Crack kills! I worked for Charles Schwab Options Department for 7 years. The only entity that made money in the long run was the house - I.e. Charles Schwab. The loser, crack head gamblers eventually lost their arse! Don’t f’ing tell me different, mofo. I lived it. Save your money and buy groceries. Better investment!!!!

Let me make a point here. The lower commissions we have now were/are a game changer.

I was with OptionsXpress when they were bought out by Charles Schwab around 2010. The brokerage fees to trade options back then were extremely high. Today, they are a small fraction of what they were in 2010. Commission/fees are so small now that I basically don't even notice them. There is a big difference between now and 2010 IMO. Option trading and beating the market, which is the goal, is very doable.
