I was at the neurologist’s office recently getting some brain scans done. (Fun times!)
The sonogram tech asked me what I did for a living and I said retired. She told me she had a side business of financial consulting and she could help me out with my retirement goals. She offered to sell me some annuities that would yield 6-12%.
A lot of very colorful words passed through my mind, but I just simply declined and said my finances were already in order.
Just in case, though, I thought I would run this question by the group. Generally speaking, is it a good or bad idea for someone with mild brain damage to buy annuities from a sonogram technician?

was it the reverse commission & load w/0 redemption penalty type? very rare!
at least it wasn't DJT options.

It is inappropriate and unethical for a health professional or a practice/hospital employee to try and sell a patient any product during any visit.

Just can't help yourself, even on a Financial Board.

uh no.
any annuity, no matter the ripoff, is worth something, where DJT is not.
nothing to do with DJT price action. this is fundamental, not astrology.

You could offer to tell their employer that they are selling their side-business product during business hours WHILE working with a customer/patient!
