Maddison Fairburn Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

- It's abhorrent that regulators are proposing to choose the public investments that are right for me (not regulators). By definition public investments should be available to everyone, not just those who are of high net worth or in privileged positions. - I am university educated and capable of understanding both leveraged and inverse funds and the risks. I shouldn't have to jump through any additional hoops before using them. It's my money and I should be able to choose to do with it as I wish.

Jack Breese Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

We, public retail investors, should be able to choose which public investments are right for me and my family.

I shouldn't have to go through a special process before I invest in a public security.

BUT, if there are certain conditions that MUST be known about any said public security, that must be provided to me like it is in TD Ameritrade when I invest in a leveraged or inverse security. That disclaimer HAS to be there.

Restrictions aren't necessary when the right education and transparency is available about ANY public security.
