Dear FINRA, It has been brought to my attention by my brokerage firm that your regulatory agency is considering stripping me of my right to invest my money as I see fit. I do not believe you should choose what equities or funds in which I can invest or whether or not I take a long or short position in those equities or funds. Furthermore, do not require me to take some course that you develop to be able to invest in the above mentioned avenues. I am fully capable of educating myself on investments and the inherent risks involved. Please stay out of my way and let me invest as I see fit.
