It's not likely that your daughter is going to be applying for a
loan.

Actually, it's extremely likely that she'll apply for a loan. Not today, perhaps, but in 20 years!

Will the records for Charles' great-grandmother still be on file at that time? If so, there's a problem, isn't there?!

This type of date logic will work as a one-off means to convert the file from the old MMDDYY format to a true date field. But, it's not something you want to make a part of your ongoing business into the future.
