Mrs. Smith does not exist.

There are no people who invest major amounts of money without

a) understanding the risks of investing major amounts of money

b) having major-major amounts of money and therefore losing major amounts of money is no big deal.

I've known grandmothers who play the stock market. They play it because it's fun and they can make money. They can also lose money. One thing they are not is ditzy and uninformed.

Ditzy, uninformed people go to Vegas.
