I disagree - he said "lose ALL your money", not "lose your money".

I recall a post from D.Martini in which he suggested you should never sell a put on a company if you don't want to buy the stock. Right now I have sold puts on Dell and EMC and wouldn't mind owning either one or both. Of course I'd rather not pay more than market value for either, but anytime you buy a stock there is no guarantees.

Freeus:

You are getting real good at this naked puts. Some people hold the options until expiry while they can close the position with decent gains. Waiting for that last dollars is what caused many people lose big.

best wishes
