I have some in the Roth IRA and some in the trust...I have optioned them over the years for income (covered calls). Every dog has his day!! RING and GDXJ both give off 1-2% dividend...Nothing to write home about. Think I may have 200 shares RING and GDXJ...100 of SLV. Would it be crazy to option a couple of these if the metals rise another 5-10%? Maybe option 100 here...100 there. This would be way out of the money about 6-9 months out. Just gain a small income. I have tried to hold for insurance purposes...But I always like that income from the options. Will I kick myself if they get called away?? Just putting it out there...Food for though over the weekend.
