Being almostblind I take a gamble every time I cross the street. Gambling, spekulating or investing are cousins and the difference is at times very small. In investing we all are trying to make money by taking calculated risks. Using my system is a way of taking a minimum of risk with a possiblility of a maximum of gain. It is mandatory however that you have the necessary liquidity to pay for the stocks you might have to take in if the stock price falls below the strike. But if all goes well - and there you need a close study of the pros and cons - your gain is infinite % gain, bbecauuse you did not pay a penney for the calls which ware paid through the proceeds of the put. And my friend this is very shrood operating. But you have to know what you are doing. And with 76 years I do no longer need life insurance. Bat again or thanks for your thoughts which are well taken. Fred

I saw you over on that thread where the players have been put under arrest. Do you still trade options? Anyone who can withstand the options market for a number of years either has a lot of cash to burn or has become proficient in outwitting the crooks in Chicago ;-) I am traversing the highways of Silicon Investor looking for those that have a rep of being long term players that have withstood the ups and downs and turnarounds of the market and life. Are you such a player? cineseoul.com
