Laddering is normally a concept for people on a fixed income. So for example, if you were into Treasuries as you were in retirement years you might Buy a one year note in November, another in December, and so on through October then roll your November from last year into your November from next year. It's actually a neat setup for people who want to smooth out skews in the yield. I imagine it would be great for you and I if we had several million to trade with and we wanted to keep 60% of that to just spew off income to keep us afloat in case we speculated poorly in other endeavours.
