@cmsinvests Love the grocery store grind. That is where I worked this summer to fill my Roth IRA. Thought it was a good job for being 18 at the time. Made just enough to max that sucker out last year as well!

Grind don’t stop i’m pushing for 600 now.

@JasonL_Capital @DollarCostAvg Telling/Recommending people to buy ATM Leaps is really not the greatest idea. If you buy leaps, it is much more sensible to buy 80 delta or higher, to minimize time value cost. Something like a 10, 12 or $15 strike is much more reasonable. Don't promote gambling please

This was a simple trade idea post. I did not expect it to blow up like it did.
With that being said, I never go all in on options or even make them a majority. I talk a lot about portfolio and risk management in my option ebook that I spent months creating.
I usually make an options position 10% of my equity position.

These are exactly post that will make retail poor. Don’t play options. This post just shows greed. What he does not mention is what if the price remains at 19.50, options will expire worthless and you won’t anything.
It’s always wise to buy Commons.

You could buy 100 shares of $SOFI right now for $1,715. Or you could buy the $20 call LEAP expiring January 2028 for $560. Same 100 shares of exposure. A fraction of the capital. Nearly two years of runway. The trade: Strike: $20 Expiration: January 21, 2028 Premium: ~$5.60 per contract Breakeven: $25.60 If $SOFI hits $35, this LEAP returns ~168% If $SOFI hits $40, this LEAP returns ~257% If $SOFI hits $50, this LEAP returns ~435% Buying 100 shares at $17.15 and watching it hit $50 is a 191% return. The LEAP more than doubles that. Why I like the setup: - $1B+ quarterly revenue - CEO bought $1M in stock on the open market - Banking, lending, investing, and crypto all under one roof - Stock is down significantly from highs - 672 days to expiration gives the thesis time to play out The most I can lose is the $560 premium. The upside is multiples of that. That's the power of LEAPs. NFA DYOR

@DevotedDividend Holding $QQQ n my Roth IRA for the next 40 years, that is when I turn 59.5. Hopefully those shares will 10x in value before then!
English
If you had to hold 1 for the next 50 years:
Which would it be?
English
@cmsinvests I prefer selling my own options with my $HOOD and $SOFI positions. Running covered strangles always collects premium, whether the stock is moving up or down.
English
Do you like selling your own options or do you let an ETF do it for you with something like $QQQI or $JEPI?
English
@DollarCostAvg I hope we regain the $20 price level sometime middle of this year, and hopefully push towards $25 over the rest of 26'. The multiples will continue to be cheaper over time, so it is bound to happen at some point!

Many people talk…very few actually put real money behind their convictions.
I’m all about the S&P. So much that I just made a $65k bet on it next week.
Sold a $649 $SPY cash secured put expiring Tuesday and got paid $500.
Here’s the breakdown:
If $SPY stays above $649
I keep the $500. Easy.
If it drops
I roll it out and down and collect more premium.
If it completely collapses and I get assigned $65k of $SPY
Good.
Because the S&P always wins long term. You’re betting on America.
Historically that $65k becomes about $169k in 10 years.
So what am I really doing?
Getting paid to wait
Getting paid to buy
Getting paid to own
Then I take that premium…buy more assets…and repeat.
Worst case?
I end up owning $65k of the biggest lock in the market.
That’s a bet I’ll make every single time.

@DarkMiner Love it! What distance? I run college XC and track, and eventually want to get into triathalon

@AIInvestorHQ Just a large accumulation phase. That's amazing as a long term investor

“Buy the dip” is great until you’ve been buying the dip for 25% of the year
Is anyone actually buying?

@CGInvesting10 Try selling 45 DTE and managing 21 DTE

My first $SOFI covered call just expired today!
Starting off this journey right with 100% profit
Planning on selling another CC next week

@WheelieInvestor How are they starting to take the lead?
English
Guys this whole beef between Public and Robinhood that we are seeing all over our timelines is because of me
They are fighting each other for my business
Public may be the underdog but they are starting to take the lead
Let’s settle this…
Which brokerage should I trade on?
English
@LEAPTRADER_ It's hard to calculate right now in my portfolio, but I think I'm getting at least 2% per month in premium. I'll have to work on tracking it more accurately
English
If your portfolio isn’t paying you at least $1k/month in cold-hard cash, you may be missing out.
✅ Selling puts = getting paid upfront to buy stocks cheaper later.
✅ Selling calls = getting paid upfront to sell stocks higher later.
This is the closest thing to printing money the market allows.
Master it before 2027 or watch everyone else collect your rent.
English
@vladtenev Vlad, Will Robinhood offer stablecoins like other brokerages and banks are starting to offer? Thank you for all that you do.
English
We must unleash the yield, safely.
We’re at a momentous turning point for our industry. If Congress passes the CLARITY Act, we finally get the regulatory certainty we've been advocating for.
So what’s the hold up? Deciding if customers should earn yield from their stablecoin holdings.
To get this right, we must prioritize what matters most for Americans: value and safety.
English
Portfolio Update:
Added another 0.5 shares of $HOOD just a minute ago. Almost 5% dip today, so though I would take a nibble with some cash I received earlier from a roll. Still have some premium left to use, but I want to pay down margin some more.
Hope many of you bought too!
English
@MoneyJrod Buying every dip I get my hands on!
English
Dear beginner investor,
Ignore the noise.
Stick to your plan.
This is the best time to be a long term investor
English
@SparkingFIRENC Yes. I had to ask my employer for one so I could go back to school for another year. Where I am now!
English
Have you ever asked your employer for an extended long term unpaid leave?

@Tim_Sweeney_TAR The recession has been a month away for the last 5 years....

ONLY WATCH ACTUAL DEFAULTS
The only relevant issue for any bank is actual defaults and how much they receive.
These arguments about hidden defaults and discount rates and fair values and now loan structures have been made for 5 years.
They keep saying that there are or will be massive defaults that are understated.
Most personal loans are 2 to 5 years. Well, it's been 5 years. Where are these projected massive defaults?
There's been tons of loans paid and termed out. None of this made up bs about all these issues has been accurate because they haven't resulted in material defaults. Defaults are down actually.
I guess if they say it enough and a nuclear bomb hits New York they can claim they were right
English
$SOFI We suspect if we are correct SOFI could be hiding $10 EPS this quarter. We have nothing to back this up and might make a trade if the stock pumps.

@DividendBreeder Love to see that. I hope that I can get close to $1000 per month after college graduation! I would increase this each year however, and my time horizon being longer than 10 years, I'm excited to see how the future works!
English
Unfortunately, investing $200/month isn’t nearly enough.
After 10 years following this plan, you’d only have $39,000.
Investing $1,000/month?
You’ll have $194,000 after 10 years.
This is assuming a 9% annual growth rate.
