Subject: Proposed rules
From: Rob Ahrens

July 26, 2018

I am encouraged to hear that the SEC is contemplating a requirement of brokers to act in the clients best interests .

As an average guy I have often felt that perhaps I was not getting the best advice from my broker but had nowhere to turn. Even though I have tried to educate myself about the financial world, I still feel quite ignorant due to the constant changing of product offerings and conflicting advice.

I approve any rule requiring brokers to act in my best interests.

Sincerely,

Rob Ahrens
