Herman wants to present a persuasive speech to his high school classmates to convince them that it is never too early to begin saving for retirement. Given what you know about the influence of the demographic factors of age and knowledge/experience, is this a wise selection of subject?
What will be an ideal response?
No. While the subject may be important, a young audience probably sees retirement as a
remote concern. Additionally, since it will not be a subject about which students have a great
deal of knowledge/experience, the audience will likely be difficult to reach. Given the probable
lack of experience with the topic, the advocate may have a credibility problem
