4 - Financial Abuse - How to Spot a Potential Problem with Your Loved One's Assets
Certain seniors are targets for scams, and financial abuse disguised as a good deal or the right thing to do. Sometimes elderly family members make decisions based on what others have done, not knowing the details or specifics. For example, a woman age 89, knew that her son-in-law's father had a lot invested in Vanguard, and the bond fund had the highest ratings of safety. Her goal was preservation of capital and after talking to Vanguard they recommended the bond fund. She wasn't advised of market risk and volatility. Then she saw the shares starting to go down in value and transferred the funds to a money market account. This type of misunderstanding, or even worse - direct misrepresentation, happens more that we would want to imagine.
