To whom it may concern - I am violently opposed to any rule restricting access to investment products for the public. This is just another mechanism to make the rich richer, and steal money from the masses who are trying to build wealth through sophisticated avenues.

I should be allowed to invest freely into projects that I see financially beneficial and not be locked out of the real gains because of some ridiculous rule that states I'm not eligible because I don't have enough money.

I am opposed to the proposed rules adding restrictions on purchases of leveraged investment products for individual investors. Individual investors should have the ability to choose what strategies to utilize and the equities they purchase. Investing with leveraged and inverse ETFs provides me the ability to take advantage of market movement and sector activity without risk of concentrating into
Comments: To: FINRA,
I have been an active trader for many years using Leveraged and Inverse (L&I) Funds fairly successfully.
