I think they are different tools to be leveraged on by different investors, as long as they fully understand how they work and the risks involved. I wouldn’t say stocks are superior than options even with these gains as these are not the norm. For most investors, options offer greater returns at lesser risks than stocks and I am still trying to find time to properly learn how to leverage on options.

Time is often important for any investment tool. We need time for growth and we need time for the 8th wonder of the world- compounding. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be this wise saying of time in the market is more important than timing the market. Timing the market is something that even experts can get it wrong.

I haven’t made such impressive returns in percentage from stocks. However, on top of percentage to evaluate if our investment can even beat inflation, I think the absolute return is also important. If a 100% return only yield $1000, I rather even a 10% return with $2000.

# Do You Have Experience Where Stock Gains > Options?
