Molly Lynn Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I strongly oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. Just become someone isn't already a "high net worth individual" or doesn't have a high salary job, doesn't not automatically mean they are not intelligent enough to understand how investing works. Even more "complex" investing strategies can be learned and individuals can understand their own risk tolerance and easily research what the risks of certain strategies are. Leveraged and inverse funds can be an important piece of some overall investment strategies.

I write to you in strong opposition to the proposed rule changes to which this public comment refers. I understand and applaud FINRA's desire to protect consumers - however I must insist you find a different way to do it. Simply restricting my access as an individual investor to a broad range of investments doesn't serve to protect me - it serves to drive my investing into underground, risky, and possibly illegal enterprises.

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST!

Individual freedom is important. Seat belt rules should be kept to the absolute bare minimum possible (if at all).

Making it harder to invest in these classes of investments just exacerbates the problems we have with the disparity between ordinary people and professional investors.

Leveraged and inverse funds are important strategies, do not prevent people like me from being able to utilize them, especially during periods of volatility and uncertainty like the current environment.
