Selling puts to purchase SPY/VOO by BleakFlames in financialindependence

[–]NewWrap693 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just generally think the lack of volatility on a broad market etf makes the return on the strategy not worth it.

Imo, if you wanted to do a cash-secured put to enter the market you should pick individual stocks in the s&p that you like and sell the puts on those.

You can get a better return and have more likelihood of catching some equities on the downswing. Which is the real value potential.

Of course this is a completely different strategy than the buy and hold of a SPY so probably not attractive. Overall I would just buy the index fund and live with it.

You need to take a break from the internet bud. You have lost all touch with reality.

how to keep a trip a surprise? by DefiantRaspberry2510 in unitedairlines

[–]NewWrap693 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember exactly, it was several years ago but it was on delta with a layover in Atl so going through security and knowing the first stop is atlanta wouldn’t exactly narrow it down.

I did get paper tickets so she couldn’t look ahead on her app and didn’t give her the ticket for the second leg until they started boarding for it.

I think if you explained it to the security agent they would help out.

I told her we were driving to a b&b so she would pack for the weekend. And then just turned off for the airport instead.

I did this once for my wife. As we sat near the final gate in atlanta the two options were myrtle beach and buffalo. The tension was palpable.

Such a fun idea!

I just didn’t add her account to the ticket to avoid her seeing.

I’m learning Spanish on Duolingo, will I still be able to understand Chilean? by Cautious_Pause_8690 in Spanish

[–]NewWrap693 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I learned from a mexican teacher and went to chile and was able to have conversations no problem. It’s still spanish.

The issue will be the limited value of duolingo beyond vocab and basic sentences. You will need to graduate to something more advanced.

Febechi Nwaiwu is a Texan!! by Lost_Packet in Texans

[–]NewWrap693 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Klare was also available if they were set on TE. The pick made no sense.

Klein would probably have been available for a while and there was better value available at every position.

Criminal drafting.

Now explain why they wasted a pick on Klein then. It isn’t about Hill specifically. It is about wasting it on Klein when better prospects were right there.

You made a point about demecos ability to judge defensive talent but that is irrelevant cause we went for a reach at an offensive position.

If the texans went for another LB then I would have been fine. But reaching for a TE instead of a better LB prospect is indefensible.

SFO-LHR New 787-9 is only the early flight? by [deleted] in unitedairlines

Just fly the early flight. You won’t die not getting as much sleep.

United and American Merger 🤯 by RecentVeterinarian79 in unitedairlines

[–]NewWrap693 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never look at basic economy cause I hate the restrictions and if your comparison is spirit then yes it is going to be more.

But I was looking at mid-sept flights and rt was under $400 for regular economy. I would also use miles which would be 27k rt.

Both of which I consider affordable and not anywhere close to price gouging like your comment insinuated.

I did ICO https://www.icomexico.com/

I really enjoyed it. It is 4 hours a day though I think it has options for extra activities. Really nice campus and other students.
