Pls consider signing compensate and protect bond investors W

And I quote, from their website:

In plain English:

• Money you put in is at risk
  
• Money you expected to warn through interest may not materialise
  

You are investing. There is an element of risk. At no point should the tax payer be bailing you out for choosing poorly. (Unless of course you're a "too big to fail" bank, in which case it seems the rules don't apply to you)

If you don't understand that, you shouldn't be putting money into these products. It's that simple.

Full disclosure: I am a Wellesley investor who is going to lose money from this farce. But that was the risk I took. And it's mine alone to take.
