Nathan Rinzema Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I should have the freedom to make my own decisions and take full responsibility. I cannot accept these measures you are proposing. Do not treat me like I cannot be responsible. Do not fall back on old outdated rules/laws/thinking. I'm tired of government inserting itself into my life unnecessarily. Please give me the room and respect to make these decisions for myself without interfering.

Mr. Kahraman Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I have been investing in the stock market for more than twenty-five years. When I invested in individual securities in my early investment years, I wasn't successful at all. After switching to the first ETF, then only leveraged ETFs, my success in investment improved drastically. Eliminating the leveraged ETFs from the choices of investment vehicles is the wrong decision. If the leveraged ETFs are volatile, how about the individual securities, mutual funds, and options.

Please don't super regulate a public security already approved by the SEC. This is a violation of my right to free choice. I could see your interference if I could take advantage of someone or the reverse, but simply put, you are trying to save me from myself. I don't need a bureaucrat deciding what I should or should not buy, especially when it comes to choosing securities.

Liberty and freedom are precious rights, I take them very seriously.

Erin Chavis Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I am a retired public school teacher who taught for 42 years and I tell you that I oppose any form of restrictions on my simple retirement investment. I am a widow whose husband was too ill to work most of our married life and he REFUSED to claim disability because he didn't believe in handouts. My investment is from my many years of teaching and it is such a small amount but I believe that you have no right to interfere with my life regarding my earned money.

George Klein Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

it would be a huge mistake to eliminate or limit purchase of leveraged or inverse funds. I use them to limit the downside of my bond and stock holdings. Without it , no question, volatility would increase & an important tool taken away from the public. Complex investments can use more education & disclosure from ISSUERS; but certainly not the proposed investment knowledge disclosure, financial disclosure of INVESTORS. It would hurt investors, discourage them from valuable investment tools. We do not need these new measures.
