I agree. I haven't been able to get my dad to do this yet. I have been doing options for more than 20 years. He doesn't like the idea of givng up the upside potential. If he had done what I did in my IRA with Q, it would be eating him up alive. It's pure greed that prevents people from doing this (and not knowing). But, remember, this doesn't work in a prolonged downtrend in the market (something we haven't seen in a decade).
