A very conservative approach to double quickly would be selling CSCO puts at current levels....and waiting for 6 months ! if you trade them, you could do better ? I guess 35K is difficult, 50K is more do-able... I agree with the risky bit. And I concede that it should be attempted only with the money one can afford to let go......but 2-3 years is the other extreme in the bull markets full of opportunities ! Even CSCO/DELL/MSFT almost double in one year...!
