>> Every time I write puts and the stock goes crazy on the upside, I sigh and think about all the money I'm missing from not owning the stock (that I thought was a good value, else I would not have written the puts).

I had no feelings of regret because I already owned the stock, so I profit by keeping the premium and by having the value of my core holdings increase. In that sense, it's an easier play than covered calls, where the value of my core holding is capped.
