I as a investor should be able to choose whichever stocks or funds I see fit. I research my investments and understand the risks. I do not believe passing a test before I invest is unfair and don not need anyone to hold my hand when coming to my portfolio.

Leveraged ETFs allow me to take a little more risk being offered by market returns. This is an important tool to allow me to earn a slightly higher return in a low risk manner (because I am buying the market) vs buying individual stocks.
Leveraged and inverse ETF are a great tool to invest for me. The volatility presents an opportunity for many investors. In fact it is individual stocks that are much, much more risky.
