I am perfectly capable of assessing the risk of investment options, choosing which investments to include in my 401K, and accepting the financial consequences - beneficial or detrimental - of my investment decisions.

I do not believe I should lose my investment opportunities based on my privilege within the market, and financially. My overall opportunities as an investor and financially will become limited which I find unfair to myself as an investor.
I am an adult, and can accept the responsibilities of my investing decisions. I don't need a regulator to tell me how to invest my personal finances. The lottery is perfectly legal and ran by governments as a tax on the poor.
