C) The father of her children has established trust funds for each of them in the amount of $50,000 each. <u>⇒ if this is true, then she should be happy with her current portfolio since equities carry a higher risk but can also yield much higher returns. She should be OK with the high risk because her children will be covered by the trust fund. </u>
D) She will be remarrying a person of considerable wealth next month. <u>⇒ if this is true, then she should be happy with her current portfolio since equities carry a higher risk but can also yield much higher returns. She should be OK with the high risk because she will marry a wealthy man, so the risk shouldn't be a a problem. </u>
