I had a client once, of limited resources and income, who was sold tax shelters. When tax shelters went bust she lost most of her investments. Once again she trusted a small investment company instead of investing with bigger more reputable firms. She sued, or went to arbitration, and she lost. The reason she lost was because they determined she was a reasonably intelligent person and should have made herself aware of what she was purchasing? Did you look at these investments and present any questions to Whitaker…or did you blindly trust him? |

This morning I got a personal message from Michael Whitaker asking me to go back and post the corrections to the mistruths that I had made on the forum. Yes, he guessed who I was by my tag MDFLYER since he knew I was a corporate helicopter pilot and from Maryland. I made no mistruths and will not make any corrections.

It appears that Mr. Whitaker has chosen not to answer our questions. Crickets are chirping, Mr. Whitaker. Your silence speaks volumes. The OP can file a formal complaint via the FINRA website. Google “File a FINRA Broker Complaint”. Scroll to the FINRA.org website.
Also, the following link describes another financial advisor in The Villages that was aggressively selling these high-risk L-bonds to seniors and ended up with around 17 disclosures and at least 12 SEC awards. Mr. Whittaker settled one disclosure complaint for $14,999, according to the FINRA website. I suspect Mr. Whitaker is going to have his hands full defending the sale of these bonds as a precedent has been arbitrated.

Whitaker has stated, in a private message to me, that he will not respond and lower himself to the level we are. He cannot admit, with positive answers, to the questions you ask because then Michael L Whitaker and Associates would not have any defense when FINRA comes knocking on his door.

Let’s hope that the Whittaker’s have a large Errors and Omissions insurance policy.

Has any of Mike Whitaker's clients gotten emails from Mike explaining, falsely, why he is or has not been acting as a fiduciary for them? I think he may be trying to ward off clients from filing complaints.
