If you trusted someone to manage your money only to find out 30 years later he/she had ultimately taken every penny you had and left you with nothing---it would be rather difficult for you to say "I blame myself for this", especially if this person was rather close to you.
Not even close to what we are discussing here, but if you waited 30 years to find out you were being cheated, that's indefensible also.
