I dont seem to understand leverage

Okay just as @Wekesa has stated , then there is a high possibility to which one can get some good money with leverage, how ever there is a huge down fall to it, you can actually even lose more to it the more you risk the more you have the possibility of losing it all, if you look at how this kind leverage works, it depends on what we have, if I have 50 dollars and use a leverage of 1:25, then for every one dollar , I can get about 25 worth of margin, which means with 50 I get 1250$ worth of margin, but when things get rough , you lose more and when you gain you gain more so its either way you can win or even lose more, thats the case.
