The fund I use is an important tool for me. From my point of view you are trying to fix something that is not broken. In a free country, one should be able to choose their own investments and be responsible for the risk themselves. My input is that there be no restrictions on these securities.

I was an advisor with a series 65. Some of my clients were knowledgeable some not. There is no doubt that FINRA has some good regulatory laws but guys this is a huge over reach. It is not your job to protect me against myself. This is play money not retirement money. Even if ten or twenty percent of my retirement money was in derivatives that is none of your business. Let the broker and or the advisor decide who should use these funds or ETFs. I go to the horse track but I dont bet my mortgage payment. I believe that the market is in for a huge correction.

It is unfortunate when others think they should have the right to impose restrictions on people. I am a licensed advisor and believe the regulators should concentrate on more crucial areas and fraud instead of regulating the common investor.

I do not need the government choosing my investments for me.

This is a serious infringement upon my rights.

I see this as a significant over reach by the government.

This regulation is unnecessary and unwarranted.

IF I decide to dump all my USA Dollars over the side of a cliff
(actually IF I decide to make "poor investments") what right do you have to tell me its "against the Law.!!"
