Options: Looks like a big premium to me when you also factor in the spread. I like to figure margin costs for an equivalent amount of common and compare those costs to the spread. That gives me a better idea which way to go with a stock that has both earnings and prospects to provide a measure of downside risk. In this case I'd opt for the common as both a money-saver and a money-maker.
