But that imbalance has nothing to do with age a 25 years old person could have a lot more money than a 35 years old person and make the older person dependend on the younger person
Context matters.
25, they’re either still in college or just getting into building their career.
35, there established and stable
Could it be predatory? Absolutely. Particularly if the 35yo is the one paying bills and the 25yo is financially dependent.
That said, no one who is in a coma for 10 years is going to be waking up the same as they were when they went into the coma. They’re going to be different persons, and they’re going to be having ridiculous amounts of medical bills. Suffice it to say that the coma-person might be the victim here, too.

except- as I’ve already noted- that a 35 yo person is more likely to have an established career and financial stability in a way I wouldn’t expect a 25 year old.
again, context matters, but whether you want to admit it or not, the age gap is straddling major life milestones.

Some people are married with children and in stable careers by 25
