About this ebook
There are many goals to investing our money in the stock market. Three of the most important are beating inflation, creating a paycheck, and building generational wealth.
I love being an income investor and aiming for 8-10% returns from my portfolio, paid for in cash with dividends.
However, I can sprinkle a few options trading to increase my annual returns by over 30%.
This extra income ensures I can ultimately withstand any inflation that comes my way. Plus, options trading adds a little excitement to days when I don't receive dividends.
Together, I get a consistent paycheck (dividends) and amazing bonuses (options). Life is good.

01 Dividend Investing with a Splash of Options Trading
Who doesn’t love getting a paycheck? Receiving our weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly paychecks is perhaps one of the greatest feelings you can have while in the workforce.
Do you know what's even better? Getting a paycheck when you didn’t work for it is much more exhilarating. That’s the magic of income investing; it allows you to build a custom paycheck for your lifestyle.
The magic of dividends. We will still need a paycheck as we transition into retirement. We can sell the assets in our 401K or use dividends to pay us continuously.
Become Middle-Class PLUS
I prefer dividends because I never have to sell shares to generate income. The dividends keep hitting my account, and I decide whether to spend, save, or reinvest them.
However, even in retirement, we must remain vigilant not to fall victim to inflation. Inflation and increases in the cost of living are our number one concern as retirees.
The best way to stay ahead of inflation is to aim for an 8-10% return on your money. You can achieve this income level with an income-investing portfolio—while sacrificing growth.
There is a way to grow your portfolio faster than the inflation rate while keeping your money invested in dividend-paying stocks. The answer is to add some options trading to your dividend portfolio.
The magic of options trading. There is only one reason to trade options—to make money. However, the reason we need the additional capital is entirely dependent on our personal situations.
Create Money, Spend Money, Grow Money
We must start with US Treasuries to truly understand the power of options trading. Let’s say we invested $20,000 in US Treasuries at 4%. That account would give us an annual income of $800.
If we had $20,000 invested in our income investing portfolio at 10%,
