On 1-21-19 I added 2 shares of ALGN to my Robinhood taxable stock portfolio.

Gold presented a good opportunity to sell short options premium recently (Summer 2019).
The IVR (Implied Volatility Rank) was almost at 100% when I placed a short strangle options trade in the GLD etf.

One of the philosophies Cashflow Cultivators explore is streamlining our life by getting rid of things we are not using at the moment. The accumulation and hoarding of useless and/or not used items, otherwise called junk, is a slow wealth sapper. Instead of keeping these unused relics of the past, purge them to squeeze the liquidity out and invest the money in diversified investments.
Roth IRA accounts are versatile tax-advantaged retirement account financial products that are funded out of pocket by you with your post-tax income.
