It's whack a mole. Covered call spruikers keep popping us with the same farking BS...

My FaceAche feed is being spammed with the latest iteration of the "earn 3-4-5-WHATEVER% per month"

Time for another thread on this topic, especially as we seem to have some well educated optionistas here now.

You won't mind if I borrow the profit graphs from here then?

It's just that I'm not very good at drawing them and they should be nearly the same.

OK

How many % per month is your offer? I have to do my cost benefit analysis :D

The FaceAche guy is offering 3% per month for $10k.... reduced to $4995 if I get in quick. :p:

At the moment I can get you 300-400% returns over 6 months*

I was going to charge a special rate of $6k for the first 100 takers, but since you're a mate, I'm willing to offer you a VIP ticket at the bargain basement wholesale discount price of only $10,995 in two easy to pay instalments.(Please don't tell anyone else though - I don't want them to think that I'm getting soft!)

*contingent on the DAX not dropping below it's current all time record high prior to September expiry

Where? Where?
 
Seriously folks....

Ever since I've been back to sweating for a living, I've been using covered calls over my bottom drawer stuff as an "extract some cash from the blinkin' dogs" strategy.

Good for a few percent per year... a bit more if I'm in the zone.

But 3% (or more) cash per month? => awnker.gif

Does your bottom's drawers get called away often?

(Whilst I'm sure that those horsey clients of yours keep you fit, I'd still hate to see you naked!)

Apocalypse Never! I draw first.

Don't want a capital gains tax event so take the loss on the short call before my counterparty's financial imperative kicks in.

It happens...... 'cept when I'm in the zone. ;)
