Re;"we can set aside 5K in LEAPs and gain in our investment 50K a year"
If it was that easy everyone would be doing it. LEAPS do not always appreciate. They can be quite a gamble.
Take for example the COMS Strike $50 Jan '98 LEAP. Early this year I bought it at $.75, in July I sold it at $14, today I notice it is down to $.50. I was just lucky I bailed in time.
I have followed LEAPS for many years and it is not the candy store you imply.
