Hello everyone,
I'm a Boglehead-style investor focused on long-term strategies and global diversification, without attempting to "time the market." I believe in the use of leverage and am exploring the concept of synthetic longs as an alternative to stocks for long-term investing.
Since I'm starting a bit later at 33 years old, I'm considering the lifecycle investment theory, which involves starting with leverage and gradually de-leveraging as I approach retirement. My goal isn't to outperform the market but to maximize my investment and make my cash work harder for me.
Currently, I'm experimenting with some paper trades to test out the options strategy before making any changes to my portfolio.
I'm seeking advice or ideas on how to implement this approach. Has anyone managed a similar portfolio? How do you handle it?
