congrats on the payraises. I earned a half hearted pat on the back (already knew coming in I wasnt getting any direct pay raise from my employer for getting my MBA)

i already sold my bullish positions on oil but no way would I consider a bearish position at this point

I think wheeling into stocks with cash secured puts is a very under used strategy. Many use buy limit orders but why not use a cash secured put instead? Say you want to buy 100 shares of stock A for $100 when its trading for 102. Instead of setting a buy limit order for $100 you sell cash secured puts for $100 and pocket premium if it does or does not drop to $100.

anyone still in chainlink? I got in and out for 100% gains during the initial pandemic dip but I'm just now realizing how much it flew since then

another strategy to help your T holdings is selling covered calls while using your shares as leverage.

one of my favorites is transferring my points to Hyatt.
its a 1:1 transfer but Hyatt points can get you rooms that worth ATLEAST 2x the value.
For example transfer 30K ($300) of Chase points to Hyatt and redeem for a free 30K point room... you can easily find a hotel and date where the room would cost atleast 2x ($600) if you tried to book that room by any other means

i started to jump in today but seen a suspicious amount of put bids still rolling on the tape.

thanks for the responses
so by subscription level there is a way to easily produce your scorp tax filings out of quickbooks?

This is in California. Wife is starting a single member s-corp for a clinical therapy practice. We are trying to decide how we should handle the administrative side of things (accounting/bookkeeping/taxes and s-crop fees/payroll).
By chance does anyone have something similar and handle all of the admin tasks on their own? Im trying to figure out how much time and hassle this would be.
thanks

one thing you should also do when starting off with credit is try to open multiple cards that you plan on just holding onto indefinitely so you can start building some aging in your credit profile. You dont have to use them besides like once every 4 months ago to keep them from shutting it down for inactivity.
Lets say you only get one card and 5 years later you get another card... your average age of accounts will plummet to 2.5 years which could have a noticeable impact on your credit score.
But lets say you got 5 cards and 5 years later you get a 6th... your average age drops to only 4.16 years.
