Thoroughly enjoyable read

I am halfway through this book and I find it a thoroughly enjoyable and informative book on the topic. I sometimes look forward to getting back to it. I don't find his reference to his own football career or to his own success objectionable at all. On the contrary, it's enjoyable. He brings sometimes complex and therefore, perhaps threatening, concepts down to the basic level and explains them quite thorougly. All in all, I'm cool with the book and the author. I'm glad that I purchased it. Hope this helps.

Pro's Lessons On How To Trade Options

Dr. J. (Author) is a seasoned pro that wrote this book without hype and extremely rare examples of huge profits that very very few people normally make. Rather, he discusses both risk and reward. He seasons his book with a good amount of humor and insights into the life of a big-time trader that has survived decades at the top levels of the options business. If you don't read this book and do trade options - you're just foolish! I know a bit about it. I've held a Series 7 stock broker's license. And I learned a lot from this well written book!

Money making Advice

I am owner/manager of a luxury car dealership in Northern California. I`ve seen the dot com mania send stocks to the moon, only to crash back down to earth. One week I`m selling Porsches to a paper millionaire, the next month I`m buying the car back from repo. Because of that experience, I`m a grind it out sort of investor, not day trader. Since I invest for the long-term, I didn`t know if options were for me, but Jon Najarian`s book changed my mind. I use several of the tactics outlined in the book "How I Trade Options" and am happy to say they`ve worked just as advertised. I especially liked the chapter on LEAPS and now almost exclusively invest with these securities. I can`t watch my portfolio throughout the day, but LEAPs help me cut my exposure to things I didn`t anticipate, while leaving me exposed to the upside. I think anyone that seriously wants to limit risk should read this book and use these strategies.
