re: How many of you are true Bogleheads?

BigFella I read your Put question thread a few weeks ago and wanted to respond but forgot. Anyway, I cash flow the market too with monthly covered calls & puts. I generally sell during expiration week and the week after for the following month options. For covered calls I sell 10-15% out-of-the-money calls after 2 consecutive up days for the stock (which most times guarantees it wont execute). And for Puts I do the opposite except I may sell closer to current price if I really want to own it. Also I only do this with relatively stable stocks that I want to own long term. Like you, the long term goal is to end up with a lot of dividend paying shares for retirement purposes.

This generates a nice monthly cash flow for me.
