Well, greed as potential reason is at least a better explainer than you saying in summary "I have no idea wtf is going on".
Don't project your utter cluelessness onto others, please. It's obvious that complexity results in total incomprehension in your (putative) mind, but that's not the case for everyone; some of us are quite comfortable with concepts larger than "fight it, eat it, flee it, or fuck it" which you appear to be confined to. A hint, assuming you're smart enough to take it: stop creeping on my posts whenever you see them. You're nowhere near clever enough to compete in a battle of wits, so you'll just get more butthurt every time you do.
Just because you have dabbled a little in the options space makes you all of a sudden a guru? Funny, given that according to some of your earlier posts that I read up on, you did not seem to have the slightest clue. Now you play the expert on all and everything, too funny. So far you have not provided any alternative view other than attacking me once again. And don't worry, nobody is following you around, no need to be paranoid. If I responded to several of your unrelated posts then that's coincidental and probably a reflection that someone disagreed with you. If you can't tolerate that perhaps you should start your own forum where membership agreements stipulate that everyone must agree with the sailor.
Ah, more delusion from the delusional. Not surprising, but - these types will continue to dig deeper even after the hole they're in starts falling in on them... Tell me, are these "options" that you saw in this thread in the room with us now? Can you point to a spot on this stock certificate where they touched you inappropriately? Yes, yes! Please tell us how the evil sailor attacked you by causing you to bloviate... did he force your little fingers to spill the contents of your one weakly-fizzing braincell onto the keyboard? What "alternative view" was he supposed to provide for you, absent bright crayons and a large sheet of poster board?
You are reaching, brother. Don't be so self obsessed. It's not about you. Back to the thread topic,shall we...
Oh, your inability to stop crawling after me while desperately trying to come up with something even mildly insulting is very much about me - to you. Not getting enough attention or validation at home, are you? Any degree of it - even revulsion - is sweeter to you than its absence? That's pretty serious damage there. And yeah, you're dismissed. Go back to licking doorknobs, and stop trying to interact with normal human beings; it's just going to highlight your endless list of deficiencies. P.S.: Um... I've changed my mind: please do keep posting. The blindly unaware self-ownage - like admitting, in public, that someone learning options in several years is unbelievable to you - is better than anything Moe, Larry, and Curly ever managed. (Whether it's complete ossification of the mental faculties with age or their insufficiency in the first place is immaterial. I just want it immortalized here, so that future neurology students can refer to it under the rubric of "the awful things that can happen to even vaguely human cerebral mechanisms" and pause in shock and pity.)
..."with concepts larger than "fight it, eat it, flee it, or fuck it"..." That's a genius line that seems familiar, in terms of thinking like a caveman. Where did that come from?
Oh, the classic "four Fs of survival"; evolutionary behavioral patterns. Some shrink coined a less-pithy and more academic term, but you know college students... M.W.'s responses to me have never risen above that grunting pithecanthropian level, so it seemed reasonable to call it out.
