Yea, unless you're developing jointly with banks, with lots of oversight and liability insurance, this is a disaster waiting to happen.



It wouldn't surprise me if it wouldn't stand up in court either. Short of having a huge banner that says "WE WON'T ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY LOSSES IF YOU USE ARE SERVICES, TYPE 'I AGREE' TO CONTINUE" I imagine someone could probably claim that the risks weren't sufficiently highlighted.

There's a reason every investment-related advert has to state that "The value of your investment may go down as well as up", etc.
