I became involved in managing my own portfolio as a college student. While I may not be a finance major, as an investor I have had a net benefit to have free access to a variety of financial instruments. Yes, some are "complex" such as inverse funds, but that does not mean that this area of investing needs regulation. It is up to individuals to exercise their best judgement.

Dear Finra,
I became involved in managing my own portfolio as a college student. While I may not be a finance major, as an investor I have had a net benefit to have free access to a variety of financial instruments. Yes, some are "complex" such as inverse funds, but that does not mean that this area of investing needs regulation. It is up to individuals to exercise their best judgement.
