Who is he?
A retiree living on savings and passive income. He values capital preservation and has no desire to watch the market all day — but fixed-deposit returns couldn't keep up with inflation. After attending the free webinar, he enrolled in Option Landlord Masterclass — Foundation.
What did he do?
- Started with USD 12,800 in capital, trading only the rent-collecting strategy (Calendar Spread) on SPX500 index options
- Followed the "wait-by-the-tree" approach — the patient "wait for the perfect setup" ambush — opening positions only when every condition was met, acting just 5 times all year
- Pre-defined the maximum loss on every trade — capital safety always comes first
What was the result?
+60%Full-year return
≈ +USD 7,680Full-year profit on USD 12,800 of capital
5 tradesTotal trades for the year — no need to watch the market daily
What's the lesson?
- More effort doesn't mean more reward — knowing how to wait is the real skill of rent collection
- Set your loss limit first: peace of mind when you win, a known number when you lose
