Why shouldn't "millennials" be allowed to trade derivatives just like anyone else?

Good point. Generally, most people should not be trading derivatives.

I was pointing out millenials in particular because it's the population targeted by those startups, whose business models is more or less implicitly: millenials have no clue about money and finance. Which is true, but also unethical.

Older millennials are approaching 40. The majority of hacker news members are probably millennials
