"In other words, if you plan carefully, and be patiently enough, to me play{ing} {the} VSE is much better than that Options Market, the option market you are bound to lose time value, but not majority of VSE."

Excuse me, more people win on the option market than they loose{well not really}. on average 50% are winner, 50% are loosers. This is the nature of options. Someone MUST take the oposite of your purchase or sale. No capital is built. Now if you were to buy a call option, you have a good chance to be profitable if:
You buy a positive delta option... unlike the vast majority of options loosers who buy a delta negative options. BUT most option players, similar to those whom invest in junior mining stocks, DON'T know when to sell.
