Hey everyone. My situation is a bit complicated as I am medically disabled and need to generate an income in the safest manner possible. I was fortunate to inherit an account with interactive brokers with about $300k in it. I am intrigued by selling covered calls for income. I am wondering what...

Oil is going up because the banks are using all the free govt money to buy it, same with stocks.

So this is all because Goldman is a Jewish firm, and we are all jealous of them?? You are race baiting in a way that would make Al Sharpton jealous. It is now clear you know you are wrong and are pulling out all the stops to prove your anemic point. By the way, what is your point...
