Why Online Trading Academy Market Size Millions of Baby Boomers are in need of a financial education. And this market is projected to grow.

I don't think they are any at all. The only classes anyone should take are the basic courses offered in community colleges covering the basics of investments and the mechanics involved.
There is a reason why we have police to protect the weak from the strong at the point of criminality. It becomes very hard, however, to draw this line in trading. Unless you are a Buy-And-Hold equity guy, you are hoping to make money at someone else's expense. This concept of Qualified Investor is important. When dealing with big deals between wealthy entities, there are lawyers involved, and sometimes the contract reads like a game of chicken - which party is the one who will actually get the screwed in the end. We can't expect every business deal gone awry to be renegotiated in the courts, but can avoid bankrupting people who really can't afford to lose their money.
I understand your point, It is a very good one. I said originally that of course there should be fundamental protections to protect that from happening. I wouldnt want my grandmother or yours to lose her life savings. Psychics are scams too, and so are most of the beauty creams that tell your wife it will regenerate her skin, and so are $500 jeans that tell you they are the "best" you've ever worn. Everyone is selling a promise, a dream, you get what you pay for. If you paid top $$$ for a shitty system, too bad, lesson learned. You are now stronger, lets all move on. I didnt say it was right, I'm just pointing out that regulating vendors is overkill. But you still make a good point, we can agree to disagree.
