Investment restrictions on leveraged products should not have significant restrictions. A simple age-based (e.g. 25 0r 30 years old) and/or small investable assets requirement (e.g. $25,000) along with attesting to reading a warning statement regarding possible losses should be the MAXIMUM restriction.
