Ronald Demouthe Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Under FINRAs potential regulations, if your investments are deemed complex you might be required to: Pass a regulator-imposed test of your specialized investment knowledge Demonstrate a high net worth Get special approval from your broker Attest to reading certain materials Go through cooling off periods where you cant invest FINRA Should mind their own business and leave individual investors alone. We individual investors are smarter than you think we are and making individual investors and traders get special training or permissions to trade is wrong and should not be instituted.

To whom it may concern:

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest for the following reasons:

1) I should be able to choose any investments that are right for me.
2) Public investments should be available to all, not just the privileged.
3) I shouldn't have to go through any special process before I can invest in public securities as I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks.
4) Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies.

Thank you.

Just stop with the nanny state already. Enforce the rules you already have and obtain convictions for the fraud and malevolence which are everywhere in our financial markets. If you cannot prevent the looting at the ARK funds, or the huge batch of highly questionable IPO's from 1H 2022, what business do you have regulating leveraged instruments. There was huge risk to investing in TDOC or SHOP, yet these companies are available to anyone?
