"But what happens when the market crashes 50%, Brandon?"
Nothing.

My ratios are ALWAYS in check. I never sell more puts than my base portfolio could comfortably cover, even after a massive fall.

So a 50% crash doesn't margin call me. Doesn't force me to sell. Doesn't wipe me out.
You know what it actually does?

Puts every great company on sale & makes put premiums the fattest they've been in years.

The crash isn't what kills people.
Being over leveraged with no plan is...

Elon Musk dropped a simple but powerful sleep tip.

Eating or drinking (especially alcohol) right before bed is one of the worst things you can do.

It causes subtle heartburn, wrecks sleep quality, and damages your esophagus over time.

Stop at least 2-3 hours before bed, your sleep and health will improve dramatically.

Small change. Big results.

What’s one evening habit you changed that improved your sleep?

Long term investing in Stocks & Real Estate helped grow our net worth from ($100,000) to almost $8,000,000

In 20+years

But now selling options will take over the next phase of our lives

We will generate cash flow without touching ANY of our long term assets

Canada's collapse into a 3rd world country is almost complete.

Besides everything else, just look how littered the whole park is with garbage.

Why is this acceptable??

🚨 CHARLIE KIRK NAILED IT FLAWLESSLY:

"It's not Islamophobia to notice that a man who wants to globalize the intifada is about to run America's largest and once greatest city. It's not Islamophobia to notice that Muslims want to import values into the West that seek to destabilize our civilization...It's cultural suicide to stay silent."

Do NOT let this pro-Islam communist tell us who we are and what to do!

"Islamists do not believe in freedom of speech, period. You cannot question Muhammad, you cannot make fun of him, you cannot question the state."

"Islam is not compatible with Western civilization, period. I'm not talking about individual. We're talking about the macro ideology where many of them gather together and what that metastasizes into."

He was so spot-on 🙏🏻

For those that won't take the time to watch Mamdani's speech, just know he also took a direct shot at Elon:

"We see a city of contradictions within a nation of contradictions. We see the wealthiest country in the history of the world, one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more."

This is clearly designed to get people to dislike Elon and think he's bad for America which is the height of stupidity. Life is NOT a zero-sum game. Elon's wealth creation (mostly tied up in his companies, btw) is in NO WAY the reason we have pockets of food insecurity or wealth inequality

Elon has directly and indirectly created industries that have provided for millions of families and raised living standards for many more. Elon's "hunger for more" is actually more ambition directed at solving hard technical problems to make our world a better, safer place and to make life multiplanetary to preserve the light of consciousness, creating millions of jobs through multiple tiers of the supply chains

America was built by capitalist institutions and incentives - credible property rights, low barriers to productive activity, reliable contract enforcement and a culture that supports achievement through voluntary means

I'd also add that the US already redistributes enormous resources and despite this, food insecurity rates have not gone to zero

Mamdani is a wolf in sheep's clothing. Elon said it best, if Mamdani's policies are put into place at scale, it will be a catastrophic decline in living standards for everyone

To the Americans:

I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.

And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:

You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.

This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.

Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.

This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.

But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.

This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.

And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:

Thank God for the United States.

Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.

Long may your admirable country dominate the world.

Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.

May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.

Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.

Thank God for the USA.

Happy 250th.

WARNING: Longer post (but worth reading or bookmarking for later).

Your life has seasons.

Each one is unique. Characterized by its own distinct desires, struggles, opportunities, and identity.

But one reflection I've had recently is just how easy it is to completely disassociate with the present season.

To give all your time and energy toward a longing for some nostalgic memory of a prior season or an anticipation for some beautiful state of a future season.

You look back at the past and all you see is sunshine. Because it all worked out. You forget (or glaze over) the struggle you endured. You're here today. You made it. You're alive. You're doing fine.

You look forward at the future and dream on what could be. You'll have so much more. More freedom. More purpose. More health. More deep connection. More everything.

The past is beautiful and the future feels limitless. So, logically, you slowly start to treat everything about the present as the bridge. A dash connecting your past and your future. A gap to be crossed as quickly as possible.

Everything you do today is in anticipation of some eventual end state.

I'm doing this now, so that I can have that later.

Unfortunately, the danger of that dissociation with the present is significant. You may spend your entire life living for a future that has a decidedly mirage-like property. You inch closer, but when it's right in front of you, it disappears and reappears on the horizon.

You may spend your entire life skipping through the present, deferring your presence, your joy, and your very humanity to a future that never comes.

In a classic French fable, a young boy is gifted with a magic ball of golden thread. He's told that if he simply pulls on the thread, time will leap forward. The catch, of course, is that once it's pulled, it can never be put back.

The young boy takes advantage of the newfound powers. Each time he's faced with a boring day at school, a frustrating set of chores, or a scolding from his parents, he pulls the thread, skipping through to the good parts.

As an adult, he continues, leaping through mundane struggles in his marriage, the friction of having a newborn, and the boredom at work. He finds himself pulling on the thread more and more, avoiding even the most minor inconveniences of his life.

But when he wakes up one day and sees an old man looking back at him in the mirror, he's filled with regret. He realizes in that moment that as he chose to skip through the boredom, struggles, and friction, so too did he miss the real texture of being alive.

How often do we all do the same? How easily do we default into this disassociation? Disconnecting from the present in anticipation of some future.

A mentor recently asked me this:

"Where are you going and why are you in such a rush?"

It hit me hard.

And to be honest, I haven't stopped replaying those words since he said them.

Why are you in such a rush?

The world wants you to rush into everything. Rushed decisions. Rushed conversations. Rushed relationships. Rushed timelines.

In doing so, you slowly relinquish your agency. You give up your claim on your own life. Surrender authorship to a pen that was never even yours.

In a world that wants you to rush, the ultimate act of rebellion is presence.

Be in the season you're in. Don't romanticize the past, don't fantasize the future. Be here. Be now. Be in this. All of its texture, depth, and struggle. All of its joy, tension, and pain. Sit with the uncertainty. Become friends with it. Fall in love with it.

Because every single thing you do today is something your younger self dreamed of and something your older self will wish they could go back and do.

The good old days are happening, right now.

And the next time you find yourself skipping through the present, remember these words:

Where are you going and why are you in such a rush?

Once you have found how to make consistent income by trading options…

There is no going back

I have made almost $300,000 trading options in 2026 so far

Most of this income is by selling monthly puts and buying LEAPS call options

You can’t “unsee” this type of income 💰
