{What retired senior who worries about $250 would buy $100,000 worth of QQQ ?]

A poorly advised senior who should have been in CDs.

An elderly person that had hoped to earn $800 to $1000 a month off of their $100,000 life savings would be very concerned by the loss of $250.

Still, I am not talking about losing $250 but losing $10,000 on the 10% pop in the QQQ. Nearly a years income.

So you don't believe that there are elderly assuming way to much risk with their life savings?
