Depending on who’s asking D could be the right answer - refuses to answer.

Why have “refuse to answer”? If somebody doesn’t want to cooperate, just haul them away.

Count me as one of the stupid. I’d answer the third question “it all depends on which stock and which mutual fund.”

You might want to start with the percentage of Americans who can read the questions. Illiterates and non English speakers make up 20-25% of the population?
Next, how many of the remaining actually comprehend the question? Another 25%?
There is hope, most of the rest got the answer right.

It always baffled me that someone would take the time to take a survey and answer with some sort of “refuse to answer”.

It’s not wrong, but isn’t the answer they are asking for, either.
