Stop letting volatility scare you, learn to profit from it.
10 years of trading, this is what I know:
• VIX under 20 → sell puts normally
• VIX above 20 → sell puts aggressively
• VIX above 30 → buy LEAPs
• VIX above 40 → go all in
• VIX above 50 → generational opportunity
Fear is just premium waiting to be collected.
Robert Gallery played 8 seasons in NFL.

Dark thoughts. Constant ringing.
The same symptoms that killed Junior Seau and Aaron Hernandez.
One thought played in his head on repeat:
"𝘐 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘱 𝘪𝘯 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘮𝘪-𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘬."
In 2021, he couldn't take it anymore.
So he got on a plane to Mexico.
To try something radical:
𝗜𝗯𝗼𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗲.
The last option he had left.
36 hours later...
The constant noise? Gone.
The dark thoughts? Silent.
"It saved my life," he said.
"I'm not anxious all the time. I can go for a run and be thankful that I'm alive."
He co-founded Athletes for Care to help other brain-injured athletes find help.
Eight seasons of football nearly killed him.
One trip to Mexico gave him his life back.
A whole life insurance policy for a healthy 30 year old costs $440 a month.
A term life policy with the exact same $500,000 coverage costs $21 a month.
That's a $419 difference every month.
If you bought the term policy and invested that $419 difference into an S&P 500 index fund from age 30 to 65, you'd have over $1.6 million sitting in your account.
And your family is still fully covered the entire time.
Whole life insurance is a scam.
Citadel sent a cease and desist to a guy explaining how electricity is priced.
I had a firm try to legally bury me in 2010 for starting my own business.
Same playbook -- it's not about protecting secrets. It's about protecting silence.
Wall Street doesn't sue because you're wrong.
