In the interest of semi-full disclosure, I am currently licensed and working for a 401(k) company, so I'll tend to post more non-investment related stuff, having to do with retirement plans and such, directing people to where they can find more information.

Anyone who says "Wall Street" isn't regulated have never seen how many hoops we have to jump through, and how limited we are in what we can do or say.

I won't recommend specific securities, and I won't even tell someone what they should do with their money, because I can't give advice without knowing someone's full situation. I sure as heck won't be doing commercials for my employer or anything of the nature.

I hope I can answer basic questions in the spirit of being helpful and educating one another, without crossing over into what might be construed as "advice," which is a no-no.
