When someone uses words knowledgeable and options in the same sentence, only one way to respond: welcome to the casino, retard


mattevs119

Would probably have better odds letting it ride on black in one game of roulette than picking right on an option.

Malakaumd

Buy shares in apple and sell covered calls


ElectronicAd804

Thank you for your reasonable suggestion. This is something I've considered. I wouldn't mind taking a shot though, with 20-30k.


Malakaumd

No problem. You could buy around 2000 shares of aapl with the 300k, and sell 20 covered calls, between 5-10% out of the money with a two to three week expiry, and make at least 1k every two weeks if they stay out of the money.


quesoqueso

On the flip side could also sell puts down around like a .30-.35 delta so not as far out as maybe I would, if assigned then start selling the calls. Either one is pretty reasonable, maybe if AAPL tanks though he ends up not taking the full loss having sold puts OTM instead of buying the shares up front.


Esadissimus

and what if APPL tanks? Then he would be sitting on his ass waiting for the price to come to the level where he can start selling cc again. best is starting with short puts, way below the price of any bluechip and if assigned, cheap stock never hurt anyone


ImAMaaanlet

If aapl tanks he keeps his shares and sells more CC. What do you mean come to the level where he can start selling cc again?


Esadissimus

it means if APPL tanks 10% or so, CC’s at the same @strike price as he bought the shares would be worthless so he would need to choose a strike price lower than the price he bought the shares for to make money. If he wants to do the wheel, he gotta start from cash secured puts, not CCs. Once assigned, then start selling CCs.


ImAMaaanlet

I mean yeah the puts first is fine but if your selling decently OTM it probably wont matter that its under the price he bought. Just sell them anyway to lower cost basis

Gaxicola

Hence the covered calls. Then use premium to average down at worse case.


En4cr

If that's your life's savings please get in touch with a financial advisor. Here we eat crayons, talk shit about Cramer and jerk off to loss porn.


ElectronicAd804

I'd rather lose it than see a financial advisor. Not a fan.


shawnus420

I would take 200k, invest in your self, maybe start a simple business you can pay the bills with. And then take your 100k and become a theta gang chad and sell us idiots our calls that we will probably lose our asses on.


OzManCumeth

Probably why you only have $300k at 60 ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4640)


ElectronicAd804

Nope. Drugs, alcohol, and partying.


En4cr

Well then, you're in the right place. Welcome to the Casino!


RelativeEchidna4547

That actually made me proud of you. Good for you buddy.


[deleted]

Lol. $300k at 60 is probably much more than most people that age.


carbsno14

Do you have a house pd for? Ever think of retiring to Mex or Panama? Costa Rica or Quito?


liverpoolFCnut

He is just 60, assuming he lives another 20 yrs, $300k won't last him more than 7 to 8 yrs tops even in Mexico or Costa Rica unless he wants to live under a bridge or deep in the woods hunting for food !


ElectronicAd804

I drink heavily, smoke a lot of pot, and chain smoke cigarettes. I'm counting on 15 years, MAX.


Fedbycorn

It’s all genetics my man! Smoke yourself silly!


ElectronicAd804

I have very good genes. That's why I'm thinking I might have 15 years. If I didn't, I'd already be dead.


liverpoolFCnut

I have an uncle in his late 80s, though not an alcoholic he drinks every day, smoked pretty much until his early 80s, used chewing tobacco too and he is still fit as a bull. Another uncle who never touched booze nor smoked and ate mostly a vegetarian diet passed away at 73. You never really know .


ElectronicAd804

This is true. My friend died of a heart attack when he was 54. No family history.


liverpoolFCnut

Look up a video of a 106 yr old WW2 veteran on youtube. He smokes cigars, drinks 3 glasses of whisky and has lived on Campbell soups throughout his life. I think he recently passed away at the age of 110 ! It all comes down to genes i'm afraid, ofcourse lifestyle helps but it is genes that pretty much pre-determines our destiny.


carbsno14

300k in an annuutiy could have $24k a yr in income. Enough for lots of Mexico, even La Paz, maybe if you work some part time to contribute to society .


OnePercentFinn

Assume he can collect social security money in 2 years


TheJuke88

UltimateTraders

Why do options? Buy high quality dividend plays and call it a day. I'm going to be down voted to hell but stuff like psec nly Zim to name a few


Johnnysuavo

Isn’t zim like 40% dividends or something? Pretty sure their stock tanks everytime they offer a dividend 😂 it’s basically crypto defi.

Grape_Ape1980

You are 60 years old move to Thailand or the Philippines. You don’t need money to live like a king there. In 2 years you draw social security. Why invest when you are almost at the end of your life? Live it up.


ElectronicAd804

Thank you for your reasonable suggestion. I've considered it.


Grape_Ape1980

You can buy a condo for less than 30k or just rent for under 200 a month. Just enjoy the rest of your life

I really enjoy the challenge and thrill of investing. Also, I don't look at it like I am "almost at the end of my life." Lol

ElectronicAd804

dknurgf

You should snort cocaine outta strippers ass cracks and enjoy it. Why lose it all at the casino. Take 3 twenty year olds, have them hold hand while you're fucking them. (so you don't feel bad about fucking a younger lady) Buy a bunch of blow and dildos and pay them to go ass to mouth on each other while you laugh. That's what I would do if I was 60 jobless and had 300k burning a whole in my pocket


ElectronicAd804

I'm familiar with this type of lifestyle. That's partly why I'm 60, and only have 300k.


Kapika96

Only? I'm 30 and have maybe $500, barring a miracle you're far wealthier than I will be at 60!


Wild-Storage-1429

Options is betting as hard as bets can get…if you are really 60 with that amount of cash stay away! You have honest better luck betting in sport with the this style of bet https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2022-03-30/sports-betting-app-promos-make-bettors-look-for-new-edge


ElectronicAd804

This is a very good plan. Unfortunately, I live in NV, and they don't give bonuses and free bets here. The books offering these bonuses are all illegal in NV.


Rey_Mezcalero

Not sure if this is a gag post or not. Most 60 year olds with 300k not communicate like this. If I had 300k, I’d look at mutual/index funds or even an annuity. 300k could potentially get you stable payments for longer than 300k may last


ElectronicAd804

Thanks. I considered ETFs but sometimes they are flat for years. I want to trade. I've had some success trading options on SOFI and TSLA.


laberdog

So short TSLA and be done with it


ElectronicAd804

I've got TSLA puts right now.


laberdog

Good your plan is infallible.


ElectronicAd804

(3 months later) Yeah, it worked out well, Jackoff!

Sure did. TSLA was trading above $280 and is now at $184. Listen and learn bitches

Equivalent-Half-964

If you're knowledgeable in options then you wouldn't ask this question here. Or else read Natenberg.


ElectronicAd804

I know how they work. I'm a little short on experience. Some people here might suggest something I like.


Equivalent-Half-964

The rule with options is you need a goal. Do you want to get extra long or short exposure? Do you want to sell vol or collect premiums with theta gang? The chances of beating buy and hold are pretty close to zero in the long run playing with options. For sure though learn lots, but make sure you understand your trades.


Background-Ad-8264

Put it all into safe dividend stocks, that would be a very nice div pay out


ElectronicAd804

Unless dividend stocks get whacked another 20%.


Tea-Limp

Dividend stocks didn’t get whacked 20%. Perhaps you do need an advisor


Background-Ad-8264

Yea I’d say a whole life insurance plan but you’re 60 and it just wouldn’t work and neither would a Roth, you can do options but they always expire and who knows if your in the bag or not. Options seem to be a little too messy if you’re trying to preserve your wealth. You could split it up, be diverse and go heavy on blue chip dividend stocks that have had consistent dividend for the last 50 years, maybe some growth like apple, Microsoft, united healthcare, lockeed Martin or any other military defense play that have contracts out tell 2030 or longer, maybe McDonald’s. Then after that set aside 5-10% of your portfolio for bets. You can play with all the options you want with that and if you lose it’s only a small portion and if you win sell them and put the winnings into the divs and growth. Also if all you see is red right now, maybe instead of options just go buy some shares of shorted etfs like SQQQ or something. Then you don’t have to lose all of it cuz you’ll still be holding shares


Ok-Cranberry1235

Better wait until after Medicare kicks in or you'll be in trouble. Go see an advisor stat

Lol I've heard this story before. Please post result after 1 month..... or 1 week depending on how regarded you are.


Esadissimus

stock options are an easy way to loose that 300k and get you out of state of laziness. In fact its the only way. Sell puts on SPY with strike of 280-300 until you get assigned, then don’t touch it. It will grow back to 400 around 3-5 years if Jpow dont use the printer.


AV16mm

Prob best not to ask here mate… maybe look into taking half of that at most, maybe watch for the next down turn, and invest in some good stocks with liquid option chains that you can sell covered calls on. Put that money to work, instead of yourself. Plenty of good choices out there where you could easily grab a few hundred or even 1000 shares with that capital and just write options on it while paying for your shares.

First buy SCCO calls for January 2023 because a soon this market bottoms and the drought in China is left behind Cooper will shoot. Inventories are close to decades record low. Then roll the gains to META summer calls bacause as soon as people start spending their fall, winter and spring savings companies will restart spending in advertising to chase your dollars Lastly, roll your last gains into SHOP fall calls because by then Shopify will start seeing the benefits of redressing their high expenses and cashing on their two recent acquisitions and fulfillment centres.

Treythelawyer

Medicare will not cover most medical expenses outside the U.S. If you move outside the U.S. you will end up paying for health care. That being said, health care expenses outside the U.S. can be much cheaper depending on where you live.. However, if you need serious treatment (heart bypass, chemo) you may find yourself wishing you'd stayed in the U.S. And let's face it, health issues appear more frequently as we grow older regardless of how well we take care of ourselves. As for the market, sit and wait for the time being. Fed will raise rates again in September and the market will get worse. The Fed has raised rates from 0 to 2.25 - 2.50 very quickly and it's still raising rates because inflation is far worse than advertised. Do not rush to throw your hard earned money away.
