Glenn,

One more question. Since you are obviously an experienced investor, have you ever made use of this option or do you typically stay away from this sort of leverage?

I realize leverage is danagerous but there are rare times where it would be very useful if one was very confident about a stock move. I would be interested in your opinion on this, particularly if you think this is a good option instead of buying options on an equity. (In the case I am considering, the spread on the puts and calls is about 15% - 25% at times.)

Thanks again for all your help.
