No blame game, no justification - simply get on with awakening them. Unfortunately its like pushing shit uphill.

Understand, they believe the government will look after them and their assets are safe. They're the generation that doesn't talk sex, money and politics.

A recent widow talked about her will. Two kids have fleeced her. Asked what she wants to do. She's sold her remaining real estate and has turned it into gold jewelry for her last child, who lives abroad. No lawyers involved.

Bitcoin is beyond her. Gold bullion means third party custody.

I just listened - while she worked through the stock market, bond market, REIT market - and realized those were beyond her understanding too . She understands gold jewelry .

The upside to this - at least she wasn't buying Blackrock ETF's, which unfortunately my sister believes in.
