I saw this article
linked on reddit recently, it looks like it is getting

I think this takes the Fed Chairs words
slightly out of context. After all, unsophisticated has a technical

A sophisticated investor or accredited investor is defined by the
SEC as the following:
An accredited investor, in the context of a natural person,
includes anyone who:
earned income that exceeded $200,000 (or $300,000
together with a spouse) in each of the prior two years,
and reasonably expects the same for the
current year, OR
has a net worth over $1 million, either alone or
together with a spouse (excluding the value of the
person’s primary residence).
It isn’t necessarily a term to
belittle people, it's just a statement of fact.
