I strongly believe in the importance of all Americans to guide their own financial decisions, to pursue their investment goals without interference. I am many things: an attorney, a wife, an investor, a mom to be, a video game developer... But under these varied hats, a regular American. Investing in leveraged and inverse funds carries risks, but risk is how Americans built this country through
I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged like hedge fund institutions. I understand a financial risk with these funds and know the consequences of covering the losses. You should not be the judge of imposing conditional regulations on each individual investors. When
More government regulations not needed!!
I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST.
Stop being big brother. I am happy to take a test demonstrating my knowledge of the product and risks I am exposing myself to. We have no access to private equity and other investment vehicles that have performed in the past. Why cant you give us access to the same opportunities wealthier people have?

I feel this rule would only serve to further divide the wealth gap that already exists in this counrtry, as it would make it more difficult for investors such as myself, with a lower net worth, to take advantage of leveraged funds in order to enhance capital gains.

The additional rules proposed by FINRA does not protect the public as whole, rather only protects a small few that wants additional control on the free market. We are currently able to trade knowing the risks and rewards - the people do not need high net worth, special classes / tests, or additional government regulations imposed on us.
