To the and Exchange Commission,

My life goal was to achieve financial independence for retirement.  I'm
sure many other Americans have similar goals.  But this is less likely
to be achievable unless financial advisers owe a duty first to their
clients.

If you allow financial advisers to legally exploit average citizens,
you are intentionally allowing gross exploitation by your
action/inaction.  Anyone who is making money based on financial advice
should be held to fiduciary standards.

Sincerely,

Mr. Allen Sexton
