What Does This Mean?

Less than scrupulous securities brokers may often target more vulnerable individuals when perpetrating their financial misdeeds. This includes the elderly population. These individuals often rely heavily on their securities broker to handle their accounts in a fashion suitable for them. Securities brokers like Christopher Miller may take advantage of this trust and use the opportunity to manage their elderly client's account in a way that is beneficial to them (the broker) but detrimental to the customer. This is also known as financial elder abuse and is a real problem for many investors.
