Most people buy stocks and hope they go up.
Smart money sells puts… and gets paid to wait.
Stocks: You pay full price, sit on capital, and pray the chart is nice to you.
Options (short puts): You collect premium upfront, define your risk, and only buy the stock if it drops to a price you already like.
It’s the difference between chasing the market… and making the market pay you for the privilege of owning something later.
While everyone else is averaging up, you’re getting paid to set your own entry.
That’s not gambling.
That’s strategy.
Who’s still buying shares the hard way?
