From: Judy Miller, CFP [mailto:judysrclass@earthlink.net] Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 11:08 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: File S7-25-99 To the SEC members considering the rule that "Certain Broker-Dealers Deemed Not To Be Investment Advisers." I am a sole practitioner striving to serve the public. I disclose how I am compensated and tell my clients the fiduciary standards I uphold. I meet with people who have had broker-dealers make recommendations to them that purportedly served their financial planning goals and who have later discover how ill-served they were by these planning suggestions. I wholeheartedly oppose this rule. Broker-dealers and their representatives should be required to meet uniform standards for the conduct of the financial planning profession. I request that you withdraw this rule. Sincerely, Judy C.
