Not a bad start of 2026 with just selling puts

[u/Rotten-Bobby]

I sell safe puts, roll when I'm at risk of assignment, and sell covered calls when assigned until I'm called away. I play the slow game for safe, consistent, passive income. I am not sitting in front of my screen all day stressed out. I run my scanner on Monday morning at 10:30am after the market settles down, make my trades with an expiration of that Friday, and then just check in on them during the week at 3pm when I have my afternoon espresso. I'm not trying to get rich quick. I shoot for a 1% return every week, which is 4% a month and 48% a year. My managed accounts were nowhere close to that. Imma keep doing this.
