Here's a secret the wealthy will never say out loud:


They don't sell their best shares. Ever.
I plan to hold my core $VOO / $Q until I die.
My kids inherit them at a stepped up cost basis... meaning all those gains? Taxed at basically zero.
Meanwhile I'm selling puts against those same shares for cash flow the whole time.
Income now. Appreciation forever. Taxes drastically reduced.
Selling portfolio secured puts let you generate the income WITHOUT ever touching the golden goose.
