Trade thoughts today: Didn’t love watching $TSLA drop 12 points today with zero short calls on. Went for a solid 6-mile hike, came back to it green, and after my morning debrief with myself, I covered 20 lots before close. Going forward, I want to keep at least 20 covered calls on whenever $TSLA is over $350. The premium is worth it, and I have room to manage up to the mid-$400s without getting too aggressive. It keeps me patient, lets me hunt better setups, and most importantly, I never want to miss printing that consistent $10-20k/month in premium at these levels. Yeah, it caps some upside… but I’ve got other shares for that. This is how I pay the bills while staying retired. Below are the 20 short calls opened.

Wife= enjoying the views Me= $tsla selling off another 10 points again… I want to add 100 shares. Maybe wait until 350….

Interesting how it works Elon puts up his own money, rounds up the absolute best AI talent on the planet, leverages every connection he has to secure serious resources, and launches OpenAI in 2015 as a pure non-profit explicitly created to develop AI for the benefit of humanity, with zero profit motive and open research Then the “team” decides they want the bag They push Elon out, take control, and quietly flip the entire thing into a for-profit machine All while preaching the same sanctimonious lines on repeat: “We’re still mission-driven!” “AI for the good of humanity!” “We’d never abandon our principles!” The ultimate betrayal: Elon got zero equity. Not a single share. He funded it. He built the foundation. He got nothing while they turned his non-profit into their personal cash cow This is the level of betrayal and hypocrisy we’re dealing with And for the record.... this lawsuit doesn’t put a single penny in Elon’s pocket. Any win goes straight back to the non-profit to restore the exact mission he founded

New trade: $tsll. Ira and HSA Locked in profits here with a stop. Heading out for a 2 hour hike. No service. Paid for ribeye today at least

Do not quit your day job to become a content creator. It is very difficult and there are many risks. Only a few people will succeed. Let me tell you my story. I started making videos successfully in 2019. Mostly about Tesla and SpaceX and other tech topics. At my peak, I made $8500 in one month. I got into the Tesla space early and I was successful for a while. Eventually others flooded in. There are probably 10 times as many content creators in the Tesla space as there were when I started. The audience is not much bigger than it was. Stephen Mark Ryan is a great example. We have very similar views. He’s better than me at this and he works harder. I thought about copying what he was doing, but realized I needed to be myself. I’ve seen many content creators come and go in the Tesla space and related topics. Tesla Economist is a great example. He copied Steven. But he didn’t understand. He was chasing algorithms and he caught STEDs. There are so many ways that you can fail: Competition Demonetization Censorship Losing touch Burn out STEDs I didn’t have a day job to quit. I never tried very hard to make money or to grow my channel as much as others do. Tesla’s success made me financially independent. I create content about what I’m excited about. This is key to avoiding burnout. Chasing algorithms is a fool’s errand. If you’re looking for a way of being productive in today’s world, dig into AI and start building something meaningful. Let’s be careful out there.
