might be talking about. I do have enough common sense to be careful with my money. Respectfully you shouldnt be able to tell me how at what to invest MY money in.

More regulations are baloney. We need to be free to make our own decisions. If you think you are "saving us" by making us take a stupid government class--you are wrong. You just want investing to be for the elites like Washington DC politicians and close off others from having a fair shake at making money.

I strongly oppose any restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. I believe it is my right to make investment decisions that are right for me and my family without regulators getting involved in those investment decisions. I know what is best for me, and I believe it is very presumptuous to assume a regulator is more concerned about my well-being and investment decisions than I am.

I think this is [REDACTED].  I should be able to invest my money were I chose. I am the one taking the risks. They need to keep their hand out of my public right to do this. If I wanted to go to school and pass tests to invest. I can make those choices for myself. Don't make any changes. This sounds like [REDACTED]

Please do NOT restrict my ability to freely trade leveraged and inverse funds to maximize my investment potential. I'm using these funds to increase funding for my retirement.

This proposal is atrocious. This is a move to stop people from being financially free. Its disgusting and you all have no idea what youre doing.

I believe that I do and I should continue to have the right to invest my own money as I see fit as a means to obtain my goal of long term financial security. Furthermore, what one may deem as "complex product" may seem a simple investment or investment strategy to someone else... you have no responsibility to make a decision as to the complexity of an investment on my behalf!
I and I alone should have the right to invest in whatever bonds, stocks, equities, etc. that I so choose without government interference.

I am a retail investor who enjoys testing and using various stock picking strategies for a part of my portfolio. I don't have any professional training in the workings of the stock market. However, I was a math major in college and a computer scientist by trade. I think I know enough to understand the basic concept of a leveraged ETF and/or inverse ETFs. I also use an analytical stock picking application to help me make my trades.

I oppose limitations on my investments. I feel it is my right to freely access the entirety of the public securities markets without arbitrary restrictions.

I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in any public security, I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me. >90% of investors lean on the advice of an investment advisor, make those who sell investments pass investment risk knowledge tests, this is where the majority of investment decisions are made in this country.
