Are selling options passive? Yes and no. They do require some learning and the right frame of mind. Now dividends are truly passive. Once you own the stock or ETF the money rolls in with each distribution. Literally no effort on your part. In a lot of ways, it’s like interest that is paid on a savings account. It just appears like clockwork.
When you combine premiums from options with dividends you can earn a good income from a moderate portfolio. You can do this in a safe way by sticking to a safe strategy. No need to take big risks or put your investments at risk.
My hope is that you learn from me and do not make the mistakes I made during my journey of learning the correct way to sell options.
