I don't see anything more American than freedom to invest our hard-earned funds how we please. We deserve the choice to make ourselves without being steered into what others determine as best for us. Limiting our choices is absolutely unacceptable in this regard, especially with respect with warnings and advisories that brokers already provide to individual investors. Providing education is the correct answer - not limitations.

A person needs a chance to invest. The banks "savings" accounts are laughable. And if you put your money in a bank to "grow" they want you to pay an "inactive fee" which is more that you can earn in interest. The cards are stacked against the poorest investors.

Having worked in the Financial World for 28 years - what i have learned is that we tend to make rules to benefit us and rich. There are times when the average person can invest and play in the real world. Please let people compete, education is the key not over-regulation

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public.
I am knowledgably & understand leveraged and inverse funds and their risks.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies.

Do not limit my investment abilities

I'm blessed to have been able to invest in many of the investments at risk of being able to invest in complex securities. This year with the public stock markets in a bear market my investments in interval funds, non-traded REITS, volatility linked ETFs and hedge funds have offset the risk of owning stocks. Limiting these investments further by imposing test requirements, net worth requirements and other restrictions will hurt most investors.

It would be detrimental for the investors to limit their access to leveraged funds. Most investors know the risk of these funds and brokerages are doing a good job of making sure that investors know the risk before they invest in these ETFs. Putting limitations on who can and cannot trade these funds would only help the few.

Please stop trying to make money on EVERY single thing in our lives

I know where I want to invest, how, how much, etc. I don't need government telling me what I can or cannot do.

Don't need this interference .
