<p>[QUOTE=&quot;CamaroDMD, post: 1666590, member: 5233&quot;]I don&#039;t assume that about my patients.&nbsp; But, I see a lot of patients between 60-70 and the VAST majority of them are capable of making an informed decision.&nbsp; The fact that this person acted out of fear and tried to convert her money into silver without doing research in itself is not proof that she is disabled in anyway.&nbsp; It only shows that she doesn&#039;t possess the knowledge of the value of silver.&nbsp; I don&#039;t believe this alone would hold up in court as evidence to her being disabled.&nbsp; Now, perhaps the OP is withholding this information for privacy reasons or he doesn&#039;t know.&nbsp; Perhaps she is disabled in some way which totally changes the situation...but until otherwise told my someone with knowledge...we can&#039;t assume that.</p><p><br /></p><p>I said it before and I will say it again.&nbsp; All things aside...it doesn&#039;t matter if this person is 25 or 65.&nbsp; The dealer knew the spot value of silver...and therefore knew that the premium he was asking was outrageous.&nbsp; IMHO, if someone was willing to pay such a premium...it is evidence that they did not know the value of what they were purchasing (it is not evidence of a mental handicap).&nbsp; I believe by selling the silver at that price, the dealer acted immorally.&nbsp; However, based on what we KNOW (not what we ASSUME)...I don&#039;t see any violation of the law here.&nbsp; It&#039;s sad and wrong...but I don&#039;t believe it&#039;s illegal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
