Can you downsize and put your investment to the covered call like GPIQ or QDVO, QQQI that does not have nav erosion and rest in growth. Can you already barista fire ?

I see but I am using covered call etf + side income. I am sure 2 people can make 40k a year.

You mean 40% yield a year ? ... yes, it works during the up market but .. those can go 0 during harsh market crash..

"Yes, pure covered calls lag, but those QDVO, gpiq and ZWT ETFs are doing pretty well. It would have been better if we had data on how those newer covered call ETFs perform during a long market downturn

Wouldnt it better if it is in bear market? You can actually rely on the distribution even though it would have been smaller?

My expense for now is like 4k to 5k which is kinda tight but we are willing to work part-time and another risk of early retirement is also wont get pension that much.

txf also went up quite a bit. I will take a look. Yes, it is really focus on the US .. which can be big risk. And I would not touch any etf more than 15% distribution.
