I think somebody wants all the $6.50 options to expire worthless.

And $3 seems unlikely but not impossible for BBIG.

I sell puts to buy stock at a discount.
Then when I have stock, I sell calls against it.

The last 3 months I have a great record of selling puts which get exercised (about 75%) and calls that expire worthless (about 90%).
It's easy, all you have to do is pick a stock that's going down and watch it keep going down.
But I'm losing less money than if I'd just bought the stock outright.

Picked up 1k of Mavis @ 6.50 with another buy for 1k set at 6.25.

ok brains, I can throw $~265 into my account that's been taking a beating like the rest of us.

I can use that to get 90 shares of SENS, which takes me to 500 shares (so I can sell more calls).
OR i can get ~40 shares of MVIS. Which brings me to 180 shares and I've not sold calls on it.

neither really lowers my DCA by a crazy amount for either share, cause I buy high!

No because to receive the shares you would need to "buy" the calls. That would go against the pps.
You want to "sell" puts to receive shares. because if the contract expires worthless (OTM) you still keep the premium.

DEC 23rd $6.50 puts are 0.50 right now, which would get you 100 shares for $600 plus a $1 or 0.65 depending on your broker.
Share price must close below $6.50 on the 23rd, if not you KEEP the $50 (0.50 x 100).

Klann dealers seem to be recommending it for W123 and later, but I thought it worked for W110,W111, W114, W115 etc.
Looks like the Klann is over a thousand now, and if you can find the Miller/Mopar version (made by Klann) it's more like $1500-1600.

I forget, does Ponton have a regular rear suspension or does it have that compensator thingy?
I don't remember how the compensator spring comes out. Never worked on one of those myself.

If I understand this forum post correctly, somebody bought a Chinese copy for $19 on eBay last year.

Or you can try to write a $3 12-17 put on BBIG for 35 cents and either make $35 or get 100 shares of BBIG next weekend.

The whole purpose of that compensator was to keep a swing axle rear end from acting like a swing axle and killing you.
IIRC it wasn't until 1968 that they got rid of the swing axle and replaced it with a proper IRS (which was pretty advanced for the 1960s, but had no silly engineering tricks to make it work).

@PepePewPew cool, i did it! sold my first PUT for BBIG $3 next week. If it drops I get the shares and could sell calls on the block, or if not I got $33 (basically 10%!) for a week's time. Seems worth doing.

Semi gloss black seems to be the color.  It looks like my dad had painted it some grey  I wasn't sure if it was original or not.  I found semi gloss black on some of the steering stuff. It was under many layers of dirt and grease.

Is there ever a reason not to contribute to a Roth IRA in a particular year. I did a bad thing and tried timing the market and haven't contributed the max to my Roth yet, figuring a FJB presidency would hurt the market.

The fund is VTSAX. It's $116.58 as of now. I suppose I could wait til the deadline May 15th 2022 to contribute to 2021 hoping it goes down, or it could just go higher more by that point.
