Andrew Cerra Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

As an investor, I should have the right to choose my investments, rather than have several familiar funds unavailable because I don't fit a special demographic. That is discrimination. When I invest my money, I take on the risk that comes with that. I do not need someone else to tell me I can't invest in specific funds under the veil of "looking out for me." Keep these funds available for everyone.

Alan Brown Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Leveraged and Inverse fund are very important tools. They are not hard to understand. More important, they are necessary tools that enable me to maintain financial security at a cost I deem to be very reasonable. I oppose any restrictions on my right to invest. Full Disclosure; YES. Restrictions; NO. They are unnecessary and seem to be designed to force me to hire a professional to invest, which means an automatic reduction in my net return.

Why cut your own throats? At a time when the market is in need of support the most,you propose restrictions? It does infringe on Americans' choice to simply select their own industry.If these "complex" undertakings are incomprehensible to some, they will either learn---or be taken under. Those who work hardest under the free enterprise system will truly earn their compensation and that is a right that will surely have it's consequences, if taken away.

In a time when the wealth gap is a great as it has ever been introducing these kinds of regulations is only going to ensure that it gets worse.

Restricting an investor's access, in any way, from complex securities or otherwise; only ensures that the wealthier among us, who can afford to meet these additional requirements, will have greater opportunities to invest than those of us who cannot. It does not matter how benign the restriction might be, it can only further disparage the wealth gap that regulators should be seeking instead to shrink.
