Please don't allow this to happen

I believe that my family and I should have the ability to invest in leveraged and inverse funds without government regulators making that decision for us. We understand the risks inherent with these types of funds and we use them as a portion of our portfolio of investments to hedge against market drops. There is no reason anyone should have to go through a special process, like passing a test, to choose these types of investments. Please dont impose regulatory measure like these on the public as these public investments should be available to ALL the public.

While I appreciate FINRAs attempt to protect investors from the Martha Stewarts and Michael Millikans of the world I would remind you I am an adult. I made the money and I chose to invest it how I want and I am offended that an institution of regulation would choose to shackle the people its meant to serve to financial servitude of large institutions and limit our freedom of choice to a pre approved set of funds.
This rule is financial bigotry and FINRA should be ashamed that it was even proposed.

Less US government involvement
in the private sector, including investments.

This is a Free Country and you have no right to tell us when and how to invest !!

My investments are my business not the governments.

To whom it may concern. My broker already issues a warning on leveraged trades. Most people realize what they are putting their investment into. Restricting trades hurts the average investor. This in my opinion is an overreach and not needed.
Thank you.

Don't want you to limit my ability to invest freely.It should be my choice and no one else.

This regulation if enacted would unfairly disadvantage the average investor. Do not impose burdensome regulations at the expense of the average person.

America is a free country. FINRA has no right to protect competent adults from the consequences of their own choices. There should be no special test for investors, and the general test should be nothing but "caveat emptor."
