Indeed. "Investor class" just means having enough saved, or enough income, that you are prepared to make investments where you can lose money. It's like saying those with FICO's over 480 have a monopoly on the ability to get a car loan, or that those with basic math skills have a monopoly on programming jobs.

Wrong. It's like saying there is a LAW requiring a certain credit score or a certain set of math skills. I don't have anything to add on whether investor accreditation is fair or not, but comparing federal law and regulations to loan or hiring opinions/choices is disingenuous. The comparison to predatory loan regulations or legal certification requirements for hiring would in fact be more apt.
You're 100% right.
