Is this for real? Why can't I invest my own money in stock I choose? I'm not a child. I research then if I'm comfortable with a company I invest. This is the dumbest invasive regulation! You cannot tell people what to do with their hard earned money

I choose investments based on my own research and situation. With a BS in Engineering and a MS in Science and Technology Management, I believe I am perfectly capable of making my own investment decisions without FINRA's help or interference.
