Looks like I am going to be called on july 11 for 100 of my shares but I am fine with that. The rest of my 600 Appl shares I think I am going to ladder the covered calls so I do can monitor my position and keep the exact shares I want. So something like this hold 2 options always, and then ladder 4 others.Asset-Grinderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10563675122942032357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093516850393706942.post-65697848573953444612014-07-06T06:40:08.687-07:002014-07-06T06:40:08.687-07:00You had a great month!

I've always wanted to get into a brewery business. Here in Austin, these breweries are popping up like weeds. There's been at least 10 pop up in the last 3 years alone. <br /><br />I'm a big fan of options, although I usually sell puts. I did, however, sell some calls against INTC since I didn't mind losing the position. I think if it's an over-sized position or a position you don't mind getting called away, then it's a smart idea to generate extra income. <br /><br />Take care.All About Interesthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13412467028446944315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093516850393706942.post-31487679206160521122014-07-05T20:47:44.523-07:002014-07-05T20:47:44.523-07:00AG, $600+ is a great dividend passive income and t...AG, $600+ is a great dividend passive income and take you closer to FI sooner :)<br /><br />That's an awesome looking home also and would love to get a glass brewed from there ;)<br /><br />Keep up the good work,<br /><br />Best wishes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09144751961637697027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093516850393706942.post-80402478230544703092014-07-03T08:48:24.142-07:002014-07-03T08:48:24.142-07:00I also disagree that the house does not belong in ...I also disagree that the house does not belong in the Net Worth calc. If you believe it does not belong then you must believe that someone with no equity in a house is in the same financial position as that same person if they had substantial equity. I have 2 houses, one a rental that has some equity and rents for about break even. The house I live in was bought in 2010 and has substantial equity, partly because of decent down payment, partly very smart buy, partly market appreciation. If I were to put it on the market today, I would ask more than 200K above what I paid and I have not put in any $ beyond basic upkeep. While my house is not paid for like A-G, well done sir, I could sell it today and with the net proceeds buy another perfectly acceptable house and be mortgage free. At the current rate, I should have it paid off in less than 10 years and at that point should be able to empty nest downsize into a very nice house that is "only" 3000 square feet and pocket at least 500K.<br /><br />How exactly am I not in a better financial position than if I had no equity in my houses?AndrewsDadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03060145267580346676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093516850393706942.post-56715319636230065832014-07-02T21:02:27.188-07:002014-07-02T21:02:27.188-07:00Thanks for droppin by DM.

Thats why I separate my networth in two categories. Investments and then my home. Upkeep on it is fairly minimal as its a newer home. However my commercial property I lease out I have put under investments because it makes me money and the tenants pay for all taxes,maintenance and repairs.<br /><br />Thanks for dropping by!Asset-Grinderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10563675122942032357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093516850393706942.post-8170751011470294742014-07-02T18:15:49.838-07:002014-07-02T18:15:49.838-07:00IMO, your house doesn't belong in your Net Wor...IMO, your house doesn't belong in your Net Worth calc. - You gotta live somewhere! <br />And, with taxes (perpetually) rising and upkeep, it's not a money maker unless you can rent part of it out.<br />So, I'm much more interested in tracking the income generated from investments.

I invested in the IPO and that did not go as planned so a taste of bitters in the mouth. Is the plan just to be a local pub that brews its own or is there the plan / hope for distribution to restaurants, pubs and retail?<br /><br />My net worth month... not so well. I track house values on Zillow and both went down, one by 40K, just because its worth a lot and for whatever reason, the market moved south. Stock and such have been doing fine but not enough to cover the 40K drop. So it was a net loss on net worth for the month but still happy with the overall results for 2014.AndrewsDadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03060145267580346676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093516850393706942.post-33092245480139347902014-07-02T08:38:41.266-07:002014-07-02T08:38:41.266-07:00I like your idea of puts and will have to do some ...I like your idea of puts and will have to do some more thinking in that strategy.

I have years of trading experience but little experience with options. Right now I have a laddered approach in my calls. So even if I were to be called on half my APPL position I would be fine and welcome it. That way, i would enjoy the premium, still hold some of the stock, enjoy the stock run up and finally a real exit point for some of my position.

I'm a fan of options strategies although I usually stick to puts because I don't want the companies I own called away. Although if I'm looking to exit a position then I'll go with selling calls. That building looks pretty cool for the brewery. I always liked ivy covered buildings. It looks like things are going really well with the financing. Hopefully I can make it up that direction in a few years once y'all are up and running!Passive Income Pursuithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947101854482544346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093516850393706942.post-22824122524570024582014-07-02T06:18:12.539-07:002014-07-02T06:18:12.539-07:00That's a great month.

My initial thought of between 100-150k after much debate in my own head was too much of a gamble, especially since it will take awhile to receive anything back from it.<br /><br />I think u like the pizza idea cause u r an entrepreneur by heart! Maybe u should start something like that on a small scale for fun. Like 2 days out of the month at lil festivals where you dish artisan pizza coupled with financial advice, lol.

I'll take that every month, if I could. :)<br /><br />Great looking brewery there. That's such a cool project. I'd love to be involved in a local project like that one day, but that'll have to wait until I'm far, far past FI and have the available capital for something like that. I've actually always had a pipe dream of having a small, local pizzeria for some reason. Probably wouldn't make much of a profit, but I always thought it would be kind of fun. Don't know why. <br /><br />Keep up the great work!<br /><br />Best wishes.

I wonder if the market is becoming quenched (ha!). one of them is in a newly not dry town. They must sell 40% of revenue in food to retain their license. Hmmm free beer with hotdog anyone? Good luck, other than the occasional free beer does your investment have any perks?(name a beer after your blog for instance?)
