There is always a risk no matter what the investment, and there's no real difference between leveraged/inverse funds and
Im fully capable of making my own financial decisions without the need to be protected from myself by anyone ! Ive been successful all of my life without unsolicited advice.

I oppose your attempts to restrict my ability to chose my own investments. Publicly traded investments should be available to all of the public, not just a select privileged few and large institutions.
Leveraged funds and inverse funds are, if used correctly, be a powerful tool to add to a portfolio. I use them as a small portion of my investments. I understand and accept the risks involved
FINRA Committee: As a working class, Army veteran, society isn't the kindest when it comes to financial growth. Having the ability to invest in leveraged and inverse funds such as UltraPro and UltraPro Short ETF's; gives the average person the same opportunities as folks like yourselves seeking to restrict with arbitrary "poor people" laws.
