No, I have just played with some of the less risky issues. At the right time JDSU (like for the last couple of weeks) and QCOM (this time last year) would have been great. I just consider myself to have a very low risk tolerance.
Let me know what others you have found that have low monthly cost to own.
As an aside - I use naked puts to buy stock. Have to argue with some of the brokers - fools - about the trades.
I actually had a broker try to convince me that the risk was greater if I sold a $65 put on CSCO than it was to buy the stock at $72. What an idiot!
