Re: retired income

Jaytee,

My mother had GE shares from when my father retired. She kept them in a drawer as her security (just in case of whatever). However, she needed more cash flow. I put the shares in an account for her, and I use the margin it provides to conservatively trade options. She now gets $1K/month in extra needed cash and can check the statement each month to see that the GE shares are still there. I don't trade against them because she doesn't want them to be taken away.

Just an idea to consider for your in-laws. Good luck.

Tom
