Just like any other, Ed and Ruthann Wolfe is a couple just wanted a safe place where they can put their retirement funds to regenerate. After 32 years, their funds had reached $320,000 to have it all invested in a low-risk Fidelity mutual funds.

A couple of folks attended a seminar that was hosted by a broker. A buzz started clinging of how good the deal is and that it would be unwise not to go through with it.

Turning over a full $320,000 in retirement savings to the broker with instructions that the money be put in low-risk investment for safety reasons and that they would be needing o will be making withdrawals right away. The stock market was not of their concern at that time.

Then after sometime they started hearing of their acquaintances’ investments declining in value. Mrs. Wolf called the broker and shockingly found out that they had to stop making withdrawals or else they would go broke. The broker had invested their money in high-risk investments of tech companies and Internet and their retirement fund plunged to less than $100,000.
