Mail Block: Listener questions and comments:

• Question from Steamboat Willie - What would you say is the best buy and hold strategy using options? I am interested in using some options in my retirement account but I do not have the time to manage them on a daily basis. I would like to put something on and only check on it every few weeks or months. I am mostly interested in large cap stocks, although I am not averse to dipping my toes into alternative assets such as oil.
