Mark Yegge's "$50k/Year" Secret (Is it a TRAP?)
Manage episode 520199647 series 2491403
@coveredcalls
This video investigates the popular "passive income" strategy promoted by Mark Yegge, who claims to make $50,000 a year without a job. We're asking the critical question: Is his covered call method a real path to wealth, or is it a trap that underperforms the market?
In my opinion, selling covered calls is a flawed strategy that is virtually guaranteed to make you less money over the long term. In this deep dive, I'll present data comparing the Covered Call Index (BXM) to the S&P 500, which suggests this strategy can underperform by as much as 6% annually. We'll analyze Mark's claims and break down why simply buying and holding stock is often the superior approach.
If this analysis saves you from a costly mistake, please like the video and subscribe for more honest financial reviews.
