Bill, what am I missing??

<< In fact, selling naked puts might make a lot of sense if
you believe in the long term... you could pick up some
REALLY cheap stock next week.

Of course the questions is, what is cheap? Boeing at 30
may STILL be expensive if you can pick it up in a month
at 15!!! >>

This is a real loser of an idea. If you sell puts you buy
at today's price (minus the put premium you captured). But
you can buy at half price next month.

If you sell the put next month and the stock rallies, then
you can capture the premium but you won't have the stock.
