If the younger, adult brother gives permission to invest his money, or if you are a guardian over your younger brother's money and wish to grow it, and the invested money is lost without any transgression or negligence on your part, then you are not liable to guarantee it. This is because you are entrusted, and a trustee is not liable unless there is transgression or negligence.
