No different then people rushed into brokerage houses in 99/2000, if you were not making 15-20% a year the adviser or broker was a loser.

The bank provides a service to it's customers, that does not mean the customers can have whatever they want just because. The lady and the son don't like it they can move the account to another bank that will accommodate them, but I suspect as other have said there is a lot more to this story then the fear mongering article itself states.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
