Paul Barker Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Enough of our rights have eroded enough. The United States is FREE nation where it's citizens make their own choices as to whether or not they will invest their money. It is not up to regulators or any other high-minded know-it-all to decide whether or not a person can invest in something. Investing has its risks, just as it has its rewards. It is not and NEVER should be up to some "regulator" to give anyone permission to risk their own money.

I clicked over to a website that does not support the proposed rule, but I *DO* agree with the limitations being proposed. I was Series 7 and Series 63 licensed, and have seen many people maneuvered into investments that neither they nor their financial advisors understood. The results can be devastating. I think it might be better to do a two-pronged approach with limits on the types of investments being sold, but perhaps that is happening as well. In any case, yours is a complex job and I do not envy you!
