THERE'S A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH INVESTORS THAT HAVE A DAY JOB
You work a day job & trade time for money.
Nothing wrong with that starting out.
The harder you work, the more you make.
Pretty obvious.
Now, the problem that 95%+ make...
Most retail investors correlate more trades & more action to more money made in the stock market.
The more you stare at your screen & "make plays" the "harder you are working" thus your returns will likely be way more... right?
NO!
Couldn't be further from the truth.
Why?
Well instead of typing a huge explanation, let me just leave you with a fact that ends it right here.
95%+ of investors do not beat the returns of the S&P500 in the long term. They don't, and you likely won't.
It's just the facts...
Think about how much "work" it takes to dollar cost average in every paycheck to something like $VOO (SP500 ETF)
It's zero work!
Yet you beat most retail investors...
The point was to prove more trades does not equal more money for the VAST majority of people.
I make on average 4 trades a month.
& I CRUSH what the SP500 does.
HERE'S WHAT I DO:
Base portfolio.
Portfolio secured sold puts (not cash secured).
LEAP calls when it makes sense.
1+ year expiration dates on options.
Buy good companies at good prices.
Capitalize on volatility.
Be patient.
I dropped a batch of some banger YouTube videos explaining this stuff.
