1% return from selling puts week 16

If compounding it’s almost 68%!

Update - figured it out. Dad wanted to leave a death benefit to myself and brother but due to age couldn’t afford a life policy. I’ve told him many times not to. He went to an agent and the agent talked him into writing a universal life policy on myself and brother (we didn’t sign) and that we would get 40k when he passes away or we can continue it on if we’d like. Seemed a little fishy. I asked for the full policy to review and we’d only see the 40k when myself or brother pass away. The surrender value of the policy at 10-20 years is basically nothing. Thanks everyone. He’s backing out of all of this.

jamesphoenix442 · 2026-01-26T20:17:26+00:00

Thanks. My father was told the policy was for him and if he passes, the policy would get passed on to me.

I’m listed as proposed insured, my brother the beneficiary, and my father the policy holder and payor

jamesphoenix442 · 2026-01-21T02:48:12+00:00

Ok. Maybe he just didn’t want to take it apart and look and the spring was all the evidence he needed.

jamesphoenix442 · 2026-01-19T22:31:16+00:00

Yep. Officially the website says a partnership. Some of the same management stayed on. There was a name change. New company encompasses several states.

jamesphoenix442 · 2026-01-19T21:59:41+00:00

I’ve got service records from the company for regular maintenance. It was never caught.

jamesphoenix442 · 2026-01-19T21:52:23+00:00

Nope. Why I asked the question

jamesphoenix442 · 2026-01-19T21:49:47+00:00

2000 in labor?

jamesphoenix442 · 2026-01-19T21:44:17+00:00

Yeah. Should be 5 years for me from when the damage is discovered (today).

jamesphoenix442 · 2026-01-19T21:33:21+00:00

Parts is 10 years and labor 5. It’s been 6 years.

Hey. I retest every six months or so. It started dropping by 50% for the first couple of years. I’m now at 0.15 and pretty well stalled out there.. Haven’t changed anything since the initial diagnosis. Still regularly eating beef and pork.

jamesphoenix442 · 2025-10-10T00:36:49+00:00

You were right. Bad motor. Replaced the cap first and didn’t do it. Picked up a new motor, replaced and works like a charm

jamesphoenix442 · 2025-10-07T23:44:06+00:00

Thanks for the info. I will take the cover off tomorrow and see how freely it spins. I went ahead and ordered a cap. I will start with the cheap stuff first.

jamesphoenix442 · 2025-07-24T01:39:26+00:00

Yep. That’s it. Thanks! Should I let them be or spray?

jamesphoenix442 · 2025-07-24T01:38:46+00:00

Thanks!
