WoW! Last I understood, capitalism and the right to individually flourish in the U.S.A. was available to everyone. My mother came here legally for this reason, and so I can benefit from my own efforts here as well. If my funds disappear due to my lack understanding or misjudgment, THAT is my decision to make and no one else's. This proposed rule is highly elitist. Public trading should be
These investment options are critical to managing portfolio risk for many individuals. They should be available to all, and not just the elite.

I should not have to go through any special process, like passing a test, before I can invest in public securities. I am 100% capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds, as well as the risks that come with investing in them. I do not need a regulator

FINRA -should not limit my choose to invest in leveraged and inverse funds. With inverse funds I can still manage to potentially make gains in an IRA account as I cant short in this type of account.
