****** I would not consider a "kid's" college fund to be risk capital.  The 
money used to speculate in futures should only be risk capital, money you can 
afford to lose.  Savings for college would not apply in my book.

opening yourself up to all kinds of litigation should the recommendation not 
work out to the client's satisfaction.  Litigation you would lose.

Transfer to Minors Act, which is how you would have to set up an account if 
the money was in the minor's name.

clear enough to express such nuances accurately.  Thus, I think your
