Well, she did knew the risk. Unless she was an idiot to boot, well tough luck.

I see people throw around the idea that old people should not be held accountable for their actions a lot. It's frankly ridiculous. You're acting like grown adults don't have any agency. Most of these old ladies who lose their money are dumbass housewives who just inherited their dead husband's life savings. They don't deserve to own that money, because they are retarded and expect the world to cater to them just because they're pathetic old women. They'd be better off dead.

This. If they're so old they should have a tight reign on their finances from experience or if their mind is gone they should have someone taking care of them/their finances for them. They're always bitches about feigning incompetence too.
