yikes / incredible. i remember last time i watched cable news during the 2020 primaries, all the ads were like "get cash now for your annuity/structured settlement" and like "medicare approved" old people scooters. commercials targeting comfortable retirees have got to be the most profitable. these people have minimal critical analysis skills and when the delivery man comes, it's probably the highlight of their day. back in the 90s, my grandparents were up to their eyeballs in debt from subscribing to all manner of dumb shit and collecting all the weird franklin mint collectibles. basically, if there was a commercial on TV with an 800 number, they called it.
of course, all the promotional materials for these things always act like the typical client is some 30-40 year old physically active and mentally sharp person, and not some 75 year old shut in who hasn't bathed in 4 days.
